Part B shall be a medical examination report to be completed by a licensed physician, and is required of competitors who have significant health problems as related in Part A. If the answers to part A are all ‘No’, then part B need not be completed. The medical report must be submitted at the time of registration for a tournament, to the tournament director, for review by the medical director. The medical director will determine if a competitor is or is not medically fit to compete in Kumite. Please note that no medical examination report is required of Kata-only competitors. All competitors should be aware of the following: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7.

Athletes who compete in international competitions may not be permitted to use safety sports glasses, but may be required to use soft contact lenses pursuant to international rules. Regular eye glasses are not allowed in Kumite. If a competitor is injured during a match and is determined to be medically unable to continue that match, he may not compete in another match during the same tournament without first obtaining medical clearance from the tournament medical director. Disqualification following an injury may result in either the injured competitor or his opponent being declared the winner. The circumstances under which the injury occurred will be considered by the referee and judges in deciding who the winner is. In the interest of safety, all finger and toe nails must be trimmed short. No personal jewelry may be worn during Kumite. All competitors are advised to see their regular physician for follow-up medical examination of injuries suffered during the tournament.
