Very relevant and timely information gents. The controlling factors are not just for competitors but also the podcast here giving coaches insights into what can they control. My two takeaways: Most TKD clubs (to survive ) need the recreational students who are the majority, so getting the specific type of fighters mentioned, training,shaping and measuring each other, together on a consistent basis is a challenge. The old tried and trusted system of “one side fall off, while the other side gets on the mats” is crucial for us coming up to comps, as most clubs ( classes) have different, ages, weights, grades , abilities turn up on any given training evening. The challenge is push that specific group into serious hard core competition,while retaining and carefully challenging the majority of other students. My second takeaway was highlighting the spacious community hall and the smaller unit sized Do-Jang. Thanks for sharing this and the effort you put into this channel. Taekwon !
