520 participants from 36 taekwondo clubs from the four countries; Kenya, Rwanda Uganda and Democratic Republic of Congo took part in this year’s edition of the Korean Ambassador’s Cup that started on 8th till 9th November.
This was the biggest turn up ever since this Championship was introduced in 2017 by the embassy of Korea and the biggest number of participants was attributed to the good organization that was made by the embassy.
The embassy introduced electronic machines that were used in the championship, reducing the level of poor judgments.
Thanks to the Korean embassy, many countries wanted to use this championship to test their under 21 teams before going for the world under 21 world taekwondo championship that will be hosted in Kenya from 3rd -6th December 2025.
