What does the word "Journal" mean in this context?

Thanks

Websters dictionary:
Journal, A daily newspaper, a periodical dealing with matters of current interest.

perhaps your thinking the Japanese Kanji says uechi ryu journal. It doesn't. The Kanji only says uechi ryu. If you look closely below are numbered bar codes. I would assume they are used as links to a daily article or something for the school

Acrually, this is a picture of a sticker. In watching utube videos I have seen thas worn as an embroirded patch without the bar codes. I will try to find one.

Having a uechi ryu background myself, like I said the Japanese reads "uechi ryu" most logos and school gi patches have the English written above. On occasion the organization name would be below. I have it tattooed on my shoulder. I have never seen the words "journal" associated with it other than the pic you posted. And I know a lot of people in that style. Sorry I couldn't help.
