The results showed that the karate sports development program in Yogyakarta was carried out in various ways, namely: establishing karate sports organizations at the regional and branch levels, empowering small universities, organizing events at the regional level, and participating in championships at the national level. The program is constrained by several problems, namely: internal problems of trainers, funds/budget, trainer qualifications, quantity and quality of athletes, as well as training infrastructure that is not evenly distributed in each region.
