Kissimmee, Fl hosted the 2009 Tae Kwon Do championships on April 24,25. Athletes from all over the state competed to get a spot in the top 8 of their division to be eligible to qualify for nationals June 29 - July 4 in Ft. Lauderdale. National ranked athletes and National AAU team members were on hand to not only compete but to also officiate. Elite coaches brought their teams to compete, proving once again Florida has the top competitors in the country, many of the fights were on a world class level.

Referees from Florida, Georgia and Tennessee worked all day to ensure fair competition. The medics from Bare Essentials are the best in the country, they were flawless in their treatment of athletes, (the injured competitor returned later in the day and was fine !). Macho and fine designs had great set ups and provided the event with quality products and service. Thank you all for you participation at this years event. Without the dedicated volunteers and staff this event wouldn't be possible, thank you for making this happen.
