Badminton de Cuba remakes strategy for new Olympic cycle

This new cycle will allow us to reorder the sports strategy to detect talents both among conventional athletes and in parabadmintonists.

We also want to train more referees at the national and international level to gain privileged positions in Latin America first and on the planet later, the collegiate told Prensa Latina via Facebook.

Charadán, 64, with a degree in English Language and Physical Culture and Sports, received the distinction for the best referee on the Island, awarded by Inder.

In fact, the impartial Cuban added important international positions in 2021, when he was ratified as Head of Refereeing for Latin America, in addition to being elected to the ranks of the collegiate committee of the Ibero-American Badminton Federation.

The Antillean also had an outstanding performance in the international championships in which he participated, although he is no longer seen at the qualification table, or dispensing justice.

According to the prestigious referee, Cuban badminton faced a tough stage and after the extensive stoppage suffered by the pandemic, a slow process of recovery or return to sports facilities began.

Despite this, we maintained constant communication with those responsible for rules and arbitration throughout the country, at the international level we work with our colleagues in a virtual way and we carry out various improvement actions such as seminars, workshops and courses, he said.

According to the university professor, the confinement imposed by Covid-19 prevented the completion of the competitive program suspended since March 2020.

Fortunately, in March 2021, competitive activity was resumed and Cuba was able to participate in a para-badminton tournament held in Dubai, which awarded tickets to the Tokyo 2020 Paralympic Games.

However, the most shocking thing for me was participating in the Paralympic, in which he acquired a great experience from a professional point of view.

The Cuban referee confessed that the Japanese event was an extremely atypical event, with no public presence in most of the facilities, but with the good fortune of being able to attend elementary school children near the facility.

Cuba did not have any presence in either of the two Japanese competitions, despite having an athlete who almost had a chance to achieve his quota, Oslenis Guerrero.

I think we owe even more to badminton on the island and we need to find a way to increase tournaments in all categories, as university sports have been doing, he stressed.
