The Chandigarh Badminton Association honoured players, who have been helping the needy during the lockdown and attending regular practice sessions, at the Sector 38 Sports Complex.

Col Raj Parmar, senior vice-president of the association, and Surinder Mahajan, general secretary, felicitated 16 players. The association also announced starting online training schedules for maintaining the minimum presence of trainees at the complex.

“The aim of imparting at-home training is primarily to keep the players physically fit and technically abreast so as to enable them in achieving the adaptation stage at the earliest,” said Mahajan. More than 400 shuttlers practice at the complex, which is under the UT Sports Department.
