His Majesty’s patronage for badminton played a key role in the Kingdom’s progress in the sport.

 

BANGKOK: -- IT IS DIFFICULT to express the incredible sports achievements of Thailand’s beloved King Bhumibol Adulyadej over the 70 years of his reign.


His Majesty the King extolled the benefits of sport to health as well as the enjoyment and discipline that comes from competition. He was also generous with advice, guidance and encouragement for every Thai athlete and sport organisations. He extended his support via royal patronage to the Olympic Committee of Thailand and national sport associations including the Badminton Association of Thailand.

 

His Majesty played a leading role in the Kingdom’s badminton history, both as a lifelong exponent himself and as a supporter and guide for badminton dating back to when he captured the historic BWF President’s Medal in 2012.
