Co-operation Required for the Centralized Grading

elife

0

The centralized grading on 4 and 5 July 2009 will be held in Yio Chu Kang Sports Hall. The STF requires the co-operation of club leaders and coaches in the following areas.

Transport and Parking   

The STF is aware that it is not the best place to organize its grading. However, it cannot help it as the regular venue is closed for the Asian Youth Games.

Nevertheless, the STF is appealing to all club leaders and coaches to seek the understanding and co-operation of the candidates and their parents, if they are involved, to bear with any inconveniences caused by the use of the venue.

Please encourage them to use public transport as car park spaces are limited. If they drive, they should be advised to arrive at the sports hall early to have a better chance to getting parking lots.

All examiners are required to note that it may not be possible to reserve parking lots for them because of the constraints.

Submission of Documents

Coaches are reminded to ensure that they submit copies of the candidates’ unarmed combat certificate and grading preparation certificate if they have the certification. The certification will help the examiners in their assessment of the relevant candidates.

Assistance to Officials

In the recent National Poomsae Championships, many coaches were seen helping the tournament officials. Their assistance had resulted in the smooth running of the event. The STF is proud of the coaches and looks forward to the same team spirit being displayed at the grading.

Many Champions One Successful Championships

The National Inter-School Taekwondo Championships were smoothly and successfully held over five days at Regent Secondary School. The first two days – 22 and 25 June 2009 – were primarily for secondary school students. The next two days – 26 and 27 June – were for primary schools and the last day – 28 June – was mainly for junior colleges.

The competition comprised ‘kyorugi’ and ‘poomsae’ attracted students from 66 primary schools, 52 secondary schools and 10 junior colleges. It turned out to be a highly competitive event which saw players and performers trying to outdo one another for the various titles at stake.

After the last trophy for the championships was presented by Mr Milan Kwee, STF President, many new champion schools were crowned. The top schools for the various divisions are as follows.

  • A Division (Junior Colleges)

Boys   –   Temasek Junior College

Girls    –   Temasek Junior College 

Team  –   Hwa Cong Junior College

  • B Division (Secondary Schools)

Boys   – Maris Stella High School

Girls    – Cedar’s Girls Secondary School

  • C Division (Secondary Schools)

Boys   – Bowen Secondary School

Girls    – Hai Sing High School

  • Team (Secondary School)

Bowen Secondary School

  • Senior Division (Primary Schools)

Boys   – St Anthony’s Primary School

Girls    – Boon Lay Gardens Primary School

  • Junior Division (Primary Schools)

Boys   –  Temasek Primary School

Girls    – Temasek Primary School

Team  – St Anthony’s Canossian Primary School

The event was not about winners only. For those who did not achieve their goals, the tournament offered them valuable lessons. Amidst the celebration of some Junior Colleges in the school hall, Mr Joe Lim from Serangoon Junior College was seen teaching his students about the importance of adopting winning attitude. He also highlighted the fighting spirit shown by some of the successful performers.

All participants – players and performers and some of their parents who were present to give their morale support, coaches and teachers – had found the event enriching and rewarding. It was unfortunate that some students could not benefit from the event. Their applications to participate in the event were rejected because their grades were awarded by taekwondo clubs not recognized by the STF.

The success of the event would not have been possible without the support, contribution and faith given to the STF to organize the event.

The STF would like to take this opportunity to record its appreciation to the following.

  • Singapore Schools Sports Council and Singapore Primary School Sports Council for their blessings,
  • Co-Curricular Activities Board for their guidance and contribution,
  • Principal of Regent Secondary School for agreeing to partner the STF in making the event a reality,
  • Participating schools for supporting the aspirations of their students to excel in the sport,
  • Organizing Committee for their hard work and sacrifices and
  • All volunteers.

The results for the championships are attached.
