    For those that dont know Onakai is one of the two karate affiliation groups recognised by the Sports Council of Ireland. Its also the official affiliation group that will be involved with the Irish Olympic Team.

    Other than that i dont know what issue the op is talking about.

    Not following you op…

    From the ONAKAI website, http://www.karate-ireland.ie/
    ‘In 2002 Karate Ireland was granted full recognition by the Irish Sports Council as the National Governing Body (NGB) for Karate in Ireland.’

    From Olympic Council of Ireland, http://www.olympics.ie/sports/17087-olympic-council-of-ireland-welcomes-new-members-at-agm.html

    ‘24 June 2018; The Olympic Council of Ireland held its Annual General Meeting today at the National Sports Campus in Dublin. The meeting saw the induction of three new National Governing Bodies for membership: Softball Ireland, Onakai and Mountaineering Ireland.’

    Things clearly aren't right when the Athlete's Commission has to make a public statement:
