Officiating at the 37th National Games

Officiating at a high-ranking event like the 37th National Games in Goa is not just about standing on the mat. It is a responsibility to uphold the integrity of the sport. As an International Technical Official, my primary job is to ensure fair play, execute accurate scoring, and manage the high-pressure environment of competitive Kyorugi. These moments are where the rules we discuss in classroom sessions come to life.

I have seen how a single missed call or a misunderstanding of the World Taekwondo rules update can impact an athlete's career. This is why I keep my training curriculum grounded in these real-world scenarios. Whether I am conducting National Referee Seminars in regions like Rajasthan and Odisha or examining candidates for certification, I emphasize the importance of match management. My students learn how to read the game, use the electronic scoring system effectively, and maintain a commanding presence.

My role as an examiner for the national referee certification course means I see the gaps in officiating skills firsthand. I address these gaps directly in my seminars. We break down match situations, analyze rule changes, and practice hand signals until they become muscle memory. If you are a referee looking to sharpen your skills or an aspiring official wanting to understand the technical side of Taekwondo, my sessions offer the practical exposure you need to officiate with confidence. I teach what I practice on the national stage, ensuring you are ready for the intensity of competitive events.
