A l’instar de l’athl\u00e9tisme, le taekwondo se distingue comme l’une des disciplines embl\u00e9matiques des JO. En pleine expansion \u00e0 l’\u00e9chelle mondiale, ce sport occupe une place pr\u00e9pond\u00e9rante en Afrique. Mais quelle est la valeur r\u00e9elle du taekwondo sur le continent ?\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Rio 2016, finale des moins de 80kg. Plus que quelques secondes encore avant la fin du combat. Men\u00e9 6-4 par le Britannique Lutalo Muhammad, Cheick Salah Ciss\u00e9 n\u2019a plus le choix. L\u2019Ivoirien ex\u00e9cute un coup arri\u00e8re spectaculaire \u00e0 la t\u00eate de son adversaire.<\/p>\n

Quatre points suppl\u00e9mentaires pour l\u2019El\u00e9phant, c\u2019est gagn\u00e9 ! Ce geste, r\u00e9alis\u00e9 dans l\u2019urgence du combat, permet \u00e0 l\u2019Ivoirien -c\u2019est une premi\u00e8re- de d\u00e9crocher l’or olympique. Un succ\u00e8s consid\u00e9r\u00e9 comme le point de d\u00e9part du d\u00e9veloppement du taekwondo africain.<\/p>\n

Apr\u00e8s avoir \u00e9t\u00e9 pr\u00e9sent\u00e9 comme sport de d\u00e9monstration \u00e0 deux reprises, \u00e0 S\u00e9oul en 1988 puis \u00e0 Barcelone en 1992, le taekwondo a effectu\u00e9 son entr\u00e9e au programme olympique lors des Jeux de Sydney en 2000,<\/p>\n

Lors de cette premi\u00e8re \u00e9dition officielle, plusieurs pays africains qualifient des athl\u00e8tes, notamment la C\u00f4te d\u2019Ivoire avec N\u2019Guessan S\u00e9bastien Konan (-80 kg), le Maroc avec Younes Sekkat (-57 kg) et l\u2019\u00c9gypte avec Shimaa Afifi (-67 kg).<\/p>\n

Disciplinaire originaire de Cor\u00e9e du Sud, le taekwondo africain conna\u00eet une premi\u00e8re perc\u00e9e gr\u00e2ce au Gabonais Anthony Obame, qui obtient la premi\u00e8re m\u00e9daille olympique africaine -en argent- \u00e0 Londres en 2012.<\/p>\n

La discipline va d\u00e8s lors beaucoup gagner en popularit\u00e9 en Afrique \u00e0 la suite de la m\u00e9daille d\u2019or olympique de l’Ivoirien Ciss\u00e9 Cheick Salah quatre ans plus tard.<\/p>\n

\u00ab A partir de Rio en 2016, le taekwondo africain a commenc\u00e9 \u00e0 briller et \u00e0 glaner des m\u00e9dailles olympiques. Depuis lors, il conna\u00eet une croissance \u00bb, explique Alioune Traor\u00e9, le Pr\u00e9sident de la F\u00e9d\u00e9ration Malienne de Taekwondo.<\/p>\n

En C\u00f4te d\u2019Ivoire, le nombre de licenci\u00e9s ne cesse de grandir : de 16 000 \u00e0 plus de 46 000 en une dizaine d\u2019ann\u00e9es au point que l\u2019art martial devient le deuxi\u00e8me sport du pays apr\u00e8s le football. Les succ\u00e8s de Cheick Salah Ciss\u00e9 et de Ruth Gbagbi y sont pour beaucoup.<\/p>\n

Au Niger, avec l’ic\u00f4ne Alfaga Issoufou, m\u00e9daill\u00e9 d\u2019argent olympique \u00e0 Rio 2016, le taekwondo conna\u00eet une \u2018\u2019explosion\u2019\u2019en termes de licenci\u00e9s. \u00c0 ce jour, la base de donn\u00e9es de la f\u00e9d\u00e9ration nig\u00e9rienne de taekwondo compte 60 000 pratiquants licenci\u00e9s.<\/p>\n

Gr\u00e2ce \u00e0 ce leader naturel, la F\u00e9d\u00e9ration s\u2019est structur\u00e9e en mettant en place une politique permanente de recensement des pratiquants licenci\u00e9s. A Niamey, le taekwondo occupe la deuxi\u00e8me place en termes de pratiquants derri\u00e8re la lutte traditionnelle, selon Mohamed Alfa Zazi, le secr\u00e9taire g\u00e9n\u00e9ral de la f\u00e9d\u00e9ration.<\/p>\n

Au Mali, le taekwondo appara\u00eet \u00e0 la troisi\u00e8me place des disciplines sportives apr\u00e8s le football et le basketball, avec 30 000 licenci\u00e9s.<\/p>\n

\u00ab En termes d\u2019organisation formelle, \u00e0 l\u2019exception de l\u2019\u00c9rythr\u00e9e qui se met tout juste en place, tous les pays disposent de structures de d\u00e9veloppement de taekwondo. Ces f\u00e9d\u00e9rations peuvent sembler faibles, mais elles existent et travaillent \u00bb pr\u00e9cise Alioune Traor\u00e9. Confiant, il ajoute : \u201cDans les ann\u00e9es \u00e0 venir le taekwondo africain sera en p\u00f4le position\u2019\u2019.<\/p>\n

De Dakar \u00e0 Niamey en passant par Libreville, Bangui, Kinshasa, Le Caire et<\/p>\n

les pays du Maghreb, partout le taekwondo gagne en licenci\u00e9s et en pratiquants. Le temps de la d\u00e9couverte a c\u00e9d\u00e9 la place \u00e0 celui des conqu\u00eates.<\/p>\n
