Training with the National Squad

0

Ali Pourtaheri, a blackbelt holder from United Kingdom, trained with the national squad from 25 June to 2 July 2006 at the National Training Centre.  He was an overseas guest of the Singapore Taekwondo Federation.While our players were impressed with his humility and discipline, Ali was touched by the warm hospitality extended to him.  What’s more, he enjoyed the training and picked up some sparring tips from the national coach, Wong Liang Ming. 

Said Wong: “Ali can go far in the sport.  He was certainly keen to learn as much as possible within the short time he was with us.  I like his training attitude and wish him all the best in his endeavour to excel in the sport.”
 
Ali took home with him not only fond memories of his experiences at the National Training but also gifts from the Federation.

Communications

0

To move with the times, the Management has decided to stop the practice of sending circulars by mail on 1 January 2007.  This method is slow and not as effective as we expect it to be.  

From then on, all STF circulars will be emailed to you instead.  We would like to do so, if possible, well before the target date.  Therefore, we would appreciate it if you could let us have your email address if you have not done so as soon as possible.

We will endeavour to update STF website, www.stf.sg, regularly so that you can keep yourself informed of the latest development in the sport and the organization. 

If you have any suggestion for the further improvement of the website, please email it to us at tkdf@pacific.net.sg.  However, if you choose to contribute to the improvement, we will welcome it.  Just let us know.
