Registered Coaches who want to be able to coach players during the YONEX U15/U19 Australian National Individual Championships 2026 held in Melbourne from July 5-11, are required to submit a request for a Coach Accreditation prior to the event.

ONLY coaches who are registered coaches with Badminton Australia and have as a minimum successfully completed the BA Foundation Coaching Course (Online + Face-to-Face Component), are eligible for a Coach Accreditation allowing them to coach at the National Championships.

The above also applies to parents/guardians who wish to coach their own child(ren) during the event.

Coaches who are not registered with BA (you can register HERE, if you have a coach qualification but have not yet registered with BA), will not be approved for an accreditation and will not be allowed to coach during the event.

For any questions regarding this process, please do not hesitate to contact BA at baadmin@badminton.org.au
