The BEC Summer School is the longest running development project within Badminton Europe and now our Member Associations will get the chance to bid for the event at any time.

All of Badminton Europe’s 52 Member Associations have the opportunity of hosting the BEC Summer School – allocation being made based on the submitted bid. 


The Summer School is a combination of a training camp for the best U17 players in Europe and a Coach Education course. The Summer School is held every year in the month of July. Organizing a BEC Summer School can provide many benefits to the host Member Association. 

Examples of these may include:
  • Increased awareness of badminton in the local community.
  • Opportunities for local organizers to gain knowledge and experience from BEC staff.
  • Opportunities for local organizers to meet members of the BEC Board.
  • Sharing knowledge and gaining experience in player development strategies.
  • Developing Coach Education in the country.

Badminton Europe gives its Member Associations the opportunity to bid for a BEC Summer School at any time it is of interest and convenience for the respective Member Association. And it will be possible to bid for the BEC Summer School for several years/times in a row.

A bid will be accepted by the BEC Board of Directors provided that the bid fulfills the organisational criteria. Allocation of the BEC Summer School will be approved by the BEC Board at its earliest convenience, based on the recommendation of the Sport for All Commission.
