Akon Baak - 2023 Taekwondo Cadet World Championships Sarajevo

Akon Baak - 2023 Taekwondo Cadet World Championships Sarajevo

I am a national and international level multi-sport competitor having represented Australia and South Australia in taekwondo and South Australia in athletics.  In 2022 I represented Australia in the Taekwondo Cadet World Championships in Bulgaria, where I was defeated in R16 by a more experienced competitor from Ivory Coast.

I have been selected again this year to represent Australia at the 2023 Taekwondo Cadet World Championships which will be held in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Travel to international competitions unfortunately doesn't receive any government support , so I am reliant on the generous support of friends, family and the community to be able to travel for my sport. I am really grateful for all the support that I have received for my sporting journey so far, and hope that I will be able to continue my journey. My long term goal is to attend taekwondo senior World Championships and ultimately represent Australia at the Olympics.
