Last year was our first Championship and I have no doubt that this year's event is even more spectacular.
Beach taekwondo is a celebration of our sport and reflects our values of participation and accessibility. Athletes do not just compete with taekwondo but experience the sport outdoors in the natural environment. This sport also connects taekwondo with young athletes and young audiences. We are dedicated to the continuous development and innovation of our sport to make it fun and exciting for our athletes and fans and beach taekwondo succeeds just that. " The event is organized under the auspices of the Taekwondo World Federation and the Organizing Committee consists of the Taekwondo European Federation, the administration of the South Aegean Region, the Municipality of Rhodes, Sports Traveler 76, and Chairman of the Organizing Committee is the President of the European Taekwondo Federation, Sakis Pragos. Like last year, the Golden Sponsor of the Championship will be Daedo International, which continues to support taekwondo innovation.
