The city of Accra, Ghana, prepares to host the much-anticipated Karate competition of the African Games from March 7 to 9. Serving as the UFAK Senior Championships, this event is a showcase of unparalleled talent and athleticism, bringing together the continent's finest karate athletes.

In a testament to the event's significance, the competition not only crowns African champions but also acts as a crucial qualifying ground for the teams aiming to represent the continent in the upcoming World Teams Championships in Pamplona later this year. The team categories in the Accra tournament will serve as a battleground where nations compete for the honour of competing in Karate’s biggest event of the year.

With a gathering of the best karate athletes from across the continent, the competition promises to be a spectacle of skill, determination, and sportsmanship. The last edition of the African Games in 2019 in Rabat, Morocco, drew over 200 athletes from 32 countries to the karate competition. Hosts Morocco emerged as the dominant force, clinching the top spot on the final medal table.

As the anticipation builds for this thrilling competition, fans, athletes, and nations alike eagerly await the unfolding of intense karate bouts in Accra.
