Important announcement for this year's USATKD SC State Championships (Qualifier). We WILL be using the new Daedo Gen 3 PSS system. The new Gen 3 system now has 15 magnets! Gloves are also used to help score punches.....HOWEVER, we will NOT be using gloves in SC....you WILL need to have your own Gen 3 socks, but will not need the gloves.

It's been a long time coming! But the SC State Championship is official for April 18th at Camden City Arena in Camden, SC!!

There will be 2 parts to this tournament!! The USATKD qualifier event for Nationals in Charlotte, NC!! (It's so close to us!!). USATKD membership will be required amongst other things that have to be completed in order to compete.

The 2nd tournament will be the Open tournament. This will be open to any students!

For the USATKD qualifier, we will have sport poomsae, traditional forms, breaking, and sparring events. All students will be using Daedo Gen 3 for the tournament, so socks will be required. This will be the same for Nationals, should you go. Traditional forms is a new event that they're doing. And lastly, sport poomsae and breaking will follow all rules and guidelines outlined by USATKD.

Registration for the USATKD event can be completed here: https://usataekwondo.sport80.com/public/wizard/e/537/home

The Open tournament will be a friendly tournament where medals will be guaranteed for all divisions. This registration can be completed here: https://tourneyreg.net/

You should go to the Southeastern Taekwondo National Qualifier if…

1. You STILL haven’t qualified for the 2025 AAU Taekwondo Nationals, OR….

2. You already qualified for Nationals, but need some ‘tune up’ before you go, OR…

3. You aren’t going to be able to go to Nationals this year, but you want to go to an exciting, well run event and get in some awesome ring time!!!!
