Deadline for World Cup Tai Chi Chuan Championship - Extension Notice
Dear Tai Chi Friends,
I hope this letter finds you in good health and high
spirits. We are thrilled to extend our warmest invitation to you for the
upcoming World Cup Tai Chi Chuan Championship, an event that promises to be an
extraordinary celebration of skill, artistry, and camaraderie in the world of
Tai Chi.
We understand the significance of this Championship
for practitioners like yourself, and we want to ensure that every passionate
participant gets the opportunity to take part. Originally, the registration
deadline for the Championship was set for July 31. However, we acknowledge that
unforeseen circumstances, such as natural disasters or unexpected happenings,
can disrupt our plans and create challenges for potential participants.
In light of this, we are pleased to announce that we
have decided to extend the registration deadline by one week. This means you
now have until August 7 to complete your registration and secure your spot in
the competition. We believe that this extension will provide everyone with
ample time to overcome any inconveniences they might have faced.
Please be advised that this one-week extension is the
final deadline for registration. After August 7, we will not be able to accept
any further registrations due to logistical constraints in organizing the event
effectively. We urge you to take advantage of this additional time and ensure
that you register in time to avoid disappointment.
To register for the World Cup Tai Chi Chuan
Championship, kindly visit our official website at http://www.cttaichi.org/english/news02.php
and follow the registration instructions provided. If
you encounter any issues during the process or have any questions, do not
hesitate to contact our dedicated support team at tsaifucius60@gmail.com.
We genuinely appreciate your enthusiasm and passion
for Tai Chi Chuan, and we eagerly await your participation in the Championship.
Together, let us make this event a memorable and transformative experience for
all involved.
Thank you for your attention, and we look forward to
welcoming you to the World Cup Tai Chi Chuan Championship!
Warm regards,
Peter Tsai
Secretary General of World Tai Chi Chuan Federation

Invitation Letter
Date: 2023/04/25
Subject：World Championship in Taiwan
Dear Sirs,
It’s our pleasure to
invite you to
The Eighth World Cup of
Tai Chi Chuan
(forms, weapons,
push-hand)
We are proud to announce this grand event will be held in Taipei
Arena, Taiwan on 28th-29th of October 2023 along with the 9th
International Judge Seminar (on 25th-27th of October). In
November 2006, and during the month of October in 2008, 2010, 2012, 2014. 2016
and 2018, we held very successful World Cup Championships, with participation from more than 20 countries
and over 10,000 in attendance. We hope
you will join and help make the 8th World Cup in 2023 a grand success.
The Eighth World Cup, which was originally scheduled to be held in
2020, was postponed due to the coronavirus
epidemic. To be more cautious, we have postponed the event to this year. Now
that the epidemic situation has gradually eased, most countries have opened
their borders. Taiwan is no exception. On
April 13, the Central Epidemic Command Center (CECC) announced that, the border
is open to all purposes of entry and the requirement for visitors who don't
have COVID-19-related symptoms and exposure history to take rapid tests will be
removed. The Eighth World Cup will be held as scheduled, and we anticipate
a large turnout for this popular event.
Attached are Regulations for The Eighth World Cup Tai Chi Chuan
Championship 2023, and the 9th International Tai Chi Chuan Judge Seminar 2023.
Please do not hesitate to contact us and Please
do not hesitate to contact us and visit our website http://cttaichi.org/english/main.php
for more details. You can also visit the following websites for more details.
