Badminton made its way to Benin in the 2010s when the sport was widely played in schools and in cities such as Cotonou. In 2011, the Beninese Badminton Federation was established and the national team was formed.[2] In 2014, Benin became part of the Shuttle Time program organized by the Badminton World Federation to promote the sport in the country.[3][4] The national team first competed internationally at the 2019 African Badminton Championships.
