MANCHESTER, UK (Dec 03, 2023) – Taekwondo’s finest athletes, coaches and officials were today recognised at the World Taekwondo 2023 Gala Awards, marking a fitting conclusion to an extraordinary season. The Gala Awards serve as a celebration of excellence, recognising outstanding athletes, coaches and officials who have left their mark on the global Taekwondo stage throughout the year. World Taekwondo President Chungwon Choue opened the Gala Awards with a rousing speech that celebrated the global success of Taekwondo in its jubilee year. The World Taekwondo President also highlighted the unveiling of a Taekwondo statue at the Olympic Museum in Lausanne, as well as the Taekwondo Humanitarian Foundation (THF) being awarded the Olympic Cup by International Olympic Committee President Thomas Bach as two notable achievements in 2023. The President then welcomed the Lord Mayor of Manchester, Yasmine Dar, who noted the city’s honour to again host the Taekwondo family. The British Taekwondo President Sarah Stevenson also welcomed the Gala attendees before proceedings got underway. The awards commenced with the World Taekwondo President announcing Great Britain as the recipient of the MMA of the Year Award. The Para Taekwondo MMA of the Year was awarded to Mexico for its efforts to promote Para Taekwondo in the country and beyond. The 2023 Gala also saw the introduction of the Sustainability Awards for the first time across three key focus areas.

He has played a key role in the development of a strong Taekwondo programme in the country with the Olympic Games Paris 2024 on the horizon. Agnieszka Scheffler of Poland was recognised as the Best Female Referee, while Ayman Al-Adarbeh of Jordan was named the Best Male Referee of 2023. Adding to the accolades, the stars of Para Taekwondo were also recognised during the Gala Awards.

Meanwhile, Para Taekwondo World Champion Antonino Bossolo of Italy was crowned the Best Para Male Athlete following a successful year that also included gold at the Paris 2023 Para Taekwondo Grand Prix.

Sheikh Mohammed bin Hamad bin Mohammed Al Sharqi, Crown Prince of the Fujairah was named the winner of the first ever Taekwondo Humanitarian Trophy and will be officially awarded the trophy in February 2024.
