12th Annual Funakoshi Gichin Cup

In less than an hour from the time of this post, the USA JKA AF team will begin tournament competition in Pattaya, Thailand for the 12th Annual Funakoshi Gichin Cup. This is a world class tournament with crazy high levels of competition. The Lafayette Karate Club is very proud to be the home of one of the team members, Lane Nevils. Though he has trained all over the region, Lane was the chief instructor of LKC for over a decade and my first instructor when I started training. As a club, we are very proud to train and compete with Lane and many other members of this USA Team. Best of luck to Ray, Dimitri, Devin, Jovany, Gustavo, Andre, Rami, Khim, and Lane!
