LIST OF AWARDS
The Most Improved
Student Award
Is given to students, who
although have not been training very long, have shown great ability and attitude
that we consider them to be great prospects for the future.
The
Most Promising New Student Award
Is given to students who
have stepped up a level in their training throughout the year and as
such we have seen a remarkable change in their ability and character.
The Blackbelt
Attitude Award
Is given for
junior students under 13 years of age. Before each graduation the last merit
badge or stripe to be awarded to the student, is that of blackbelt
attitude. Firstly the student must show the correct manner and courtesy in
class to his instructor and fellow class mates. Also the student must have
the correct enthusiasm for learning and show the discipline in training. These
attributes do not stop being assessed in class, they must extend them to home
life and family members and also with schoolwork, colleagues and teachers.
Without this successful assessment the student does not graduate
The Competitor
of the Year Award
Is given
to the most consistent competitor over the year. Several factors go
into this award. It is not just the amount of gold medals won that matter, but
also the level of competition and the size of the divisions that the competitor
was involved in.
The Perseverance
Award
Is given to students who have shown great determination and will to
succeed throughout the year. No real student of martial arts can go anywhere
without this quality. If there is any attribute that a student can take
into life it is that of never giving up, no matter how hard or challenging the
task in front.
"One
of the most important secrets in becoming
a leader of Tae Kwon-Do is to overcome
every difficulty with Perseverance".
