With a budget of 2.1 billion won last year, 62 leagues in the 5 divisions participated, and the size of the business increased to 2.5 billion won this year, and 125 leagues nationwide were selected and operated since May.

The goal is to create an environment where anyone can enjoy badminton happily and healthily through the regular operation of regional leagues, interest in badminton, expansion of the base, and vitalization of clubs.
