History of Badminton
Facts and Records History of Badminton In 1873, the Duke of Beaufort held a lawn party at his country house in the village of Badminton, Gloucestershire. A game of Poona was played on that day and became popular among British society’s elite. The new party sport became known as “the Badminton game”. In 1877, the Bath Badminton Club was formed and developed the first official set of rules. The Badminton Association was formed at a meeting in Southsea on 13th September 1893. It was the first National Association in the world and framed the rules for the Association and for the game. The popularity of the sport increased rapidly with 300 clubs being introduced by the 1920’s. Rising to 9,000 shortly after World War Π. The International Badminton Federation (IBF) was formed in 1934 with nine founding members: England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Denmark, Holland, Canada, New Zealand and France and as a consequence the Badminton Association became the Badminton Association of England. From nine founding members, the IBF, now called the Badminton World Federation (BWF), has over 160 member countries. The future of Badminton looks bright. Badminton was officially granted Olympic status in the 1992 Barcelona Games. Indonesia was the dominant force in that first Olympic tournament, winning two golds, a silver and a bronze; the country’s first Olympic medals in its history. More than 1.1 billion people watched the 1992 Olympic Badminton competition on television. Eight years later, and more than a century after introducing Badminton to the world, Britain claimed their first medal in the Olympics when Simon Archer and Jo Goode achieved Mixed Doubles Bronze in Sydney. -

Problems, Possibilities, Promising Practices: Critical Dialogues on the Olympic and Paralympic Games Eleventh International Symposium for Olympic Research Editors Janice Forsyth Michael K. Heine Western University Canada London, Ontario October 19-20, 2012 The International Centre for Olympic Studies The International Centre for Olympic Studies, established at The University of Western Ontario in 1989, was the first of its kind in the world. It remains the only such Centre in the Americas. It has as its primary mission the generation and dissemination of academic scholarship focused specifically upon the socio- cultural study of the Olympic Games and the Olympic Movement. In order to bring this endeavor to frui- tion, the Centre pursues the following four initiatives: 1. The Centre produces Olympika: The International Journal of Olympic Studies. This refereed schol- arly journal, which has an internationally recognized editorial review board, is currently published annually, and is available for subscription throughout the world. 2. The Centre hosts an important International Symposium for Olympic Research in every Olympic year. The Centre publishes the Proceedings of these symposia. 3. The Centre organizes and sponsors regular guest lectures presented by recognized Olympic schol- ars and officials, including three annual honor addresses entitled the Ion P. Ioannides, the J. How- ard Crocker, and the Earle F. Zeigler Lectures. 4. The Centre maintains a resource unit in its home in the Arthur and Sonia Labatt Health Sciences Building (Room 317) for the use of visiting scholars worldwide, as well as for faculty members, graduate and undergraduate students at The University of Western Ontario. The Centre welcomes and invites correspondence concerning any or all of these matters, and encourages scholars to consider participating in the Twelfth International Symposium for Olympic Research, sched- uled for the second half of 2014. -
