Southeast Asian Badminton Championships

The Southeast Asian Badminton Championships are a series of badminton tournaments organized by the Badminton Asia governing body and formerly the ASEAN Schools Sports Council to crown the best senior and junior badminton players in Southeast Asia.

History

In June 1953, the Badminton Association of Malaya announced that the association would be organizing a badminton tournament for Southeast Asian countries, namely Indonesia, Malaya, the Philippines, Singapore and Thailand with India, Hong Kong and Japan as invitees.[1] The tournament was scheduled to be held in April 1957 but was never finalized.[2] In 1966, the Republic of Vietnam Badminton Federation organized the first Southeast Asian badminton team tournament in Saigon with the Philippines winning the men's team division and Cambodia winning the women's team division.[3][4]
