Logan Campbell (born 7 June 1986, in Auckland) is a New Zealand taekwondo practitioner who competed at the 2008 Beijing Olympics and 2012 London Olympics.
Campbell was first attracted to taekwondo as a child after watching The Karate Kid but initially struggled at the sport. He kept at it and won his first international tournament at the age of 13. He qualified for the 2005 Taekwondo World Championships and in 2006 won the WTF-Oceania Championships coming back from being down 3–0 in the final. In order to take part internationally he was funded by his parents but shortly before the 2008 Olympics did manage to get some sponsorship.
Campbell qualified for the Olympics after winning the Featherweight (under 68 kg) category at the 2007 Oceania Qualification Tournament and won the Korean Open in July 2008. He broke his arm seven weeks before the Olympics, but it healed in time for him to participate. However he was drawn against the 2007 World Champion Sung Yu-chi in the first round, and lost to him 4–0.
