The Azerbaijan national badminton team (Azerbaijani: Badminton üzrə Azərbaycan milli komandası) represents Azerbaijan in international badminton team competitions.[1] The national team was formed in 1964 after badminton was introduced in Azerbaijan by the Soviets and after the formation of the Azerbaijan Republic Badminton Federation.

The Azerbaijani men's and women's team debuted in the European Men's and Women's Team Badminton Championships in 2018. Both teams later participated in the next edition.

Azerbaijan made its Olympic badminton debut at the 2020 Summer Olympics when player Ade Resky Dwicahyo would represent the country in the men's singles event.

History

[edit]

Badminton in Azerbaijan began to develop in the 1960s. Before Azerbaijan gained independence, it once hosted the USSR National Badminton Team Championships in 1974 and often competed at the national team championships.[2][3] The Azerbaijan team first started to compete internationally at the 1998 Thomas & Uber Cup qualifiers.

Men's team

[edit]

Azerbaijan first took part in qualifying for the 1998 Thomas Cup. The team had a rough debut as they lost all their matches to Poland, Israel, Armenia and South Africa in the group stage tie.[4]

The men's team made their first two appearances at the European Men's Team Championships in 2018 and 2020. The team were eliminated in the group stages.[5]

Women's team

[edit]

The women's team first competed in the 1998 Uber Cup qualifiers.[6] The team failed to qualify after losing all their matches to Ireland, Spain and Portugal in the group stage.[6]
