Best Black Belt Competitor Trophies

The GTI Best Black Belt Competitor Awards

How the points are awarded: 

Black Belts who compete in Sparring or Patterns are awarded points* as follows:

Gold – 3 Silver – 2 Bronze – 1

After the final event of the season those shown at the top of each division win the GTI Best Black Belt Competitor Award.
 
The following will apply:

• A minimum of 12 points is required to be eligible to win the award (introduced 2018).

• Two awards will be given if two competitors tie.

• No award is given if three or more competitors tie for first place.

• The Veterans’ sparring divisions have their own separate table and awards. (NB. When sufficient entrants allow).

• *Points will not be awarded in the event of a competitor gaining a medal by default and therefore not had a competitive match in their division.

When two or more competitors have the same amount of points they are listed in alphabetical order by surname.

Congratulations to the following who won the GTI's Best Black Belt Competitor Awards for the 2023-24 season.

These will be presented to the winners at our next tournament, the GTI English Open on 9th February in Hinckley when the rankings table starts afresh for the 2025-2026 season.
