The “i am badminton” campaign offers a platform for players to express their love and respect for badminton. Players can do this through their commitment to clean and honest play.

This integrity campaign is about players, coaches, technical officials and administrators working together to protect our sport from threats like doping, match fixing, illegal betting and corruption.
