History

Badminton was introduced to Bangladesh in the 1900s by the British. At the time, the sport was only played throughout urban areas.[2] In 1972, the Bangladesh Badminton Federation was formed and the sport started to gain popularity. The national team competed in one of their first international team events at the 2004 South Asian Games.

In 2010, the team competed at the 2010 South Asian Games as host team and finished in third place.[3][4] The team were eliminated semi-finals at the next edition of the South Asian Games in 2016 after losing 3–0 to Sri Lanka.[5]
