Taekwondo Software in the UK
If you run a taekwondo club or tournament in the UK, this is the short, practical guide to the taekwondo software you actually need — tournament management, scoring, brackets, grading and club admin — with the features that matter locally and pricing that works for the whole United Kingdom.

Taekwondo in the UK: the local picture
The UK taekwondo scene is one of the most active in Europe — anywhere from 40 to 60 sanctioned competitions every year, plus hundreds of interclubs and grading days. Software has to work across all four home nations, handle both ITF and WT rule sets, and stay within the reach of clubs that are often run by volunteers around day jobs.
Events in the UK typically run in venues like the Copper Box Arena in London, Genting Arena in Birmingham, Utilita Arena Sheffield, Emirates Arena in Glasgow and the SSE Arena in Belfast. On the federation side, clubs here operate under GB Taekwondo, British Taekwondo, the TAGB, ITF UK, UKITF and a long tail of independent associations, and a 40-member independent club in the Midlands is a pretty typical profile. Entry lists can come from ranging from G1 in Glasgow to TR for Cornwall.
What the UK clubs need from taekwondo software
The feature priorities for UK clubs are mostly the same as anywhere else in the UK, but a few things matter more here:
- Multi-federation support. UK events often mix ITF and WT entrants. Software that only does one style forces you to run two events in parallel. Ours handles both in the same licence.
- Offline-first live scoring. Venue Wi-Fi in the UK sports halls is rarely competition-grade. Tablets must score offline and sync when they reconnect — no exceptions.
- Fast bracket rebuild. Late withdrawals happen everywhere; the ability to rebuild a bracket in 30 seconds matters more in the UK than almost anything else, because event slots in local leisure centres are tight.
- Affordable per-event pricing. Most UK clubs run 1–4 events a year. Annual subscriptions don't fit. Per-event licences from £39 do.
- UK-based support on Saturdays. Your event is on a Saturday morning. UK-time support who actually answers is not optional.
Taekwondo tournament software for UK
If you're organising an open, a regional championship or a club invitational in the UK, you need taekwondo tournament software that covers the full cycle: online registration, brackets, weigh-in, multi-ring live scoring, medals and certificates. Taekwondo Competition Manager handles all of this on a single per-event licence — most UK organisers run it on 3–8 tablets plus a laptop at the registration desk.
For the full walk-through see our guide to organising a taekwondo competition and the event-day checklist.
Taekwondo scoring software for UK events
For live scoring, the UK clubs use whatever tablets they already own at the corner tables — all you need is internet and a browser. Supports ITF point-stop kyorugi, WT continuous kyorugi, WT and ITF poomsae. Full detail in our live scoring guide and the tablet setup for judges.
Bracket generator for UK organisers
Our bracket generator handles single elimination, double elimination and round robin, with proper seeding and bye placement. For the rules-side of what that means see the bracket generator guide, fair seeding and walkovers and byes.
Grading day software for UK clubs
Most the UK clubs run 2–4 gradings a year. The grading mode is included on the same licence — kup/dan syllabus, examiner sheets on tablets, pass/fail tally, bulk certificate print. Full playbook: how to run a grading day without the chaos.
ITF or WT? Same software
UK has clubs in both camps. The software runs both rule sets on the same event, so a mixed-federation open (common in the UK) doesn't mean running two parallel systems. See our ITF vs WT software comparison for the detail.
Pricing for UK clubs & federations
- Per-event licence: from £39 per competition — best for clubs running 1–4 events a year.
- Annual plan: for federations and series organisers running 5+ events a year.
- Grading-only mode: lighter licence for clubs that only need grading-day tooling.
- All-in transparent pricing: GBP, includes UK VAT where applicable, no per-competitor surprise fees.

FAQ — UK
What is the best taekwondo software for clubs in the UK?
It depends on size. Small interclubs can survive on free tools. Anything above 30 competitors, or with multiple rings, justifies purpose-built software. Taekwondo Competition Manager is used by the UK-based clubs at both ends of that scale.
Does it work for Welsh-speaking / bilingual clubs?
The current app is English-only; multi-language support is on the roadmap. Contact us if bilingual display is important for your event.
Is there UK-based support during competitions?
Yes. UK-hour email and chat support, with faster response on competition Saturdays for active licence holders. Our support is based in the UK — no time-zone gap.
Can I run a grading day on the same licence?
Yes, grading mode is included. You don't need a separate product.
