Participant from any TKD Club may letter as long as their club adheres to the guidelines set forth. Including necessary equipment, insurance, Kukkiwon certified instructors, and a Booster Club.
We laid out these requirements to ensure we are recognizing the truly outstanding student athletes who dedicate their hearts to their journey in the martial arts. These requirements will allow all of our committed students to be recognized for their achievement not just a select few who make the varsity team.
