Taekwondo


The Olympic event I am doing is Taekwondo. Taekwondo is a traditional Korean martial art.  

This is how you play Taekwondo. The only way to attack is to kick them and your arms are for blocking. The way to win Taekwondo is by knocking out your opponent.

Taekwondo was invented 50 BC by the Silla Dynasty warriors  in Korea.
Taekwondo stared in the Olympics in 1988.

The equipment you need is a belt, trunk protector, dobok, forearm and shin guards, head protector, also a groin guard.

Taekwondo is played in a court. The court is 8x8 big.
