Year of the dragon<br />

Message from the Organiser<br />

Master Michael Tan - Tan’s <strong>Taekwondo</strong><br />

It is with great pleasure that I produce this publication as a<br />

celebration of another successful Gold Coast Open. This being the<br />

Year of the dragon, was one of our best competitions. Numbers<br />

exceeded expectations, with a total of 460 competitors attending<br />

the 3 rd GC Open. Players came from all States of Australia. We also<br />

had 2 international teams from NZ and PNG.<br />

There were many international, national and state champions<br />

attending this year. Theresa Tona who will be representing PNG in<br />

London used the event as Olympic preparation. Chynea Lang and<br />

Aaron Wain picked up the memorial awards for best sparring<br />

competitors while Justin Patterson won the memorial trophy for<br />

the most outstanding Poomse competitor.<br />

I would like to take this opportunity to personally thank Jo and<br />

Steve Newmann who marshaled all competitors in such an efficient<br />

way to enable us to finish on time. And who can forget Paul<br />

Pomerenke for being the MC and providing such an entertaining<br />

call on proceedings.<br />

I hope you enjoy this publication and I look forward to seeing you<br />

again next May for the 4 th Gold Coast Open.<br />

Yours in <strong>Taekwondo</strong><br />

Master Michael Tan<br />
