| | | Republican Championship for men and women - Sofia, 2009 and Regional Championship- Shumen |
| | | On 16.05.2009 in the "Sikonko" hall - Sofia took place the Republican Championship in Karate Kyokushin for men and women in kumite and kata. The competition had excellent organization, provided by the hosts of Kyokushin Karate Club "Kanku-Kai" - Sofia. Some of the strongest competitors of FBKK couldn't take part in the event, due to the unsuitable time in which the championship was held - right after the European Championship and before the World cup. Despite this the audience was able to watch many close matches, most of which ended in vazaari and ipon. Some of the competitors of the youth National team showed a strong performance, not only did they fight on the same level as the men, they also surpass them. This is a good factor for their future in the men National team. | | SK "Kyokushin" - Shumen's team also showed a strong presence, which this year was composed of veterans only.
