Our Vision
The First Ever Foundation is committed to give back to the badminton community and future champions of America on and off the court.
Through the organization we will provide athletes the resources to qualify for the Olympic Games and develop an avenue for our young talent to have the opportunity to be a “student-athlete”; to continue their education in college while pursuing their Badminton dream at the next level. We aim to promote the sport at the highest level by running events, training camps, clinics, and charity tournaments for our Badminton communities. This is the purpose, dream, and mission of this organization and we are excited to make a positive change in our community.
