OCA and WTF join for Asian Youth Development Project
WTF partners with Continental Association to expand youth engagement in Asia
In partnership with the World Taekwondo Federation (WTF), the Olympic Council of Asia will host the Taekwondo Youth Camp in Bangkok, Thailand, for the Asian Youth Development Project in 2013. The partnership has been founded on the WTF and OCA’s shared goal of promoting sport, healthy lifestyles and Olympism to young people. The OCA’s focus on making the Olympic Movement more accessible in Asia has allowed the WTF to participate in encouraging taekwondo and the philosophies which surround it to the youth in this region. The World Taekwondo Federation’s President Choue said: “These Camps are important occasions for international youth sport. Every year, they offer young people the opportunity to come together with others from all over the continent – to share experiences and build international relationships, as well as to promote fair play and sportsmanship, and to nurture great sporting skill – all things fundamental to the practice of Taekwondo.” Source: WTM
