London, Ontario and Oakridge Taekwon-Do played host to the 2015CanAm Championships which brought competitors and spectators from across Canada and the USA for an exciting day of high caliber Taekwon-Do.The cheers from the crowd were most notable whenever there was a final match between the USA and Canada, each country encouraging their country’s competitor.
The tournament started with an opening ceremony that began with both National anthems, a moment of silence to honour the Founder of Taekwon-Do, the playing of the “Ode to General Choi” and culminated with an inspirational message from FGMR. The tournament was highlighted by a fiercely competitive Black Belt division many of whom had international experience competing in the previous years ITF World Championships.
All said and done, it was a great event!
