About Kick 4 College
What Are You Fighting For?
Located in Austin, Texas, Kick 4 College, Inc. is a Sports Martial Arts league dedicated to awarding prizes for athletic excellence. Our mission is to significantly elevate the standard of martial arts competition while attracting new students through tournaments that offer major cash rewards. Kick 4 College not only acknowledges various organized martial arts disciplines but also brings many of them together under one roof.
A Message from Founder Sean Eubanks
Welcome to Kick 4 College. Growing up in the martial arts, I experienced first hand that our sports champions are forced to pursue other sports to gain much needed scholarship funding. For a decade, my parents spent their weekends hauling me all over the state so I could compete in more than 30 different tournaments each year. To compete on the national circuit, we had to travel across the country. Our team could not get a sponsor. This surprised me because we were talented Texas fighters with something to prove, and we did, every weekend.
Despite being ranked by the North American Sport Karate Association as the #2 point fighter in America, winning over 400 trophies, and being recognized by the Amateur Organization of Karate, as well as Governor Ann Richards for being the top fighter in Texas, my only scholarship opportunity came from playing football. Many parents are not financially able to send their kids across the country to compete, much less to a university. It is for this reason that I am thrilled to have founded Kick 4 College, Inc.
Until I founded K4C in 2006, our sports champions hadn’t had the opportunity to earn a college scholarship. Kick 4 College, Inc was the first martial arts league to award college scholarships to competitors for their achievements. The company is a non-profit corporation with a 501 (c) 3 pending with the IRS and is based in Austin, Texas. It is our focus to join with corporate America and give children involved in martial arts what so many other sports offer, financial opportunities from the sport they have worked so hard to master.
Kick 4 College tournaments will be broadcasted over television and/or the Internet. Advertising with us is one of the best ways for a sponsor, or group of sponsors, to reach millions of families and their children. Kick 4 College will host respected and recognized tournaments that will offer unparalleled opportunities for children in martial arts.e
It is our goal to give every youth martial arts competitor in America the opportunity to earn a cash prize while competing near the city in which they live. We will host six tournaments per year, in the Austin area, starting in December of 2025. In the future, we plan to host up to 10 tournaments per year in major cities across America with regional and national finals competitions also.
I look forward to rewarding you with a cash prize for your outstanding achievements in the martial arts.
Sincerely,
Sean Eubanks
President of Kick 4 College, Inc.
The K4C Philosophy
“Your Education is your most important journey;
without it you will not have the vision to carry out the opportunities that await you in the future.”
-Grand Master Allen Steen
Current Objective
In 2026, Kick 4 College has the same goal as in the past: To give every youth martial arts competitor in America the opportunity to further their education while competing near the city they live in. Today, however, instead of granting scholarships which can only be used for college, K4C is going to give athletes the opportunity to win cash prizes in alignment with new NIL rules. With this approach, K4C aims to create a platform that not only celebrates athletic excellence but also empowers young athletes to invest in their education or personal growth in accordance with their dreams and aspirations.
Moreover, this organization seeks to foster a community where sportsmanship, discipline, and dedication are at the forefront. We believe that by supporting our athletes through these tournaments, we are not only contributing to their personal success but also nurturing the development of well-rounded individuals who can make a positive impact in their communities.
As we look to the future, Kick 4 College is committed to being a catalyst for change in the world of martial arts. Together, we are building a legacy of excellence and opportunity that will inspire generations to come.
Sport Karate
Sport Karate is a variant of Karate which emphasizes exercise and competition over traditional martial arts principles. It focuses on the physical aspects of Karate, such as technique, speed, and power, rather than the philosophical and spiritual elements.
