Oh i didn't mean that the TAGB would be the governing body for olympic Tae Kwon-Do. I meant that they have been spoken to about being allowed to enter the olympics.

I'd say the talk is more about the possibility of TAGB fighters trying out for the British Olympic team, as the TAGB hosts and takes part in different open WTF style events as well. I bet the IOC doesn't even know about the existence of the TAGB, so it's more about going to the Olympics through the WTF and doing WTF style, more national level thing I suppose.

I must admit my ignorance. I kwon of WTF, and ITF but what is the TAGB? I noticed it being said on a few threads and those saying it seemed to be from the UK area.

TAGB stands for Taekwon-do Association of Great Britain, UK's biggest independent TKD group with ITF roots (but unaffiliated to any of the ITFs).
