Dear Grandmasters, Masters and Instructors,

2018 – North East Challenge Cup

It is with great pleasure that you and your students are invited to the 2018 North East Challenge Cup on Saturday 16th June 2018 at the Aberdeen Sports Village, Linksfield Rd, Aberdeen AB24 5RU, 01224 438900.
Tournament will start at 09:00 with opening address and awarding of junior participation medals.

This competition is open to Taekwon-Do students only. There will be four individual and one team event contested, Patterns, Sparring Special Technique, Power Test and Pre-Arranged Free Sparring.

This championship is open to all student’s white belt and above and will be split into six age groups Pre-Junior Tot up to 7yrs & 8 -11yrs, Junior 12 -14 yrs; Teens 15-17; Senior 18-39yrs and Advanced Senior 40yrs and over.

The competition will be run as per ITF rules but with some small amendments to accommodate age and competitor level.

We will endeavour to separate competitors from the same school competing against each other in initial rounds, thus improving the experience of all students. Pre-Juniors (up to 11 years) and Juniors (12-14yrs) will be divided initially by age, then grade and height.

Teens 15-17 and all Seniors will be categorised initially by age, then grade and weight. It may be the case that we have to merge categories due to the number of competitors.
