The Eswatini national badminton team (Swazi: Swatini letisemtsetfweni badminton) represents Eswatini, formerly known as Swaziland, in international badminton team competitions. It is controlled by the Eswatini Badminton Association.[1]

The Eswatini junior badminton team competed in the African Junior Badminton Championships mixed team event in 2007, where the team finished in 7th place.[2]

History

Badminton was first introduced to Eswatini in the early 1990s. At the time, the sport was played in schools in Lobamba, Manzini, Ntfonjeni and Kwaluseni. The small popularity of the sport lead to the formation of the Swaziland Badminton Association (later the Eswatini Badminton Association) in the late 1990s.[3]

Eswatini juniors made their first international appearance in badminton when the national association sent their first few players to compete in the 2007 African Junior Badminton Championships in Gaborone, Botswana.[2] The team finished in 7th after being eliminated in the group stages.[4]

As of 2022, the national team has been inactive and have not competed in any tournaments since 2007.[5][6][7][8]
