Rules and Registration
Take a minute to read through all the rules below and then register you and your school to be part of the new TNZ School Championship.
Eligibility
Championship points may only be earned by registered school students competing in TNZ-sanctioned tournaments.
Points are awarded to the school of the student, not the individual competitor.
Points Structure
3 Points – Participation in a TNZ-sanctioned tournament.
10 Points – Participation in two or more categories (e.g., Poomsae & Kyorugi) in the same TNZ-sanctioned tournament.
20 Points – Division Bronze in a TNZ-sanctioned tournament.
30 Points – Division Silver in a TNZ-sanctioned tournament.
50 Points – Division Gold in a TNZ-sanctioned tournament.
Conditions of Points Awarding
Points are cumulative (e.g., an athlete who wins a Gold medal in Poomsae and also competes in Kyorugi will earn both participation points and medal points).
A competitor may only earn points for results officially confirmed by the tournament organisers and TNZ.
Evidence of Results
Students must submit evidence of tournament participation and results to schools@newzealandtaekwondo.co.nz.
Evidence must include the competitor’s full name, school, tournament name/date, and official results.
Championship Rankings
Points will be tallied throughout the year and updated on the official TNZ Schools Championship leaderboard.
Disputes
All disputes must be directed to schools@newzealandtaekwondo.co.nz and will be reviewed by the TNZ Board. Once the TNZ Board has made a final decision, no further correspondence will be entered into.
The school with the highest total points at the end of the season will be crowned 2026 Schools Taekwondo Champion.
