National Administrator Course
In order for badminton to not only grow but also prosper, it is important that both the BWF and the national federations that make up its membership have clear governance structures in place. Such structures are key in achieving the transparency, accountability and responsibility that will result in careful planning and budgeting processes, along with the necessary follow-up measures to achieve long-term results.
Badminton Europe and BWF are committed to help national federations developing their administrative personnel as part of its ongoing efforts to support the growth of badminton on a worldwide level.
The fifth edition of World Academy of Sport National Administrators' course was conducted from 5th to 6th October 2023 in Glasgow, Scotland.
