LAFAYETTE, La. (KLFY)– The Cajundome Convention Center will host the 2024 USA Karate National Championships and Team Trials.

The event will take place July 11-14. Various disciplines from various age groups will be showcased.

“It can teach his kids really good discipline and respect for their opponents that you don’t get a lot of support. So it is a very good sport for use and hopefully, this event will attract a lot of locals to come out and hopefully, we’ll see a growth in that sport here in Louisiana because it is a great sport for kids to take up, teaches great discipline, respect and we can all use a little bit,” Lieutenant Governor Billy Nungesser said.

In a display, the lieutenant governor received an honorary black belt from Karate USA officials.
