The 2000 African Badminton Championships were the continental badminton championships to crown the best players and teams across Africa. The tournament was held at the Bauchi Multi-Purpose Indoor Sports Hall in Bauchi, Nigeria, from 24 to 31 July 2000.[1]
In the team event, South Africa, Mauritius, Seychelles and Nigeria reached the semi-finals.[2] Mauritius won their first ever team title by defeating Nigeria in the final.[3] [4] South Africa defeated Seychelles in the third place play-off.
In May 2000, the Badminton Confederation of Africa awarded Nigeria the rights to host the next African championships at the Bauchi Multi-Purpose Indoor Sports Hall.[5] [6] Originally, 18 countries were supposed to compete in the championships.[7] The participating countries later dropped from 18 to 9 due to the funding issues.[8] [9] In the end, only six countries took part in the tournament.
