This summer, we are thrilled to welcome you to the annual Smashtravel Camp in Sweden, hosted for the seventh consecutive year, together with our first international badminton tournament, Smashtravel Hanekyu Open, open to U13–U19 junior categories as well as adult and senior players who wish to experience a tournament combined with a training camp.

Smashtravel Camp is an Asian-inspired, high-performance badminton camp, primarily for competitive players aged 13–19 (exceptions may be made). In addition, and for the first time in Sweden, we now welcome competitive adult and senior players to a camp taking place shortly after the junior camp and the tournament.

To make the adult and senior camp possible, a minimum of 25 participants is required. If you are interested in joining, we encourage you to bring your doubles or training partner and help spread the word within your badminton club or community. We kindly advise participants not to book train or flight tickets until the minimum number of participants has been confirmed.

Over the years, Smashtravel Camp has brought together coaches and players from a wide range of countries, including Sweden, Norway, Denmark, England, Germany, France, Scotland, Belgium, India, Indonesia, Japan, and many more. In total, players from more than 30 different nations have participated, creating a truly international training environment and making the camp a highlight of the year for us.

While the camp will be packed with fun and social activities, the main focus is our training sessions. Each camp includes 10 badminton training sessions over 5 days, making it essential to arrive physically prepared and mentally ready. Players who train regularly and take responsibility for their nutrition, recovery, and sleep will thrive in this environment.

This year, we want to create something special by combining high-performance training with Smashtravel Hanekyu Open, giving all of you the opportunity to apply your training in an international competition setting. While participation is optional, we whole-heartedly recommend this for players seeking the full experience.

As usual, players from all nations are warmly welcome to join us. Each camp is limited to 54 players, and places are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis. We strongly encourage early registration, as last year’s camp filled up very quickly!

Last but not least, as this year marks a very special edition of Smashtravel Camp and our very first international tournament, organized together with the Japanese badminton camp organizer Hanekyu, we are offering a generous 10% “welcome back” discount to all players who have previously participated in any Smashtravel Camp, whether in Europe or Asia.

We look forward to welcoming you to Smashtravel Camp & Smashtravel Hanekyu Open this summer! 🏸
