Badminton has a surprisingly long history given its relatively recent introduction onto the Olympic scene
Badminton took its name from Badminton House in Gloucestershire, the home of the Duke of Beaufort, where the sport was played in the last century
Membership of the International Badminton Federation has risen steadily, with a notable increase after badminton's Olympic debut at Barcelona
New competitions are planned including one-off spectaculars and the development of a Super Series to attract greater sponsorship, prize money, and television
The importance of television to a world sport is self-evident as it brings the action, excitement, and explosive power of badminton into homes around the world
The first major badminton event was the Thomas Cup (world men's team championships) in 1948
Since then, the number of world events has increased with the addition of the Uber Cup (ladies' team), World Championships, Sudirman Cup (mixed team), World Juniors, and the World Grand Prix Finals
1996 saw the last of a highly successful invitational event, the World Cup
World Cup
Started in 1981 to provide top players with an opportunity to earn greater levels of prize money
As the World Grand Prix circuit has grown and the prize money has increased it was felt that the World Cup had served its purpose
