Our Ambassadors

Our godmother Pi Hongyan is an extraordinary godmother. She has been there from the beginning of the adventure, has always been incredibly involved alongside Solibad. She is informed of all the association's projects, takes part in all the important decisions, concerning the projects, but also the promotional operations. And she spares no effort to always find ways to raise funds, by calling on her personal contacts.
Each country has one or more ambassadors whose role is to promote the work of the organization in their country and to act as a liaison with the local media and federation. As you will see, these players are among the best in the world, most of them multiple national champions, but also several world champions and Olympic champions, as well as some of the best para-badminton players. Other ambassadors include renowned coaches, national and international officials, referees and umpires.
Many of the ambassadors below (listed here in alphabetical order) have been World Champions, Olympic Champions, French Champions, Disabled or Para Badminton players.
