BEC BASIS Membership Exchange Programme (MEP) in General

INTRODUCTION

Badminton Europe (BEC) is delighted to introduce a new programme under BASIS – Member Exchange Programme (MEP). The aim of this programme is to enable BEC Members to share and learn best practices from each other. BEC aims to organize one MEP annually.

The MEP provides the platform and opportunity to our Members to exchange knowledge, enhance improvement and extend badminton networks of both the hosting and participating Members. The pilot session was held in Paris, hosted by the French Badminton Federation on Tuesday, 22nd October 2019. Topics discussed were High Performance Structure and Sport for All in France.
