At MUTKD, we offer a wide range of events that allow members to compete, represent the university, perform demonstrations, and connect socially. Explore the different types of events below to learn more about what the club offers throughout the year.
MUTKD actively supports members who wish to compete and represent the University of Melbourne at inter-university and national events.
• Members have the opportunity to participate in competitions such as the Victorian Intervarsity Championships and UniSport Nationals
• Universities across Victoria and Australia compete against one another
• Due to Taekwondo’s belt-based system, competitions are accessible from yellow belt level and above
• Both kyorugi and poomsae competitors are supported through club training
Competition is entirely optional and open to members who are interested in challenging themselves in a competitive environment.
From time to time, MUTKD is invited to perform demonstrations at special university events such as Clubs Day and other showcases. These demonstrations are a great way to promote the club and share Taekwondo with the wider university community.
• Participation in demonstrations is voluntary
• Demonstrations may include pad kicking, simulated sparring, board breaking, and poomsae
• Opportunities to join the demonstration team are announced via club social media
Alongside training and competition, MUTKD places strong emphasis on building a welcoming and connected community. Social events provide members with opportunities to connect outside regular training sessions.
• The club hosts a range of social events throughout the year, including dinners, game nights, and social gatherings
• Members are encouraged to attend events regardless of experience level
• An annual club camp is organised, featuring team bonding activities, social events, and additional training sessions
