  • Outline of WTF Oceania Qualification Tournament for London 2012 Olympic Games
    June 21, 2011 Presidents and Secretaries General WTF Member National Associations in Oceania Re: Outline of WTF Oceania Qualification Tournament for London 2012 Olympic Games Dear Colleagues, It is a great pleasure to extend an invitation to your national association to participate in the WTF Oceania Taekwondo Qualification Tournament for London 2012 Olympic Games which will take place on September 11, 2011 in Noumea, New Caledonia, and hereby send you the outline of this tournament which contains important information for your preparations. Relevant logistic information will be provided by the organizing committee in due time. As you would recall, the past three editions of the Olympic Games have served turning points to sport of taekwondo for further improvements in various areas. We truly made significant progress since the last Olympic Games, and I have no doubt that we will have the most exciting and fairest qualification tournament on the pathway to London. Total eight (8) places will be awarded to NOCs through this tournament, which means that the 1st placed contestant will qualify their NOCs places for 2012 Olympic Games provided that at least four (4) contestants participate in pertinent weight division. The World Taekwondo Federation and the Organizing Committee will do its utmost effort for successful organization of the tournament. I anticipate active participation of WTF member national associations in this tournament and look forward to seeing you all in New Caledonia. Sincerely yours, Chungwon Choue President Cc: Mr. Philip Coles, IOC Member and President of Oceania Taekwondo Union Encl.
