I would also be expected to chair the team leaders’ meetings and draws, review and approve contingency plans, and make final decisions on such cases.” In short, I must ensure that all technical aspects of the planning and management of Olympic competitions are undertaken in accordance with the rules and practices of the World Federation (WT) and that all working conditions and services for the WT and the technical officials are at a sufficient level. Apart from the organisation, I am responsible for all the technical details of the competitions and I participate in the choice of Olympic referees. “I will start my mission this week with a first control visit to the Grand Palais in Paris which will witness the taekwondo events from 7 to 10 August 2024. I have to fix with them all the details concerning the organisation of the taekwondo events at the Olympic Games: tickets and their prices, the competition hall, the calendar, the colours, the format and the design of the hall and the tatamis (mats). Meedo said that from now until the 2024 Olympic Games “I must be in constant communication with the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and the Paris Olympics Organising Committee. I must be worthy of the trust of the World Taekwondo President Dr Chungwon Choue who chose me for this position.” “I am very happy since this position is the highest level in the sport, but you should know that it is a big responsibility. “It is also a great honour,” Shaaban said about being chosen the taekwondo technical delegate for the Paris Olympic Games. “It’s a big challenge and I want to be better than my predecessors, Meedo told Al-Ahram Weekly. In Paris 2024, Meedo, who is a member of the Council of the World Taekwondo and president of the Games Committee, will be the youngest to take over the job and the fifth non-Egyptian to assume responsibility for this position. Mohamed Shaaban will be the first Egyptian to chair a competition at the Olympic Games after his appointment as a technical delegate at the Paris Olympics in 2024.īasically, Shaaban, better known as Meedo, becomes the first non-African Arab to preside over the taekwondo events at the Olympics.
