Taekwondo Barbados (TAB) now boasts the country’s first two certified International Referees (IRs), Ogeji Dottin (4th Dan) and Ken Harewood (2nd Dan).

The two IRs successfully completed the Pan Am Taekwondo Union’s (PATU) Referee Certification and Refresher Course.

The technical events were conducted in two separate competition disciplines; Kyoroogi (combat), and Poomsae (patterns). The courses were held in Las Vegas, Nevada, two weeks ago.

Barbados went on to make a major impact at the 2017 World Taekwondo (WT) President’s Cup, as Harewood was selected to judge during the international event. (BARBADOS NATION)
