Gaya: Lord Buddha Badminton Academy, Bihar first state of the art private badminton academy, began its operation with hosting the month-long intensive coaching camp for Bihar’s top-notch badminton players belonging to all age groups in men’s and women’s section.
The camp was inaugurated by Bihar Badminton Association secretary KN Jaiswal. He said that 41 players are participating in the camp under the eyes of four coaches.
He said the camp has been organised from March 25 to April 24 to groom the players for the nationals as players do not get much time to train when the BAI national tournament calendar starts.
However, the academy will be officially inaugurated on March 27. Former international, Asian Games bronze medallist and Thomas Cup player Pradeep Gandhe will inaugurate the academy.
Lord Buddha Academy is situated on the sprawling Delhi Public School Gaya campus. This is for the first time, Bihar Badminton Association has been organising month-long camp for the badminton players of the state.
