The Badminton Asia is the governing body of badminton in Asia. It is one of the 5 continental bodies under the flag of the Badminton World Federation (BWF). The confederation was established in 1959, headquartered in Petaling Jaya, Malaysia. It aims to maintain Asia as the benchmark for world badminton in many years to come. It now has 41 member states.[1]

It had decided in the Annual General Meeting on July 16, 2006 that the confederation name was changed from Asian Badminton Confederation (ABC) to Badminton Asia Confederation (BAC).[2]

The recently-held Badminton Asia Extraordinary General Meeting October 16, 2015 in Kuwait which unveils the new logo for the Confederation, and Badminton Asia Confederation (BAC) will now be known as Badminton Asia as it charts the new era and a more dynamic Confederation which recognises all members as of equal importance and every member has a role to play for Asia.
