World Taekwondo Federation (WTF) Logo [wtf.org]

The international governing body for the sport of Taekwondo, the organization formerly known as the World Taekwondo Federation (WTF) is now officially referred to as World Taekwondo (WT). Founded in 1973 in Seoul, South Korea, this federation has been instrumental in the global promotion and standardization of the martial art, guiding its evolution into a recognized international sport.

World Taekwondo has achieved global prominence primarily through its successful efforts to establish Taekwondo as an official medal sport in the Summer Olympic Games, debuting at the 2000 Sydney Games. Today, WT boasts a massive global footprint, coordinating the efforts of over 210 National Member Associations across five Continental Unions.
