Our Vision
The BUTL provides students with the most inclusive, competitive, and high-quality Taekwon-Do opportunities in the world.
Our Mission
To deliver a world-class competitive and educational experience tailored specifically to university and college-level Taekwon-Do practitioners.
BUTL is dedicated to upholding the highest standards in university sport, supporting both national and international clubs, and ensuring access to unique and professionally managed opportunities for student athletes.
Our Aims

- Promote Community and Integration – Encourage collaboration and social cohesion among student Taekwon-Do clubs across the UK and Ireland.
- Enhance Accessibility – Provide innovative and affordable opportunities for university and college students to engage in both competitive and educational aspects of Taekwon-Do.
- Elevate the Sport – Advance Taekwon-Do at an institutional level by offering a world-class experience that supports athletic development, academic integration, and international representation.
