Inazuma Tournament 2026

The Inazuma Tournament 2026 is coming up. This time, we have already taken care of all the formalities before registration opens. So if you are in the mood for a beginners' tournament and you want to get a taste of some friendly competition, just keep reading and sign up right away!

The registration page will remain online until September 20, 2026 (at 23:59:59h). After that, we will no longer accept any further registrations. So, again, it's best if you register right away!

As always, our seminar before the actual tournament is primarily aimed at anyone who wants to learn about how tournaments work. This could be at the helpers' table, on the shiai-jo as competitor, or as a referee. In any case, our event can serve as additional practice only. We cannot provide any high-ranking instructors or incredibly experienced professionals in the respective fields. Despite this, we try to help each other improve (and have a little fun in the process).

Disclaimer: English only? Yes. And there are two reasons for that. Over the past few years, interest in our small tournament has grown significantly. We would like to accommodate this by making it as easy as possible for everyone to participate (at least in Europe, but also beyond).
However, since I can’t translate all these fine languages equally well, our enrolment form will be available in English only (as sort of a working language). If you need a translation into another language, please contact me. Maybe we can work something out.
The second reason is a technical change. We are gradually moving away from Google and toward a solution that offers greater data sovereignty and is more GDPR-compliant at the same time.
To keep things reasonably straightforward, I will keep the registration form in a single language.
