Etter et opphold var det et gledelig gjensyn med fullkontaktstevne i Lørenskog hallen, Lørenskog. Stevnet var av Norges Cup format, som vil si junior, senior, fullkontakt og fullkontakt med begrensninger. Stevnet trakk til seg ca påmeldinger i Kata og kamp, som må sies å være bra. Ekstra stas var for mange at man fikk Svenskt besøk, som krydrer det lille miljøet i Norge.
I den rene fullkontakten var det lettveken hadde flest utøvere – herre såvel som dameklassen.
