Badminton Canada has updated the status of national events hosted in Canada

The 2021 annual general meeting of Badminton Alberta will be held on Thursday, January 13th, 2022 at 6:00 PM at the Alberta Badminton Centre, 60 Patterson Blvd SW, Calgary, T3H 2E1. All members welcome!

Badminton Alberta offers a number of 2022 WINTER program choices in the Calgary area for youth aged 7-17 years of age interested in pursuing badminton. Group lessons are available Friday evenings at Southland Leisure Centre and Saturday mornings at Mount Royal University and the University of Calgary. 

The affairs of Badminton Alberta are managed by a volunteer Board of Directors.

The Board consists of four Executive Committee members plus eight Regional Directors. Each of the eight zones (two urban and six rural)­ will be represented by one Regional Director.

With the recent approval of the new Badminton Alberta bylaws (Service Alberta approved August 5, 2020), two executive positions on the Board of Directors are open for nomination.

The new Badminton Alberta Board of Directors will consist of four Executive Committee members and eight Regional Directors. Of the four Executive Committee members, the President and the Treasurer will be elected at the Annual General Meetings held within odd numbered fiscal years, while the Vice President and Secretary will be elected at alternate Annual General Meetings held for even numbered fiscal years.

Badminton Alberta values the relationship with its members and business partners. In order to solidify the relationship, we are now required to collect a waiver from all participants. We have chosen to utilize an Online Waiver? Online liability waivers function as an electronic signature for our clients to accept Badminton Alberta business policies before using our service.

Over the past 2-3 days many of you have experienced problems while trying to purchase your membership and licenses in order to register for the upcoming tournament. The problem have been rectified and the system is up and operational. We apologize for the inconvenience.

We have created a guide for parents looking to navigate the world of memberships and licensing within the new PlayerWeb.

Alberta has declared a state of public health emergency. COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations continue to rise, largely in unvaccinated Albertans. New measures to protect the health care system, stop the spread, and increase vaccination rates come into effect starting September 16.

Starting September 20, discretionary businesses and events must follow one of these 2 options:

1. Implement the Restrictions Exemption Program requiring proof of vaccination or negative test result to continue operating as usual, or
2. Follow business capacity and operating restrictions as outlined on the page below.

Badminton Alberta will be participating in the Restrictions Exemption Program as initiated by the Alberta Government effective September 20, 2021. These restrictions will be in effect at all sanctioned events including tournaments and youth/child lesson programs offered directly by Badminton Alberta.
