In a meeting where the Taekwondo leaders were gathered, an important issue was discussed:  the scoring points a specific action can score t during an combat.

 

Jin Yang Bang, Director of the Technical Committee, presented three options:

 

A.

1 point for a simple kick or punch to the trunk

3 points for a turning kick to the trunk

3 points for a simple kick to the head

5 points for a turning kick to the head

 

B.

1 point for a simple kick or punch to the trunk

3 points for a turning kick to the trunk

3 points for a simple kick to the head

4 points for a turning kick to the head

 

C.

1 point for a single kick or punch to the trunk

3 points for a turning kick to the trunk

2 point for a simple kick to the head

4 points for a turning kick to the head

 

Afther a thorough discussion they decided Proposal B, which will be presented to the General Assembly who will finally make the decisión about this important issue.

 

After an analysis we can conclude that this modification will represent a counterweight for short athletes  who will have the opportunity to balance the combat using a turning kick, a technique that will result on a more dynamic and exciting combat.
