Warnings also have value beyond their direct impact on the scoreboard. We can use warnings (particularly traveling) to increase pressure and build momentum, improving ring position and bringing your opponent closer to a lost point. We can also use a warning to interrupt our opponents momentum (if we’re careful to observe the rules) and slow the match down for a moment. We can take advantage of re-starts to catch our opponent watching the scoreboard  or focusing on their coach rather than the opponent. We can even use our opponent’s shot selection preferences to force warnings, drawing a spin or retreating side kick for example.

Warnings exist to protect the fighters and promote a desired style of play. The match should take place; on your feet, within the square, hitting legal targets, without undue celebration or gamesmanship and without employing obstructive tactics to deny scores. But of course sparring is a game and to be successful in any game you have to utilise all the avenues to victory as appropriate. That’s why we design scenarios and constraints to force us to evaluate the game state and make the correct decisions under pressure when we train around warnings in sparring.

Footwork is one of the major keys to defence and not conceding scores. This is especially the case in ITF TKD more than other combat sports such as boxing where leaning and covering are alternatives. However, this is not practical for ITF due to the speed of the sport and the not the mention the added threat of kicks as well as punches. This certainly eliminates the practicality of leaning as we have an additional two limbs to worry about.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

It is clear the rule set and scoring system make avoiding and moving the most valuable form of defence for ITF (apart from counter attacking of course).This is evident in high level events where it is clear the best form of defence is not to be within range and the hit and not be hit approach is quite a successful approach for a lot of competitors. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

The most elite defensive mastermind of combat are able to use footwork to their advantage in order to be able to quickly transition from defence to attack and are usually phenomenal counter attackers. Footwork facilitates the ability to link distance and timing to be in a position to not get hit while still set up opportunities to fire back themselves. It is said the best defence fighters are just outside of range of being hit while close enough to land themselves. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
