KUALA LUMPUR: The next edition of the Thomas and Uber Cup Finals in 2026 will be held in Horsens, Denmark, after the hosting rights were confirmed at the Badminton World Federation (BWF) council meeting on Sunday.
BWF president Poul-Erik Hoyer praised Badminton Denmark and the City of Horsens for their bid, since it will be the second time that Denmark will stage the world team events after Aarhus in 2021.
BWF also announced Guwahati, India as the host city for the World Junior Championships in 2025.
The team and individual events will be held at the Badminton Association of India’s (BAI) National Centre of Excellence in the northeast region of the country.
India last hosted a major event when they organised the world juniors in Pune in 2008. — Bernama
