The South Korean Embassy in Ghana presented five boxes of uniforms and protective equipment to the Ghana Taekwondo Federation (GTF) in Accra, according to the Ghanaian Times. South Korean Ambassador Park Kyongsig said the donation was intended to support the development of taekwondo in the country.
The equipment is fitted with sensors designed to improve scoring and make the referees’ work easier, Park Kyongsig said. He praised the organisation of the 2026 Korea Ambassador’s Taekwondo Open Championship, held at the Borteyman Sports Complex in Accra.
GTF president Frederick Lartey Otu said the donation had come at a timely moment as the federation prepares for qualifying events for several major tournaments. He also announced that the taekwondo awareness campaign, after a stop in the Ashanti Region, would soon continue in the Upper West, Eastern and Northern regions.
