2020 WKU PANAMERICAN GAMES

Welcome to the 4th PanAmerican Games!

The World Kickboxing & Karate Union welcomes you to Houston, Texas.

We are very excited to host the Panam Games in the USA again. Houston is a beautiful city with hundreds

of things to do, home of some of the best teams in the world in different sports. Our hosting venue and

partner, the Marriott Westchase Hotel, is located in a great area. Surrounded by great restaurants and

only minutes away from The Galleria, the biggest mall in Houston. The Westchase Marriott is minutes

from both airports, Hobby (HOU) and Intercontinental (IAH).

Every year, more countries and athletes keep joining WKU. To the present day, we have more than 70

countries and over 17,000 athletes affiliated with WKU. The Panamerican Games are the result of WKU’s

steady growth in the continent. To make it fair and super fun, the Games take place in a different country

every year. This year the USA is the hosting country while Mexico will be the destination in 2021.

The Panam Games have all the WKU tatami official divisions that run at the World Championships. As an

incentive to attend and grow the Games, WKU has granted that every single winner of the WKU official

divisions will earn their spot for the World Championships in Canada!

The Panam Games will also have divisions for color belts; however the WKU official divisions are open to

all ranks. Competitors must fit in the proper division by age, gender and weight where weight is required.

This is an event open to all styles, schools and competitors. Color belts can compete in their regular

divisions and in the black belt division they can qualify for.

The Panams are part of the NBL Cowboy conference and the Sport Karate International League. All

competitors finishing in the top 8 spots in their divisions will earn points and seeding to attend the Super

Grands World Games in 2020!

Athletes from Canada, Colombia, Costa Rica, El Salvador, England, Germany, Guatemala, Honduras,

Mexico, United States of America, & Venezuela have confirmed attendance to the games; make sure you

attend the PANAM Games on February 21-22, 2020… We want you to be Part of History!

We want to personally thank all the loyal volunteers and industry professionals who put so much effort

into the Panam Games Weekend. They are dedicated to making your experience in Houston a positive

and unforgettable one! Thank you all for your support!

Once again, welcome to Texas y’all!
