The BADMINTON England Leader Award is an opportunity for leaders to develop skills that will assist them to lead and volunteer in their local badminton environment. The award is aimed at anyone aged 15 and over and is conducted online.
 
At present the award is free of charge to complete,

The award covers three learning modules:
1. Event Leader
2. Club Leader
3. Activity Leader

The modules contain information and interactive tasks that can be completed at a time and pace to suit the learner.

Learners have the option to complete as many of the modules as they wish but to be certificated they must complete and log a period of practical experience. During the practical experience the learner will be paired with a learning mentor to guide and support them. BADMINTON England recommends a minimum of 5 hours of practical experience per module, but the learners will only be signed off and approved for their award once their mentor feels they are a capable and confident leader.

The module(s) completed will correspond to the award which is achieved, so learners do not need to complete all three modules. If all three modules are completed then the learners will become a ‘Badminton Leader’.

The award is designed for those who have already gained a qualification in leadership, either, a Level 1 in Sports Leadership (SL1), a Level 2 in Community Sports Leadership Award (CSLA), a Certificate from a Day Sports Leader Awards, another National Governing Body award or practical experience.
