According to IRNA, Hadi Sai After the annual meeting of the Taekwondo Federation, he said to the reporters: “It was a good and informal meeting.” I would have liked Mohammad Poladgar to be in this forum to honor him, but the vice president of championship development of the Ministry of Sports preferred not to be in the forum. We postponed the ceremony of honoring Mr. Poladgar and he is supposed to be honored in the Fajr Cup. Also in this assembly of Massoud Lashkari The secretary of the federation was honored. He retired from Taekwondo.
The head of the Taekwondo Federation, referring to the support for this discipline, said: the art of Iranian athletes was determined in the Asian Championship. We went with a young team and got good results. In the women’s section, we won the Asian championship for the first time. I hope this trend continues at the world level and at the Olympics.
Regarding the federation’s budget, he also said: an understanding meeting was supposed to be held in the Ministry of Sports, the time of which is not yet known, and the Ministry of Sports has not informed us of the time either. In that meeting, I will talk about the budget and expenses of the Taekwondo Federation.
The president of the federation said about the assembly’s vote of no confidence in the proposed vice president of the federation: I didn’t think the assembly would reject them. These two people have helped us a lot in the past few months, but the assembly decided to introduce other people. We need to introduce those who are strong in both technical and managerial aspects, but people with this quality were not trained. I respect the vote of the assembly and will seek to introduce the best people.
The Olympic gold medalist in taekwondo said: From the first day, the technical committee decided to have 2 teams with different personnel. The duties of each of them are specified and their dispatch is also determined. We will also send a team for the solidarity games of Islamic countries. Taekwondo competitions in this period of games are hard and at a high level.
He continued: “There are strong teams like Egypt, Morocco, Azerbaijan and Turkey in Konya, and it can be said that it is a small world tournament.” We will send a young team and I hope we will get a good result in Turkey. We are looking at the Olympic Games in Paris.
