When do you try out for the Olympic Tae Kwon Do team?
To find out WHEN the Olympic Taekwondo team trials are scheduled in your country, you must contact the National Taekwondo Governing Body, recognized by the National Olympic Committee in YOUR country. Dates to try out are announced via their websites. It is best to find their phone number on their website, and call them to speak directly to a person who knows the dates. This is usually something your coach should know how to do. To find out who the National Governing Body for Taekwondo is in your country, please read the following: For all Olympic events, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) selects an international governing body to regulate the sport. For the sport of taekwondo, that would be the World Taekwondo Federation (WTF), which is located in Seoul, South Korea. The WTF consists of member National Associations in each country that form the continental unions (see website in related links below). Also, in each country, the IOC has established national Olympic Committees that run the Olympic games in their respective country. Your country's National Olympic Committee will recognize only one National Governing Body (NGB or GNB) for each event, such as taekwondo. You can find out what the NGB for your country is by searching the WTF's website, or check the IOC's website to locate the Olympic Committee's website for your country, and then look up the sport of Taekwondo to find the name of the Taekwondo organization that is the NGB in your country. In general, you should find a coach in your area who has experience with Olympic competition. You will be required to become a registered athlete member of the NGB, and you will likely have to compete in local, state and national events to establish a record and qualify for the National Team.
