The Edmonton District Badminton Association (EDBA) is a registered, non-profit organization. The EDBA is a member of Badminton Alberta, the provincial governing body for badminton in Alberta.
The EDBA acts as the central body for organizing and promoting badminton in Zone 6 of Alberta, which encompasses Edmonton and its greater area. For more information about the EDBA, please see About Us.
The EDBA provides many valuable programs and services to the badminton community in Edmonton. This includes coach development, junior and adult badminton training, tournament hosting, and a badminton club subsidy program to help lower the cost of playing badminton within the community.
