Carmen Taekwondo Academy

Xyza Consolacion put one hell of the fight against Region 10 in quarterfinals. Close last round came to last 10 seconds 1 point difference against a girl whos part of National Team Pool. Strong achievement and testament to how much she improved in only 3 years doing TKD at CTA.

Well done, we train more and come back even stronger next year.

Xyza Consolacion wins her first fight against R1 and moves on to Quarterfinals. She will continue her fight tomorrow.

Genela Comida did her best and gave her all against R9 but unfortunately lost her fight.

Good Luck CTA athletes during games. Give it your all!

Genela and Xyza will be representing Region 7 in Kyorugi Taekwondo division.

Franz, unfortunately, got DQ'd due to growing too fast. Unfortunately, due to nature of these games where nationals and qualifiers are nearly 1 year apart, it is quite common in Elementary division... nonetheless, we are very proud of you Franz for coming this far.
