Disability Junior National Championships
About
Badminton England are delivering a new Disability Junior National Championships to raise the profile of badminton amongst secondary age pupils with a physical disability. Delivered with the support of the GB Para Badminton Squad & Coaches, this national competition structure will engage new disabled players to provide them with their first introduction to disability competition and ultimately increase disability participation. This is part of Badminton England’s Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) Strategy, which includes increasing disability provision.
 The Disability Junior National Championships are being held at the English Institute of Sport (EIS), Sheffield on Saturday 17th June 2023.  Â
