Para-Badminton

Para-Badminton is experiencing significant growth both in the UK and internationally and we are delighted to be able to integrate Para-Badminton athletes within the Loughborough environment.

The Loughborough Para-Badminton offer integrates with the Performance and AU programmes depending on the level and classification of the athlete.
