It‘s a pleasure and an honour for me to be able to invite you to visit one of the most beautiful European cities, Oporto, to participate in the OPORTO INTERNATIONAL N.P.K. KARATE OPEN 2016, to be held in Oporto, Portugal, on the 25th of February 2017.

This is the 15th edition of the N.P.K. Open and the 6th international edition and this year we are delighted for welcoming you to Oporto. This event is organized by the Nucleo Português de Karate in cooperation with our National Federation and the City of Oporto.

Last edition, held in 2016, was the most participated event with more than 1000 competitors, from infants to seniors (6 – 60yrs) and this year it is our goal to surpass this number!

I hope that you can come and join us in celebrating Karate together with the most successful Portuguese competitors.

Yours in sport,

Paulo Cardoso
