Anti-DopingPolicy

Doping is contrary to the spirit of ITF Taekwon-Do and sport in general.

The Irish Taekwon-Do Association (ITA) Anti-Doping Policy seeks to preserve the spirit of ITF Taekwon-Do.

The spirit of sport is the celebration of the human spirit, body and mind, and is characterised, amongst other values, by ethics, fair play, honesty, health and respect for, and compliance with, the spirit and letter of rules and laws.

As the government recognised body responsible for the governance of ITF Taekwon-Do in Ireland, ITA has implemented its Anti-Doping Policy. ITA is supported by the Irish Martial Arts Commission (IMAC) and Sport Ireland in the implementation and administration of its Anti-Doping policy.
