Badminton: Age fraud in focus at All India Sub-Junior Ranking Tournament

Hindustan Times  

The Age Fraud Committee of the Badminton Association of India has written to the leadership of the National Sports Federation, intimating them about purported cases of age fraud being committed at the All India Sub-Junior Ranking Tournament being held from June 28 to July 4 in Mohali. BAI's Age Fraud Committee has informed the leadership of NSF about purported age fraud cases committed at the All India Sub-Junior Ranking Tournament. A member of the Age Fraud Committee wrote the letter, also accessed by Hindustan Times, to the BAI president, secretary general, chairman and convenor of the panel and organising secretary and tournament referee of the week-long event that close to 22 percent of the players are being allowed to participate by producing a medical certificate. “The BAI is requested to take urgent action in this matter as participation of overage players gives rise to frustration among honest players and parents leading to disillusionment with the entire system, besides giving negative image to BAI.” Of the 396 players under scrutiny, 43 out of the 232 male players and 21 out of the 164 females are participating with medical certificates.
