Applicable Regulations 1.1 These CISM Taekwondo Sport Regulations are designed to be read in conjunction with CISM Regulations and the World Taekwondo Federation (WTF) Competition Rules The CISM Sport Committee (CSC) is replaced with CISM Taekwondo Committee in the CISM Taekwondo Sport Regulation. The CSC and CISM Taekwondo Committee are interchangeable in the sport of Taekwondo in CISM In the past, Permanent Technical Committee (PTC) and Technical Committee (TC) were used. These titles are no longer in use, but should be understood to mean the CSC, and in the case of Taekwondo, the CISM Taekwondo Committee. 1.2 For all general matters, CISM Regulations will be followed at all CISM Taekwondo championships. 1.3 For all technical matters dealing with Taekwondo competition, CISM Taekwondo Sport Regulations and the most current WTF Competition Rules (less those aspects modified by these CISM Taekwondo Sport Regulations) will be followed at all CISM Taekwondo championships. These CISM Taekwondo Sport Regulations are intended to clarify and elaborate as required on the technical requirements of Taekwondo competition in CISM. The major differences between CISM Taekwondo Regulations and WTF Competition Rules are: Technical supervision at CISM Taekwondo championships is the sole responsibility of the CISM Taekwondo Committee The WTF requirements for athlete eligibility (Kukkiwon Dan Certificate, passport, Global Athlete License (GAL), and recommendation of the national Taekwondo federation) will be modified to require the Kukkiwon Dan certificate, the recommendation by the athlete s CISM Delegation (accomplished by the entry form), GAL, and a military identification card (which will substitute for a passport) The CISM Taekwondo Committee will perform the role of Technical Jury as specified in CISM Regulations, and the roles of the Competition Supervisory Board (CSB) and the Board of Arbitration as specified in WTF Competition Rules. 3

25 1.3.4 All other matters not involving protests regarding match scores and match decisions may be appealed to the Jury of Appeal in accordance with CISM Regulations of Procedure. 1.4 In the event of conflict between CISM Taekwondo Regulations and either CISM Regulations or the WTF Competition Rules regarding the technical aspects of CISM Taekwondo competition, these CISM Taekwondo Sport Regulations will take precedence. 1.5 Situations regarding the technical aspects of Taekwondo competition that cannot be decided by the WTF Competition Rules and that are not covered by these CISM Taekwondo Sport Regulations will be decided by the CISM Taekwondo Committee. These decisions will remain in force only for that particular competition. 1.6 CISM Regulations for Doping Control will be used in CISM Taekwondo Championships. The list of banned substances and methods will be the most current list published by the International Olympic Committee s Medical Commission. 1.7 The host country CISM Delegation is responsible to ensure that the Organizing Committee is in possession of the most current versions of the following regulations that will guide the Organizing Committee in the organization of the championship: CISM Regulations CISM Taekwondo Sport Regulations CISM Anti-Doping Regulations WTF Competition Rules WTF Doping Control Guide 2. Organization of Championships 2.1 A CISM World Military Taekwondo Championship will be organized at least every two years, normally between August and October. 2.2 The CISM Board of Directors Assembly will approve the CISM world events calendar for the next two years.
