2021 Kun Bokator National Championships to Take Place Next Week

Bokator Federation of Cambodia (BFC) is organising the 2021 Kun Bokator National Championships next weekend.

To happen in Phnom Penh on Feb. 11-13, the competition will consist of performance and combat events for both men and women, according to H.E. Vath Chamroeun, BFC’s Secretary General.

This is a new campaign aiming to select the best athletes for the SEA Games 2023 to be hosted by Cambodia and with a view to preserve and develop this Khmer traditional martial art.

Cambodia’s ambition is not only to advance the sport within the ASEAN region or for the SEA Games 2023, but also in the Asian continent in the future, like Karate and Taekwondo

The Kingdom is planning to establish clubs of Kun Bokator in approximately 20,000 pagodas across the country.
