Due to current restrictions on Visas to enter the United States, athletes from other countries are urged to participate in tournaments outside the US, such as in Costa Rica (February), Italy (April), or the Bahamas (December).

If you do want to compete in a US tournament, please submit the following information 60 days prior to the event:

1. Name, date of birth, passport number, email address.
2. Name, address, and contact person for your sports club, athletic association, or martial arts school.
3. We will prepare only one invitation letter per person.
4. We are not allowed to contact the US Embassy on your behalf.

If you are coming from a country in Central America or South America, you must first compete in the Latin American championship in Costa Rica in order to qualify for participation in a US tournament.
