So this facebook page put up a picture,

Of 'new' taekwondo headguards and in the photo description said coaches are now required to wear suits when on the mat. Is this true or is this made up?

This was what they put in the description:

What are the WTF thinking about now?

WTF make two major changes 5 day before the World Cadet Championship is about to start.

The cadets will have a headguard with a face mask and coaches will have to wear a suit and tie..

Message from the WTF

The head gear will be provided for all athletes at the championship.

The WTF is well aware that this decision comes with little time left to prepare for the championship.Your understanding on this matter is highly appreciated as the decision concerns childrens safety.

In addition we ask coaches to wear a suit and tie when on the field of play.

Looking forward to seeing you in Baku

I have a new tshirt.The sleeves are quite short, but i was hoping for them to be a bit longer. The shirt is 100% cotton. Anyone know how to make them a bit longer? It is a normal, unisex t-shirt but i wanted to use it for sports so the sleeves are supposed to be longer. Thanks.

It pays to try stuff on, I have now learnt :p

I need some clothes. I am a bit of a tomboy. I am not a major tomboy but like to be comfy, but wear decent clothes. My family dont really purchase things online so I was looking for some shops which might be helpful. I have a few things from the mens section but most things from the womens, I do own some mens t shirts though but usually wear them with womens jeans that are slim fitted. I just need some ideas, and want some nice shirts to go out. I don't wear cropped tops though. I also don't wear vest tops. Any shop ideas, or if you see any clothes online you think i will like i will be more then happy if you post a link anyway. Thanks :)

I own a thin, sewn jumper which i purchased a while back. I really love the style. Its blue and has red stripes going across it. However it look pretty manly and i was wandering how to make it look slightly more feminine?

Ok, so it is not cold, and I am sweating after karate. But my right hand (which is my strongest hand) is shivering. It is uncontrollable, but not insanely fast shivering. I also get this during and after taekwondo often in my arms as well as my hand, mainly my right, taekwondo is 2 hours and karate is 1 hour. Does anybody know why i would be shivering and how to minimise it, as it is annoying, especially trying to hold a kicking pad during taekwondo or moving my computer mouse after a session of karate.

For a female, i know the weight categories, but I was curious to find out if you are, lets say ten kilograms or so over the highest weight category, as you are still over that weight can you participate? Or can they stop you? Is there a maximum weight?

I have bad athletes foot. WHen i went to the doctors a while back they gave me some powder. This was after we had tried athletes foot powder from the shop. My feet seem to always be itchy, red and sore and the skin is peeling. It doesn't help that i do martial arts twice a week so im barefoot on quite a grippy, rough floor. I keep[ using powder but nothing is shifting it, and it is just getting itchier and more inflamed Can anybody tell me anyways to reduce the itchiness and to try and get rid of athletes foot as i am sure it is athletes foot. Or shall i go back to the doctors?

Ok, so as it is getting warmer now, it is time for me to get the shorts out, i don't wear skirts. I am a girl but dislike skirts and dresses. Last year i barely wore shorts because my school uniform isn't shorts,and my PE ones were to small and i didn't get chance to buy anymore. Also most of my summer involved helping the younger children with there holiday football camp thing, so i wore knee high socks constantly, as this was what i had to wear because its our teams football kit. So i didn't need to worry much about leg hair last year. The few years before that i didn't care about it as i was younger, but now i am at that age that if you have dark leg hair people think its disgusting. Loads of people i know have really light brown or blonde leg hair and they don't shave and many people are jealous that they don't need to shave or remove it. I want to lighten my leg hair quite naturally but how? Does tanning work? My parents dont allow me to shave, wax or remove it as they think i am to 'young' and i cant buy any of the products myself as i have no money at the minute. Please help :) thank you

Next month i have just found out that i have my taekwondo grading. I am grading for my green belt with the blue stripe. Does anybody know roughly what kicks/blocks/punches i will need to perform so i know what to practice? I have not done grading for ages, since i was ill last time, so its been over a year. I know i need to do poomse 4 but any other tips?

I am a girl and next week i have the hpv cervical cancer vaccine. About 2 and a half hours later I have karate which i reallllllllly want to go to. Will i be up to it or will it be best to have the day off it and return to the next lesson?

Next Monday i have my first cervical cancer hpv vaccine, and i also have karate on mondays, will i be able to do it or will it hurt my arm to much? The injection is between 3.30pm-4.00pm and karate is at

6.45 so will i be able to do it or will i be in to much pain?

My two local outlet stores are sold out. I really would like to purchase one, so has anybody got any ideas where to buy a new, men's, large, hooded Superdry windcheater from? Preferably under £50?

Anyone have one? Any reviews, moans, opinions etc?

At the moment I am looking at purchasing a Superdry polar or artic windcheater. However my local outlet stores are sold out. Call me cheap, but no matter how nice these jackets are, and how much I want one, I am not paying £74.99 for one. Does anybody know of any discount codes for Superdry, House of Fraser or anywhere like that which sell these jackets. I am looking for a men's, large hooded, fleeced one. If anyone knows any promotion codes, or is selling one, or knows of a website which sell them cheap, please let me know.

I cant shave, laser or wax. I cant tan as its autumn. If i shaved i would just get nagged by my parents and sister. How can i make my leg hair lighter? Any cheap home made remidies? I want to wear shorts in PE but am embarised. Please help :)

Today i hugged a boy which i only met on wedensda, we seem to of made pretty good friends with eachother and i got a bit hyper and hugged him...i dont fancy him but when he smiled and came over to me i was like "Matt hi!!" then hugged him and he obviously tryed going away and i stayed hugging him for a few seconds then let go and said 'sorry i have some suger inside me' then he started laughing and said i gathered but was that weird coz i tjought it was friendly banter at the time but now i regret it, he seemed ok about it though

next monday i go back to school, bit because of moving house, i am starting a new one. I am rhe sort of person who is shy but loud and have fun with friends that i kniw really well. I do not know how to approach people and talk to them, but i want to settle in and have friends asap. How can i do this?

I have a short sleeved button down mens shirt from Next, and i am a girl. I am a tomboy but i want to wear it a bit girlier (not really girly) but i have no belt or anything to wear with it. Any ideas how or what i can wear with it? It is light and dark blue with thin green and pink stripes. I have a plain blue or green t shirt that look ok with it, but any ideas how i can wear it. I want to wear it tomorrow. Thanks :)

Every time i shave i get red little bumps on my legs. Is there anyway i can get rid of these? (i already know how to prevent them for future reference as i read it online) Also i am quite young (14)

and i don't enjoy shaving, and my family don't know i shave. I want to stop shaving till i am older bit have really dark leg hair and pale skin on my legs. Any advice on how to prevent shaving but not )looking disgusting in skirts or shorts?
