Andrew Parsons, International Paralympic Committee (IPC) President, said he was confident of the success Bahrain Paralympic Badminton International 2023.
Parsons commended the track record Bahrain has in hosting international key sports events.
Bahrain Paralympic Badminton International 2023, held by Bahrain for the second time, will be on May 17-23. It is organised by Bahrain Paralympic Committee and the Bahrain Badminton and Squash Federation.
Paralympic badminton made a hugely successful debut at the Tokyo 2020 Paralympic Games.
IPC has seen the sport flourish, especially across Asia where Paralympic badminton gets more competitive and entertaining with every passing tournament.
The Paris 2024 Paralympic Games will have 16 Paralympic badminton medal events, two more than at Tokyo 2020, and tournaments like this form an important part of the preparation and qualification for the Paris Games.
