Due to the rapid spread of COVID -19 disease throughout the world and taking into recommendations from National, Provincial and Local Public Health Agencies, Badminton Canada has decided to postpone Canadian International Challenge 2020. The event was to take place in Fort McMurray from March 31st to April 5, 2020. The new date of the Canadian International Challenge will be announce in the coming months.

 

Badminton Canada will be refunding all entry fees paid to date. We will be working with our accommodation group to ensure that participants recover as much of their hotel booking fees as possible. As this is a Force Majeure we unfortunately cannot take on the responsibility of any expenses incurred due to flight changes/cancellations.

 

This decision, was difficult, but necessary for all parties. The well-being and health of the players, coaches, officials and volunteers as well as the local community is always our top priority.

 

Kind regards

 

Joe Morissette

Executive Director / Directeur général
