LIFEBOOKS AND AFFILIATIONS
There will be three stations:
TABLE 1 - ENTRY FEES AND PAYMENT
TABLE 2 - PROCEDURES FOR GAUTENG CHAMPS ENTRIES
TABLE 3 - KARATE SYNDICATE TEAM JACKET AND PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
ALL competitors are required to have a Syndicate Jacket. It stays the same every year so if purchasing the correct size it will last for a few years.
If your child already has a Syndicate jacket they do not need to order a new one.
New jackets must be ordered on the day (no late orders) and must be paid for on the day - R550 for cash; R575 if paid by credit card (R550 + R25 bank charge). If paying cash - ONLY in the exact amount please. No change will be given.
Sizes are - Kids - 5-6; 7-8; 8-10; 11-12; and Adult - XSmall; Small; Medium; Large; XLarge; 2XL. Samples will be available for sizing on the day.

NB: We desperately need 6-8 parents to assist as manager/coaches for the Novice (coloured belts) divisions at the Champs on Friday 20 March. No experience is required. All the black belts have to officiate as referees and table officials so we are not permitted to act as managers or coaches. If we do not have any volunteers we will have a major problem as we need adults to ensure the kids don’t miss their divisions since we will not be able to assist. The more parents assisting the smoother things will go for the competitors as we gave a very large team (usually the biggest there). Please give your name to Karyn if you are able to assist. You would be required to be there the whole day.
