From January 2 to 4, 2026, the Gymnase Broustal sports complex in the commune of Trappes will host New Year’s Camp, the sixth New Year’s training camp for Olympic taekwondo.
The organizers are positioning the event as one of the most anticipated training camps in France. In the announcements, the camp is described as a “training camp à ne pas manquer” — a camp not to be missed. The sports complex is located in the suburbs of Paris and is designed to accommodate a large number of participants, allowing athletes from different clubs and national federations to come together in one place.
Target Audience and Camp Objectives
New Year’s Camp 2026 is billed as an Olympic taekwondo training camp with a focus on improving technical and physical skills at the start of the new season. The organizers emphasize that the camp is aimed at competitive athletes for whom it is important to start the year with intensive training under the guidance of an international coaching staff.
The event is recommended for those who are planning an active tournament season. The camp serves as a pre-season bridge between the holidays and the first block of competitions, allowing athletes to quickly get in shape and test new tactical solutions.
Registration and geography of participants
Registration for New Year’s Camp 2026 is carried out through the specialized platform martial.events, where all the technical details of participation are specified. The deadline for applications is December 15, 2025 (23:59 GMT). At the time of publication, the status of recruitment is marked as open.
Published statistics on applications show steady interest from clubs: more than 100 registrations have been recorded on the platform. At the same time, the number of applications exceeds 100 participants, with a sufficient number of places available — the quota for participants has not yet been exhausted.
To contact the organizing committee, a contact block is provided on the event page, allowing coaches and team representatives to clarify the conditions of participation and logistics directly.
Significance of the sixth season
The fact that New Year’s Camp is being held for the sixth time demonstrates the stability of the project and its popularity among athletes practicing Olympic taekwondo. The three-day format at the beginning of January traditionally allows athletes to use the period immediately after the New Year holidays for active preparation and to get into the competitive rhythm of the new season.
The location in the suburbs of Paris ensures the venue’s accessibility for participants, and the infrastructure of the Gymnase Broustal sports complex allows for a full training process to be organized for a large number of athletes at the same time.
