Dear friends

Because the situation around COVID -19 is not improving and hygiene measures are great, we have decided to move this year s tournament to next year.

For all of us, we have prepared at least an alternative variant of the tournament in the form of an e-tournament. Now we are still discussing the form and possible rewards (variants of multiple e-tournaments).

We believe that you will understand our situation and we will all meet in good health 9-10. 10. 2021


Best wishes

The organizing committee of Budapest Open have decided for the event to be held at the time it was originally planned, 2020.09.19-2020.09.20.

We hope that you will honor the event with your participation.

For the event to be safely conducted we would like to ask everyone’s help, cooperation, and patience. The health of the participants is our top priority during the whole event.

For the safety of all of us, we will introduce the following changes from the prior years:
- We would like to ask every team leader to check the temperature of their team member’s, and if you find any symptoms of Covid19 (fever, coughing, etc…) exclude them from the traveling with you.
- Weighing: Every competitor should bring with them their passports, or ID card. Cadet, junior, U21 and senior will be weighing in t-shirt and karate pants, the weight tolerance is 1kg in this uniform.
- In children’s categories we will only pick some of them randomly, however if they are over their weight category by more than 1kg in karate pants and t-shirt, they will be disqualified.
- Every on-site change, or non participation can only be done for 20 Euros.
- We would like to ask the competitors to only go to the arena the day they are competing, parents, helpers, and the ones who are not competing that day should stay in their accommodation, or explore the beauties of the Hungarian capital. The purpose of this is to keep the number of people in the arena at the lowest possible, therefore lowering the possible risk of infection.
- We would also like to ask the leaders of each team, to pay all the participation fees at the same time regardless of their competitors day of competing. This request also concerns the national teams.
- We would like to ask the medalists to go straight to the podium, and take a seat on the chairs that are there. Right after the writing of the diplomas we will hold the medal ceremony. After this, we would like to ask the competitors to leave the arena to lower the possible risk of infection.

We would like to ask all of you to acknowledge the new rules above helping us to make the event safer and maintain the health of the competitors . [administrator]
