Does Badminton excite you and your kids? That is great news and we have some bigger news for you!

Badminton Malta together with SportMalta are launching the new Badminton Academy as part of the #OnTheMove Programme. We will be kicking off the academy this summer with The Summer Academy and will keep on going with The Badminton Academy. But why is this such a great news for you and your children?

1. Badminton is a fast-growing sport!

Ok. Football is great, we love basketball, handball and any other sport. They are all good for the general wellbeing, for keeping active for having a sporting career and also to watch, but we believe that Badminton is another great opportunity for all children who would like to have a bright future in sports! Badminton is fast, exciting and we believe it’s the next BIG THING. Just take a look below to see what it offers.

2. Badminton is the fastest racket sport in the world!

The shuttlecock reached speeds of 332kph in a competition! It is an olympic sport that keeps everyone on the edge of their seat when watching it and the adrenaline high when playing it. The only unhappy guy here is the shuttlecock!
