31st annual Goodwill Tournament

Comeptitors from around the Lowcountry converged on the Beaufort High School gymnasium on Saturday, Feb. 22, 2025, for the 31st annual Goodwill Tournament hosted by Chuck Elias’ Club Karate. Elias touts the tournament as more than just a competition, but a celebration of martial arts and community. He says it has become a platform for martial artists of all ages and skill levels to showcase their talents, learn from each other, and foster a sense of camaraderie. “Nothing but happiness, a good experience,” Elias said when asked what he hoped a first-time participant would take home from the event. “It’s an opportunity to find out their strengths, their weaknesses and what they need to work on.”
