Purpose This study aims to uncover the key drivers behind the noteworthy accomplishments of UK Taekwondo in international sporting competitions, employing the SPLISS model as a framework, with the objective of undertaking a sport-specific analysis of elite sports progression. Method Drawing upon qualitative document analysis and specifically leveraging content analysis, this research scrutinised the evolution and policies of UK Taekwondo. Data was ground in 23 annual reports from key entities, including UK Sport, GB Taekwondo and British Taekwondo, and information from online resources such as articles, videos, and official websites. Results Through content analysis, this study deciphered 9 crucial policy areas resonating with the SPLISS model within the UK’s Taekwondo framework, with Talent Identification (TI) and Talent Development (TD) standing out significantly. Three key findings are suggested. First, post-2008 Beijing Olympics, UK Taekwondo entities, especially GB Taekwondo, demonstrated well-defined roles and sustained financial support. Second, to counteract the challenge of a limited talent pool, the UK launched an innovative ‘Fighting Chance’ initiative, TI, using a Talent Transfer (TT) strategy. Third, during the early development stage of UK Taekwondo, the expertise of foreign coaches, particularly from South Korea, was solicited to enrich and establish coaching services. Conclusion This study supports the view that sport success strategies should be tailor-made to fit unique social and cultural contexts. This underscores the need for sports managers and policymakers to consider unique factors when developing and applying elite sports policies.
