IWF Lifts Suspension Over BBA

BBA was in 2019, slapped with the hefty fine by the badminton world governing body, International Badminton Federation (IWF) for failing to send players for international competitions, a move that left the association debilitated,  and a year away from the international stage.

Following the unsuccessful withdrawal of some of their players from international events, BBA was in the 2018/2019 cycle banned from all BWF events.  After several engagements with the world governing body and full settlements of the imposed penalty, the ban has been lifted giving BBA full member rights and privilege," statements from the BBA reads.
