The Vanuatu Taekwondo National Federation successfully held a sparring and training camp on June 25th and 26th, led by national athletes Clement and Caleb Onggosanusi. It was encouraging to see the participation of many young athletes who demonstrated positive attitudes and a strong eagerness to learn.

In addition to the training, we conducted two donation events under the Vanuatu Taekwondo Care program. These included the distribution of school supplies to a local school in Pango, as well as Taekwondo uniforms and gear donated by the Onggosanusi brothers and friends

We would like to extend our sincere thanks to Monsieur Clement from Ecole Publique de Pango for hosting the donation event and for providing the space for our training sessions.

We look forward to increased participation in future events as the VTNF continues to strengthen our community.
