Volunteer Quota Registration
Each individual participant (student-athletes, coaches and volunteers) must first hold a BSTF account, have selected the correct pass type and received their BSTF ID code.
A team captain or institution administrator must submit their team’s head-coach, assistant coaches and volunteers (registering sufficient volunteers to meet your team quota) by selecting the event via the and completing the coach & volunteer registrations (this is required whether or not the same coaches and volunteer have already registered as competitors via the 果冻视频 Play system).
Each institution’s quota number is a function of your total team WT rules sparring entries and ITF rules sparring entries that day, each discipline’s quota calculated separately, with one assistant judge (L4) or corner judge (L3) qualified volunteer per five student-athletes sparring that day required (your volunteer quota may therefore be different for each day of a multi-day championships). For example, a team entering 14 student-athletes in ITF rules sparring and 19 student-athletes in WT rules sparring on the first day of a tournament would need to submit a minimum of two ITF-L4 trained volunteers and three WT-L4 trained volunteers that day.
For further information about university umpires, online training and one day training courses, and for larger clubs information regarding L2 centre referee trainee quotas, please visit the page.
All BSTF account holders are able to access L4 tests for free online – login to and go to the Exams tab to begin.
Volunteer assistant judges provided by clubs towards their quota for BSTF tournaments must have completed and passed the online (L4) exam before they may register themselves as a volunteer. Volunteers may be student-athletes competing in patterns events only on the same day of the event. L4 volunteers may be student-athletes who are sparring on a different day of a multi-day event. L4 volunteers may be current students, alumni members, or members of your wider taekwondo group(s).
L4 volunteers may not be student-athletes entered into any sparring event on the same day. L4 volunteers may not coach sparring athletes on the same day of the event they are submitted as volunteers.
All volunteers must be available for the full duration that day’s events, including attendance of the briefing session(s) listed in the itinerary. Teams will be penalised £75 for each infraction if a nominated volunteer corner judge or trainee referee from your team’s quota is absent, late, indolent, or behaves in an unprofessional or unsportsmanlike manner. Attire is sport shoes and black trousers, and a fetching yellow t-shirt will be loaned to volunteers for the day and must be worn.
We highly recommend all clubs encourage as many current student, alumni and other potential volunteers complete the online test as far in advance of tournaments as possible to give clubs maximum flexibility in this regard.
