Karate Olympics

The David Deaton Karate Studios Karate Olympics, our second all school function of the year, is gearing up to be a great tournament for our students!

Saturday, September 28
Wilson Central High School
419 Wildcat Way Lebanon, TN 37090

All Schools Are Closed For This Tournament

We plan on continuing the spirit of Olympic competition and award Gold, Silver and Bronze medals to our Hendersonville, Brentwood, Lebanon, and Mt. Juliet team members. Also, the school that wins the most medals at the Karate Olympics wins the school trophy, which stays at the winning school for a year.

The purpose of our intramural events (Karate Challenge and Karate Olympics) is to help educate students on tournament competition and help raise funds for Project Sparrow scholarship fund.
