United ITF Australian Championships 2018

The 2018 United ITF Australia National Championships was held at St Kevin’s Catholic School, on Queensland’s Gold Coast on Saturday 25th August, 2018.

United ITF Taekwon-Do Australia are pleased to announce we had an outstanding response with almost 170 competitors from around Australia and New Zealand in attendance.

We had competitors from 5 years of age through to mid 50’s. The event included many first timers through to multiple World Champions.

For the first time in Australian ITF Nationals history we also included a Special Needs category, fresh from our success at the ITF World Championships.

Those figures made it the biggest United ITF national championships for several years. It was the most significant event on our domestic calendar in 2018

Events were conducted according to ITF rules with some modifications for Junior ranks. Special techniques and breaking events were slightly modified, to allow for wider participation.

Judging and officiating was carried out by trained and experienced officials, several of whom have umpired at the highest international level.
