The dojo with the highest overall points becomes winner of the All Valley Karate Tournament. Originally, the fighter representing the dojo becomes the champion along with the dojo itself, even if the dojos students fought against each other. During 1985, the winner will only compete in the finale and skip the quarterfinals and semifinals. Starting in 2019, the committee has introduced a skills competition, a boys division, and a girls division. In the skills competition, the dojo becomes the winner when their students skills are impressive and given a rating, which also gives the dojo a chance to win the grand trophy. During the finals divisions, if students from the same dojo wins both the boys and girls competitions, the dojo becomes the official champion. However, if different dojos win the boys and girls division, then the dojo with a higher overall score becomes the grand champion. An example for this is that Eli wins the boys division for Miyagi-Do Karate after beating Robby Keene, while Tory Nichols of Cobra Kai Dojo wins the girls division after beating Samantha LaRusso, in which Cobra Kai becomes the dojo grand champion since they had the higher overall score. Regardless if the dojo wins or loses, the champion of either the girls or boys division is still given a trophy.
