The real work Begins now!
Dear

I would like to sincerely thank everyone who supported, registered, and completed payment before the deadline for the 2026 Online Inclusive Taekwon-Do World Championships.

It is extremely pleasing to see such strong support from all around the world. Seeing so many people working hard and coming together through Inclusive Taekwon-Do makes me very proud.

This year, we have a total of 170 registered competitors for the online event. This clearly shows the growing interest and the outstanding support from our NGOs and international members.

Our media and management team has now begun reviewing entries and developing the final format, categories, and event structure. It is a large task, but I am very confident that this year’s organisation, presentation, and management process will not disappoint. We continue to work hard to improve our structures and strengthen what we can offer all members internationally.

Thank you also to everyone who has already submitted their YouTube video links. These links will officially be used as part of this year’s event process.

More details regarding the competition process, categories, and visual presentation will soon be revealed through our website and official platforms. It is shaping up to be a truly remarkable event.

Thank you again for your continued support.

Warm Regards,

Ben Evans
President
International Inclusive Taekwon-Do Association (IITA)
