1 21st KOI WORLD CUP & TRAINING CAMP July 2015 Istanbul - Turkey

2 Dear Friends, 21st KOBE OSAKA INTERNATIONAL WORLD CUP & TRAINING CAMP 2015 The past years have been difficult for all of us; job losses, insecurity, civil war, terrorism, political division and so on. Many of our members were unable to get visas for events held in Europe and many of our European members had difficulty in travelling to the Far East due to transportation costs. In one way or another, these conditions made it very difficult to find a suitable host for our annual KOI World Cup & Training Camp. I am happy to be able to tell you that we have found a very capable and experienced organiser. The hosting of this prestigious KOI World Cup will be entrusted to Ercument Tasdemir, a WKF Referee and a most dedicated and experienced organiser of hugely successful international events in Turkey in recent years. The Turkish Government has a very open policy as regards visas which in most cases can be obtained on arrival and all our members will now be able to participate. It is the stated goal of KOI to provide the opportunity for people of all ages to have access to safe, high level international competition and to be able to attend seminars designed to enhance their understanding of karate-do and to make new friends. Our competitors will have the chance to compete under the supervision of experienced, honest and competent referees and we intend to ensure that this championship will be a memorable one which will live up to all our ideals in every way. Not only that, but our young people will be able to meet and test their skills against others, in the best way possible, in peace and friendship. This promises to be a major event with many more categories than we have ever had in recent years, including for the first time in KOI, categories for those with disabilities. This is a great opportunity to have a wonderful holiday in a very reasonably priced hotel and a good time with karate friends; I look forward to seeing you in Istanbul in July. Yours sincerely Tommy Morris KOI President
