I am looking for information online about tournaments in GA..
eventually I would like to compete on a national level. I have found some organizations, but I am a little fuzzy on what styles of TKD are allowed.. whether it be ITF, WTF, or ATA.. I'm guessing an ITF fighter couldn't compete in an ATA tourney (although that would be fun).

An ITF fighter could participate in an ATA tournament, but you would have to be a member of the ATA. Just go join a school, and tell them you train ITF as well. Then you could compete with them.
For forms competition, you would have to use the ATA forms. Sparring wise, though, you would be filled in by the instructor as to contact levels aloud, etc.
You could also look into AAU competitions. They have both point sparring and Olympic style sparring.
