Your gift to Badminton BC (BBC) really does have an impact
If you play, or used to play, badminton you know how much it impacted your life in a very positive way. Twenty minutes average per game of heart beating exercise, great camaraderie on and off the court, officiating and coaching skills and an incredible community of friends, who eventually become family.
We are healthier, happier people because we play badminton. We have a broad, tight group of friends who play badminton. We mentor the young ones, we help the injured ones, we show up to volunteer and we love every single minute. Our lives are enriched. Our bodies are strong. Our families are healthier through the power of the sport.
What BBC offers
As stated in our mission, the Badminton BC is committed to provide clear leadership and assist and support the developmental advancement of the sport. Our leadership will span all developmental levels on a province-wide scale, addressing vital organizational issues including revenue stability, increased participation and stronger overall awareness of the role of Badminton BC.
While maintaining the already established high performance badminton sanctioned activities, our services are provided to a much broader population in recreational, grass-roots programs. This needs a shift in resources allocation from an already thin layer of funding.
How BBC gets funded and operates
Your annual membership due contributes around 5% of the total income of the BBC. Badminton BC’s funding is primarily through directed government funds in which there is no guarantee there will be a consistency growth in each year.
We are striving to build capacity to grow badminton in BC. You can help. Share your passion for the sport through a financial or a voluntary contribution. Your donation to badminton in British Columbia will assist in increasing participation in badminton, provide access to courts and coaching and create memories as we continue to play, compete, coach, officiate or simply hang out and enjoy the game.
Your Generosity and Funding Opportunity
Your donation to the Badminton BC Builder Program Project has an immediate and direct impact. This project helps Badminton BC deliver, officials’ courses, provide technical support, build coaching programs and host events, with the ultimate objective of growing the game. Tax receipts will be distributed by the BC Amateur Sport Fund (previously known as The National Sport Trust Fund).
