The Sudan national badminton team (ar|فريق كرة الريشة الوطني لجمهورية السودان) represents Sudan in international badminton team competitions.[1] It is controlled by the Sudan Badminton Federation, the national governing body for Sudanese badminton. The Sudanese team is affiliated with the Sudan Olympic Committee and the Badminton Confederation of Africa.[2]
Badminton has been played in Sudan since 1999. The sport was then played by a small Malaysian diaspora in Sudan. In 2003 the Sudan Badminton Federation was established and the national team was formed.[3] The national association sent its first few players for the 2007 Pan Arab Games.
Badminton has struggled to gain popularity in Sudan in the 2010s due to the lack of competition. In 2020, the Republic Badminton Championship were in El-Obeid to increase competition in Sudanese badminton. Intercity badminton clubs in Sudan including Al-Abyad and Al-Jarif Al-Khartoum competed in the championships.[4]
The Sudanese men's debuted in the 2007 Pan Arab Games. The team lost 3–0 to Algeria and Egypt in the round robin event. They then lost 2–1 to Bahrain and finished in 6th place.
The Sudanese women's team first competed in the 2007 Pan Arab Games. The team lost 3–0 to Syria in their first match. They then achieved a surprising win when they defeated the Iraqi team 2–1 to earn themselves a bronze medal finish. Doubles pair Munira Abkar and Susan Abdullah managed to turn the tie around when they defeated Etihad Kamel and Ola Sabri 21–18, 21–14.[5]
