The Karnataka Badminton Association Junior Badminton Coaching Program is a structured coaching initiative for young badminton players, delivered at KBA's indoor stadium in Bengaluru under the state's official badminton governing body.
Coaching batches are open to children aged 8 to 18 years, with sessions held several days a week within KBA's daily coaching window. Training is overseen by KBA's coaching staff, led by Chief Coach Anup Sridhar, an Olympian and Arjuna Award recipient, and follows a beginner-to-professional progression.
