French Badminton Federation Le Bad for young people

A) Needs shared with other public and private partners:

Local authorities, within the framework of their general competence clause, in particular the general council, the intercommunality and the municipality are very sensitive to public educational and social policies for welcoming young people in sports clubs. They also participate in supporting the territorial deployment of the Course of Sporting Excellence on their territory, in particular with the support of regional councils.

The State, the ministry in charge of sports in particular via the action of the National Center for the Development of Sport CNDSaims to correct the inequalities of access to sports practices for all audiences, especially young people. The ministry also aims to France’s international influence through the support of the Parcours de l’Excellence Sportif allowing detection, selection, training from collectives in France to performance in the youth and senior categories.

It is also on the side of the ministry National Education, Higher Education and Research, the place occupied by badminton in the programming of physical education and sports at the different class levels and by a significant dynamism within the framework of the offer of school federations USEP, UGSEL, UNSS and academics FFSU which must facilitate the footbridges to our clubs.

B) Context of the federal “badminton 3.0 club objective” project (excerpt):

The FFBaD has been equipped since 2001 of a federal association project. After a review in 2008, the new team elected in 2013 expressed the desire to propose a new project, taking into account the evolution of badminton in France, the changing context in which it evolves, as well as the adoption of new objectives. The project aims to consolidate badminton as a major sport in France and France as a major nation in international badminton.

For this, it endeavors to propose a coherence of actions, to mobilize energies, to provide concrete help to the actors, to clarify the choices, to clarify and to put in cohesion the missions, and finally to promote French Badminton and the FFBaD.

The project, called Badminton 3.0, club objective », is thus oriented towards an ambitious vision of Badminton in 2020, which is based on the emergence of the club as a driving force in federal life both in terms of the number and the excellence of the licensees.

5.1 Achieving athletic performance

The FFBaD will devote the necessary means to meet this objective,…

Added to this essential issue is the necessary renewal of the elite. The search for effective training for the next generation, from a very young age up to high-level access, is a priority. The FFBaD intends to continue to develop a path to access to sporting excellence by giving their full place to leagues, committees and clubs:

  • complete the establishment of a top-level access pyramid scheme, by specifying the missions and allocating the appropriate resources to them;
  • make the systems more relevant and effective access to the top level (youth system in all its components, including the detection and selection processes).

Finally, supporting athletes throughout their career, on the sporting level, but also in health, school or professional and more generally social terms, is an essential complement to purely sporting approaches.

These goals of performance at the highest level rely on a sports building which must also meet more general missions:

  • showcasing victory;
  • construction of an offer in competitions able to satisfy the objectives of the high level, but also the expectations of all practitioners, in order to attract a maximum of licensees to competitive practices adapted (particularly among young people and especially among girls) and to raise the general level of play;
  • maintaining and improving the backbone of tournaments and federal competitions;
  • maintaining the vitality of refereeing while significantly increasing the number of officials and by promoting this commitment from an early age;
  • education programs respect for sports ethics;
  • maintenance of the convivial character of the competitions, founder of Badminton

5.2 Become a major sport

Badminton has the highest growth rate of all French sports. Nevertheless, the development potential is still very large. An important objective, difficult to achieve but not at all unrealistic, is to continue this progression until badminton becomes one of the major disciplines of the country.
The important practice of badminton outside the federal framework (schools, companies, affinity federations, non-licensed) will be used to feed the clubs, in a partnership approach with the actors concerned by these practices and with the help of tools and appropriate arguments. Audiences currently less concerned by the practice (underprivileged neighborhoods, very young people, veterans, etc.) will be approached in a similar way with the help of programs built on successful experiences.
The overall ambition is to increase the number of practitioners of all ages, men and women, in all classes of society, while providing these licensees with the comfort and pleasure of diversified but shared club projects.

5.3 Integrate sustainable development into federal actions

The FFBaD intends to pursue and increase its efforts towards sustainable development, in its various dimensions:

  • awareness-raising, education and training actions, rolled out to territories and clubs
