WT Seoul Headquarters prepared a memorial place for Gen. Fouly.
This memorial website was created in memory of our loved one, Ahmed Fouly 70 years old , born on November 18, 1949 and passed away on September 27, 2020. We will remember him forever.

Gen. Fouly had not only served as World Taekwondo Vice President but he also had contributed to those less fortunate through his support of the Taekwondo Humanitarian Foundation (THF) and also served as Chairman of the World Taekwondo Hall of Fame Committee.

Gen. Fouly will be greatly missed but his legacy will live on and continue to benefit generations of taekwondo athletes in Africa and beyond. World Taekwondo’s thoughts are with his family at this very difficult time.

To a great Taekwondo Man!
I met the GEN. Fouly (Vice-President of WT and a President of WTA) many years ago. From the first moment I realized that I was in presence of a Man of great inner culture and a defender person of good values, not only in Taekwondo culture, but for "Life".
In this moment of deep pain, I would like to leave a word of encouragement to his family.

It is very bad news to learn of the passing of this beloved man M General FOULY.
Since I have known this great person, I have always appreciated his human qualities through his kindness and his personality.
He has done so much for African Taekwondo and for International Taekwondo that there are few words to describe his journey. He is an example to me and he will remain so.
I wish his family, loved ones and all those who loved him all the courage they need to overcome this ordeal which saddens us.
The French Taekwondo family joins in my grief in offering to all of you their sincere condolences.

His Life
September 28, 2020
by Administration WT
We lost a great man of Taekwondo. Since 2001 when he became a member of the WT Council, and especially since 2004 when I appointed him as vice president of World Taekwondo, Gen. Fouly dedicated his life to elevating our beloved martial art and sport to what we are today – one of the best governed Olympic and Paralympic international sport federations in the world.

In his capacity as president of Taekwondo Africa, Gen. Fouly oversaw the meteoric rise of Taekwondo in the region. Five medals from Africa under his leadership at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games truly demonstrated the universality of Taekwondo to the world. Taekwondo is now one of the most popular sports in Africa, and continue to produce champions on and off the mat.

But perhaps more importantly, for those of us who know Gen. Fouly personally, we have lost a great friend and brother. Throughout my presidency and especially in my personal life, Gen. Fouly was one of the most trusted, trustworthy, and supportive friends that anyone could have had. I was truly blessed to have met Gen. Fouly and to have called him my brother.

Our brother may be gone, but his contributions to Taekwondo will never be forgotten. My memories of Gen. Fouly and love for him as my brother will never be forgotten.
