History
Badminton was introduced to Georgia in the early 1960s. The spread of this sport was facilitated by the first USSR National Badminton Championships held in Tbilisi in 1963, which was followed by the Georgian National Badminton Championships a year later. In addition to Tbilisi, badminton groups have opened in Kutaisi, Batumi, Sukhumi, Rustavi, Telavi, Gurjaani and Gachiani.[5]
