2023 YONEX Canadian Masters Badminton Championships
The Calgary Winter Club is the host venue for the 2023 YONEX Canadian Masters Badminton Championships. This event will run from June 12-17, 2023 and we anticipate over 300 competitors from across Canada, and around the globe. Players range from 30 to 90+ years of age, and travel from countries as far away as Japan, England, Germany, Pakistan, the USA and Peru.
We expect fierce competition throughout the week, and camaraderie thereafter, with several evening social events that further foster relationships and goodwill amongst competitors, keeping them coming back to this sport and annual event. It is a truly unique event that showcases our nation’s best players, and their lifelong commitment to the sport of badminton.
