Welcome!

2024 Prairie Wildfire Taekwondo Challenge

This is the 26th Annual event is set for April 20th.  Most event information will be the same as the last event in 2023.  The official host hotel is the Hotel Inn and Suites located behind the Painted Hand Casino. This is walking distance from the venue.  In addition, there are four brand new hotels in Yorkton.  However, there are many events in Yorkton and the hotels are always difficult to reserve at the last moment.  Please reserve well in advance.

Thank you for your participation at our 26th Annual event.  I wish to extend a special thanks to all the volunteers and referees for a job well done.

The competitors travel from as far away as Edmonton, Alberta as well as participants from North Dakota. We once again will run a double elimination for the pattern and sparring competition. We use Daedo E-Strike for all coloured and black belts in all rings.  Exception for the 10 and under they will have two rings that is corner judge clickers and not the PSS with E-Socks.  Bring your own complete sparring gear in case your division is not Daedo PSS.

The Best of Three round system will be in place.

This a very athlete centered event that give multiple opportunities for the participants to refocus and perform again. Developing referees are mentored in a positive environment. We are very proud of the design model of this event and believe it should be on your Taekwondo training circuit and Long Term and Yearly Training Plans for development.

This year we have again included a Family Team Poomsae event. There will be a black belt competitive division, Both the Family Team and black belts will use the KPNP Poomsae scoring system. The recreational black belt and coloured belts will have a double elimination, head-to-head format.

See You in Yorkton!

Sincerely,
Master Mitchell
