Success at 2011 Nationals !
What an event it was. One Taekwondo had 19 entries at this years Nationals held in Canberra. We returned with 8 golds, 6 silvers and a bronze. The outstanding results demonstrate our status as one of the leading Taekwondo centres in Australia. As we continue to enjoy success in Queensland and interstate, we are determined to cultivate more talent through our Saturday development program so that we could go international.

Thank you coaching staff. You are the best in the country. Thank you to everyone who travelled to very cold Canberra to support our athletes. Your presence alone was a major lift for our players, and to the rest of you who stayed behind but cheered for our success.

What's happened to date at our club
2011 has been an exciting year in terms of our children's development. With our Little Tigers, we apply "train for fun" philosophy where the young ones are taught Taekwondo skills through fun-filled activities. We are pleased to see them develop strength and technique so that when they become big enough to enter the Mighty Rockets class, they'll have no transition issues. Our primary school children & high school students make up later classes. I love these groups as there are so much talent. We have an array of potential champions in these groups that we're looking forward to shaping. The adult class is a brilliant bunch who just love each other's company. Both old and new students have created a very friendly atmosphere in which everyone is actively involved.

The Saturday development program has been in place for three years now, and the coaching staff's hard work has really delivered results. Our club objective is to ensure that all members of our centre to enjoy their training experiences. Competition isn't for everyone, but that is OK. As long as you're getting some benefit out of the sport, that is great. We love our friendly yet very disciplined club culture. It is what makes us One.

Following our success in competitions, we will be incorporating a newly developed training program that is sure to challenge all participants both physically and mentally. This program is designed to cater for those who aim to someday represent Australia in major international events such as the Olympics. We realise this is an ambitious endeavour but we also believe it is not out of our reach. 2012 will be an exciting year.
