Club officials are reminded that the following is strictly not allowed.

–  Employ coaches from other clubs to coach their members during the competition.

–  Field their members under other clubs.

Participants will be disqualified if coaches from their clubs are not available to accompany them to the arena. It will not be acceptable to use the excuse that the participant’s coach is at another court as the competition cannot be delayed.

New Procedure for the National School Championships

0

In the past, participants in the National Inter-School Taekwondo Championships are required to obtain the grading cards from their respective clubs for their schools to scan when they register for the competition. This has resulted in a lot of inconvenience for the schools and the participants.

After a review of the procedure, clubs will now collect all the entry forms from their members and verify their grades. This process will make it easier for the schools and at the same time provide safe guard against missing grading cards.

Sending parents with the grading cards and entry forms to STF office is easy but it certainly does not reflect well on the quality of service. Going the extra mile for your members is the taekwondo way.

We encourage all clubs to support their members in their participation. As the saying goes: ‘If you do not take care of your members, other people will.’
