Amateur Youth Sports Foundation is excited to launch the Taekwondo Varsity Lettering Program. The varsity Lettering Program was started to recognize and honor student-athletes in grades nine through twelve. This program allows high school students to receive a varsity letter, just like that of any other varsity high school athlete. Earning a Varsity letter through AYSF is a great way for a student to get recognized for his or her dedication to the taekwondo sport. Getting recognized as a varsity letter holder can benefit athletes in several ways other than just being formally recognized. One way it helps is when completing college applications or resumes because getting recognized through a formal foundation gives more credibility.​

       The lettering can also help athletes avoid taking an extra physical education credit. Some schools count sports outside the classroom for this requirement. This can allow a student to put taekwondo training towards their physical education instead of having to take the actual class, just like a varsity sports player could do.
