INVITATION On behalf of Taekwondo Queensland I extend a sincere welcome to this event. We had hoped to deliver an event in conjunction with Sports Taekwondo Queensland at this time but that is not possible, despite our best efforts. Irrespective of that, Taekwondo Queensland has always been an inclusive organization and this event is open to everyone who wishes to take part, regardless of club. If you want to do Taekwondo…come and compete! This is intended to be a friendly event to kick the year off and everyone should feel comfortable to participate. It combines our past events of the Qld Kick Off and Hanmadang into one afternoon-evening event. We hope you enjoy the opportunity to see everyone and do taekwondo together and hope you have a great experience at the event.

Chris Blight, Taekwondo Qld

President
