22 young Black Belts have been named to the AAU Taekwondo National Cadet Team. This new program, begun by AAU Taekwondo to recognize future talent in Olympic Style Sparring, was launched at the 2009 AAU Taekwondo Nationals in Ft. Lauderdale. Gold Medal winners in the 10 -11 and 12 - 13, male and female divisions, are being rewarded with special recognition and the opportunity to participate in additional training to help insure their continued growth in Taekwondo. Letters of congratulations and invitations to training camps are on the way. Congratulations! We all look forward to watching your future successes in Taekwondo.
