A competition exclusively for athletes with disabilities, whether physical, motor, sensory, or intellectual, will be held. The evaluation of each competitor’s level of disability will be carried out by the Inclusion Committee. All participants must undergo an evaluation committee review, presenting their medical fitness certificate for the competition, clearly indicating their disability status and degree. Additionally, the Unique Disability Certificate (UDC) will be required. The final admission and classification of each competitor will be determined by Sbn Anabel Vicario, and this decision will be final and irrevocable.
The UDC must be sent via email to [email protected] , indicating the corresponding registration number.

This edition will feature Individual Patterns, covering categories from 4^th Gup to 4^th Dan.

The age divisions will be:

• Pre-Junior (born in 2010 – 2012)
• Junior (born in 2007 – 2009)
• Adult (born in 1989 – 2006)
• Senior (born in 1988 or before)

After the registration, the categories are split into different belt categories and the different degrees of disability. In the case of less than 4 competitors in a category, the categories can be merged.

The competition will be overseen by a special team of certified Adaptive Taekwon-Do referees, led by GM Abelardo Benzaquén, Chairman of the Umpire Committee and Sbn Anabel Vicario Chairman of the Inclusion Committee.

We are confident that this event, which allows athletes with disabilities to showcase their talent and spirit on an international stage, will become a standard in our community

We welcome you and look forward to your participation in this special event for the ITF and our athletes with disabilities.
