BWF World Junior Championships:  Following an intense training camp, conducted by the Badminton Association of India (BAI), the Indian contingent has left for the USA where they will be participating in the BWF World Junior Championships 2023, to be held in Spokane, USA from September 25 to October 8.

Spearheaded by the Odisha Open 2022 champion Unnati Hooda and the two-time U-19 All India Junior Ranking champion Ayush Shetty, a strong 16-member squad took part in the BAI’s preparatory camp at the National Centre of Excellence in Guwahati, which is supported by the REC Limited and Sports Authority of India, from September 1 to 20.

“The three-week training camp was aimed at strengthening skills of players and also improving team bonding as they will be competing in the team championship along with individual events. I am confident that this camp has helped players to bond and know each other better. The squad looks very competitive and I hope they will bring glory to the nation. I wish them good luck,” commented Sanjay Mishra, BAI General Secretary.
