Demba Ndiaye to Represent Senegal at African Games as Badminton Champion

Demba Ndiaye, Senegal badminton champion in the junior category, will have the honor of representing Senegal at the next African Games, scheduled for March 3 to 23, 2024 in Accra, Ghana. This was announced by Abdoulaye Keita, president of the Babacar Cobar Ndao badminton club in Kaffrine.

The 15-year-old young sportsman is a second-year student at the Babacar Cobar Ndao high school in Kaffrine, where he began his sporting career in 2021 following the introduction of badminton in this school. Abdoulaye Keita highlighted the notable progress of this discipline in Kaffrine and the rest of Senegal.

He also called on the authorities to support the development of badminton, which is facing various difficulties in Kaffrine, including the lack of appropriate resources and equipment. Despite these obstacles, the Babacar Cobar Ndao badminton club in Kaffrine has around thirty residents.

Badminton, similar to tennis but played indoors with a net and shuttlecocks, is booming in Senegal, and Demba Ndiaye intends to represent his region and his country with dignity during the African Games in Accra.
