Dr. Choue's Message on Youth Olympic Games
It is my tremendous pleasure to write this letter to you after resounding success of the Nanjing 2014 Youth Olympic Games Taekwondo Competitions.
Following huge success of the London 2012 Olympic Games and 2013 WTF World Taekwondo Championships, the WTF again left a huge impression in Nanjing, China.
The venue was full every day and competitions were exciting and fair. We enjoyed welcoming visitors from the IOC and the NOCs such as the IOC President Dr Bach and the Honorary IOC President Dr. Rogge, and many other IOC members.
Taekwondo's universality was clearly demonstrated again by the medal distribution with 22 NOCs sharing 40 medals. And now, we are even more optimistic than ever that the Rio 2016 Olympic Games will prove to be an even more outstanding platform for celebrating the sport of taekwondo.
This success would have not been possible without your support and cooperation. We made it happen with the spirit of harmony and solidarity. We should be proud of what we have achieved! Source: WTF
