The British Student Taekwondo Federation (BSTF) is a national student sport federation and registered charity, number 1169895. Founded in 1986, we are governed by an elected board of trustees and project a national student voice for more than 70 active university Taekwondo clubs. The mission of the British Student Taekwondo Federation is:
The advancement for the public benefit of physical education among students in Universities and Colleges by the provision of services and promotion of the martial art and amateur sport of Taekwondo. To this aim we provide various support services, and deliver a range of programmes and events including training camps, officials’ courses, university open tournaments, BUCS London University Sports League tournaments, European Universities Games qualification events and team management, and the hugely popular multi-discipline Student National Taekwondo Championships. We work closely with a variety of valued partners and sponsors including suppliers, athletic unions and sports departments, NGBs, Taekwondo associations and companies and British Universities and Colleges Sport (BUCS). We provide the framework for open, multi-discipline competition between all university clubs, independently managing and insuring our events to enable all university Taekwondo practitioners to train and compete together.
