Have you seen the new Paris 2024 Paralympic Games video from the International Paralympic Committee?

The International Paralympic Committee has launched a promotional film that addresses the romantic stereotypes of what some people think the Paralympics represent versus the brutal reality of high-performance sport.

Check out the video below and watch for the animated love-in and song to be abruptly interrupted with the harsh realism of Paralympic sport as British Paralympic Taekwondo athlete Amy Truesdale is kicked in the chest and crashes to the mat!

The Olympic and Paralympic Games present an excellent opportunity for members to tap into the excitement of the summer of sport, and promote their clubs and attract new members to give Taekwondo a try.

Paris 2024 will offer significant exposure for ‘Taekwondo’, and people and clubs involved in the different aspects of Taekwondo could be tapping into this.

We’ve created a checklist guide to help your club get ready for the games where the eyes of the world will be on the Taekwondo and Para Taekwondo events in Paris.

We’ve also got a page dedicated to the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games and we’ll be updating it with more resources as the countdown to the Games continues, and during the events in Paris.
