Charlotte, NC (September 30, 2024) - USA Taekwondo has been honored with the prestigious title of #1 Member National Association (MNA) in Governance by World Taekwondo at the recent General Assembly held in Korea, finishing ahead of the other 200+ member countries.

The top five MNAs were USA, Korea, Italy, France and Great Britain.

This is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our entire staff, board members, and volunteers who consistently strive for excellence in all aspects of our operations.

Building on our success in the Pan American region last year, this global acknowledgment from the International Federation is a real honor and reinforces our commitment to setting the highest standards in taekwondo governance."
The ranking reflects USA Taekwondo's ongoing efforts to enhance transparency, accountability, ethics and efficiency within its operations. The organization's commitment to these principles has not only improved its internal processes but has also set a benchmark for other national taekwondo associations worldwide.
