The 2024 Yonex Canadian U23 & Junior Badminton Championships will be held at the state-of-the-art venue at the University of Moncton. With 11 courts and nearly 300 players across categories ranging from U13 to U23, it promises to showcase talent and skill from May 13 to 18.

Tickets will be sold for spectators, and tournament passes will be available for $40 and daily passes for $20. Plus, the free entry offer for those under 16 accompanied by an adult makes it accessible for families and young badminton enthusiasts.

Coaches play a crucial role, and the requirement for a 2023-2024 National Coaches License, along with NCCP Provincial Certification, ensures they are equipped to guide players effectively. An important reminder is that coaches must download the Coach Accreditation onto their phones BEFORE the event. See regulations here.

Additionally, including a Para Badminton Coaching Module Pilot alongside the tournament demonstrates a commitment to inclusivity and diversity within the sport. Providing opportunities for coaches to learn about coaching Para Badminton not only expands their skill set but also promotes accessibility and participation for athletes of all abilities. If you are interested, don't miss out; it's free! Details below:
