Dear WAKO India,
It brings me great pleasure to witness the announcement of the upcoming 4th WAKO India Open International Kickboxing Tournament, scheduled to take place in New Delhi from the 1st to 5th February, 2025. It is truly remarkable to witness the vast amount of work and activity taking place in Asia presently. Over the past few years India has emerged as a prominent hub of such activity under the adept leadership of its president, Mr. Santosh Kumar Agrawal. I have joined 3rd India Open 2024. It was truly a remarkable experience. It was clear that a lot of hard work went into planning and executing such a large-scale event, and it definitely paid off. The camaraderie and sportsmanship on display were inspiring.
Mr. Santosh Kumar Agrawal please continue with all the hard work you are doing. I eagerly anticipate seeing you very soon. It’s important to remember that there is only #onewakoonechampion
Roy Baker
President WAKO IF
I congratulate WAKO India Kickboxing Federation who have impressed everyone with its functioning in time. The progress they have shown as a National Sports Federation expresses a sense of responsibility on their shoulders towards the game. I am glad that the current Government has recognized Kickboxing as one of the National Sports Federation after a good show of activities in past several years. Being a patron to the organization, it gives happiness to be a part of it.
Looking at the immense growth, I am extremely honored to be associated with WAKO India Family. The dream which was started from the scratch years back has given us not only a national recognition but it carved a niche at an International Forum today. Our management focuses on their members welfare, the growth of athlete and officials to advance them as India is a youthful country and the interest lies on the nation’s growth and its development, we are a proud Sports Federation who has taken Kickboxing to a different level altogether through inculcating combat education and skills to the learners.
I as a President of WAKO India Kickboxing Federation feel proud when I see the spread of Kickboxing in every part of India from its evolution.
Trust me, it was not an easy process to build the strong roots and the bonding. The way each member of the group has contributed towards the mission and the vision of the organization says it all. I am glad with the growing popularity of the sport, affiliates have joined in from across the country to strengthen the federation and to support and upgrade the Kickboxing standard and earn the status of National Sports Federation.
WAKO India is in its developing phase; every day is a learning process for us – we learn we organize and we execute our plan in our own creatives. Past years were very productive for us where our many players performed very well at international level.
I am grateful to our mentors, patron, seniors and colleagues who have guided us to reach at the place where we are today. My special thanks is for WAKO (IF) who has shown faith in me to discover myself with the best of my abilities but personally, I feel it’s just a beginning of an era and have lot more to serve to our nation in contributing to make an identity at the world level.
I want to share some significant updates regarding the progress and growing popularity of our sport. Over the past years, we have experienced impressive developments, including our achievement on international platform.
The enthusiasm and support from fans, athletes, and partners have been truly inspiring. This growing momentum underscores the passion and commitment surrounding our sport and highlights the exciting future we are building.
As we continue to innovate and expand, we are eagerly looking forward to achieving even more milestones. We are dedicated to pushing the boundaries and elevating the profile of our sport, and we believe that the coming years will bring even greater opportunities for success and recognition.
