News Summary : Last weekend at the Sydney University Aquatic Centre, the Australian Open Karate Championship attracted 397 fighters, an Australian record. The attraction was that for the first time Australia was sending fully sponsored team to the 2015 European Championships in Sweden. Making the team was one of the great attractions and subsequently the record breaking number of fighters.

The Bondi Junction Kyokushin karate school's Chief Instructor 9th Dan John Taylor, felt that, with so many talented fighters in the his school, they had a great chance to gain some spots on the team and put in very strong female team including the current World Champion Ysobel Jarjoura.

With such a prize available the fighting very intense in all divisions. It was nail biting stuff when it came down to the last two fighters in each division with Bondi Junction School having a fighter in each female final.
