Sweden’s longest running Kendo competition. Since 1978!
Individual shiai
The individual classes are separated by grade, but… the medalists of each open class move up into the next. So this is a great opportunity to take on everyone.
Team Shiai
The 3-man team shiai of SKO is a Kachinuki (勝ち抜き戦) – the winner stays on. If you want to show the world what you are made of, this is the time.
Incomplete teams will be matched with team-less fighters on site.
