PRESIDENT’S
REMARKS
This year has been a challenging one as we continue to

navigate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our
sport and its participants. Despite these challenges,
I am proud to say that we were able to organise
tournaments that were a world-class showcase of our
sport.
Our organisation has always prioritised the safety
and well-being of our athletes and officials. Therefore,
we took great care in ensuring that our events
were conducted in the safest possible manner. The
international tournaments organised were a testament
to our organisation’s commitment to promoting the
sport of badminton in Africa. We provided our athletes
and officials with the best possible facilities, including
top-notch accommodations and training facilities.
This ensured that they were able to perform at their
best and showcase their skills to the world.
In addition to our international tournaments, we
also continued to focus on coach education and
development. Our coach education programs have
always been a key component of our organisation’s
strategy to promote the growth and development of
badminton in Africa. We were pleased to see a great
response to our programs this year, and we remain
committed to offering more opportunities for coach
development in the future.
We were also proud to see that our Shuttle Time
program continued to be a success in 2022. This
program has been instrumental in introducing
badminton to children in Africa and promoting
the sport’s values of respect, teamwork, and
sportsmanship. We are pleased to report that the
program’s continuity has been maintained and will
continue to play an essential role in the development
of badminton in Africa.
In conclusion, I would like to express my appreciation
to all those involved in the successful organisation
of our international tournaments in 2022. We
recognise that there may be challenges ahead, but
Michel T.BAU we remain committed to promoting the growth and
President,
development of badminton in Africa. We look forward
Badminton Confederation Africa
to organise more world-class events and continuing
to showcase our abilities to the world.
God Bless BCA.

FOREHAND
As I sit down to write this foreword for the BCA Annual

Report, my heart is filled with a mix of emotions. On
the one hand, I feel a great sense of pride in all that we
have accomplished over the past five years. On the other
hand, I am filled with a sense of sadness and nostalgia, as
this will be my final foreword as BCA Secretary General.
It has been an honour and a privilege to serve in this
role for the past years. When I first took on this position, I
knew that I had big shoes to fill. But I also knew that I was
joining an organisation with a rich history and a bright
future.
Over the past five years, we have accomplished so much
as an organisation. We have continued to build on the
successes of our predecessors, expanding our reach
and impact across the continent. We have launched
new initiatives and programs, such as our governance
structure with a new Constitution, term limits for key
office bearers, independent judicial panel, fully elected
athletes commission with the Chair being a full Council
member, active committees and commissions with
regular meetings and term of reference, increased
transparency and accountability and finally alignment
with the BWF Constitution.
We have also faced our fair share of challenges over the
past five years. The COVID-19 pandemic has tested us in
ways that we never could have imagined. But through it
all, we have remained committed to our mission and our
values. We have adapted and evolved, finding new ways
to connect and support our members.
As I look back on my time as BCA Secretary General, I
am filled with gratitude for all of the people who have
supported me along the way. I am grateful to our
members, who have inspired me with their passion and
dedication. I am grateful to our staff, who have worked
tirelessly to make our programs and initiatives a success.
And I am grateful to our partners and supporters, who
have believed in us and invested in our work.
As I prepare to step down from my role as BCA Secretary
General, I do so with a sense of optimism for the future of
our organization and our continent. I know that the BCA
will continue to be a force for positive change in Africa,
Sahir EDOO and I am excited to see all of the amazing things that the
Secretary General, organization will achieve in the years to come.
In closing, I want to wish all of our members, partners,
and supporters all the best in 2023. May this year be filled
with hope, joy, and prosperity for all of us.
God bless Africa!

FOREHAND
Dear Members of the Badminton Confederation of Africa,

It is with great pleasure that I present to you the Annual
Report for the year 2022 as the newly appointed CEO of
the Badminton Confederation of Africa (BCA). As you are
all aware, I took on this role in January 2023, and I am
enthusiastic about the path that lies ahead.
As we reflect on the past year, 2022 has been a year
of changes for the BCA. We bid farewell to our former
Secretary General, Sahir Edoo, who left to work for the
BWF. His departure marked the end of an era and the
beginning of a new one. However, we are proud to
continue the work that he started and build on the
legacy he left behind.
Despite the challenges posed by the global pandemic,
the BCA successfully organised fifteen international
tournaments in 2022. The success of these tournaments
was a testament to the resilience of our member
associations, players, and technical officials. I commend
everyone who worked tirelessly to ensure that these
tournaments were a success.
The launch of the Road to Paris program during the
All-Africa Championship in Egypt was a significant
milestone for the BCA. This program aims to develop the
skills of African players and coaches, with the ultimate
goal of qualifying for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. I am
pleased to report that the program is well underway, and
we look forward to seeing the progress of our players
and coaches.
The continuous support of our member associations
has been instrumental in our success, and I thank them
for their unwavering commitment to the development
of badminton in Africa. Furthermore, the increasing
number of technical officials is bringing added value to
our tournaments, and their fulfillment is a great success
for the BCA.
As we look to the future, I am committed to bringing
about a significant turnaround for the BCA. We will work
tirelessly to ensure that badminton in Africa is successful.
I am excited about the opportunities that lie ahead, and
I look forward to working with all of you to achieve our
shared goals.
Jeff SHIGOLI
Thank you.
Chief Executive Officer,

EVENTS REPORT
● INTRO
World class delivery and presentation of BCA events were the key objectives driving the Confederation’s
1 event implementation in 2022. With the outgoing pandemic and most MAs slowly resuming normal
activities, BCA’s aim in 2022 was to:
a. Support host organisers to effectively organised its major events.
b. Provide support to participating countries.
c. Work on the best and safest way possible to host events during and after the pandemic.
d. Provide world class services to athletes and officials.
e. Showcase African badminton as a world class presentation event.

The Lagos International cancellation has raised some concerns, especially as it was done very close to the
tournament dates. Many participating countries had already incurred expenses, including travel and
accommodation fees and have made complaints to BWF concordantly. BCA’s Events Committee, through the
SG, has been actively working with the MA in order to address the issues and conditions that will need to be
met by the MA in view of the 2023 edition, which will take place during the Olympic Qualifying Period for Paris
2024.

2028 to increase the number of Referees in Africa. 11
Participants from 7 countries were supported by BCA
and the participants were allocated duties during the 2
championships, the All Africa Under 19 and the All Africa
School Championships.
Going forward, BCA will strive to appoint Referee

2 Assessors in major tournaments in order to work
on improving the current BCA Referees pool and, as well,
work on making sure the referees appointed as Deputy
Referees are mentored and followed as closely as possible.
The BCA TOC held regular meetings online and the

3 BCA TOs database was updated. Decision making,
at the Commission level, is democratic and inclusive. The
Commission has also been communicating with all BCA
TOs via email, WhatsApp and other platforms.
The BWF has designed and published quite a few

4 resources, including manuals for Umpires, Referees,
Line Judges and organisers. There are also several videos
online for TOs. All these resources are available in English
and French and are available on the BWF Website.
The Line Judge workforce was not forgotten with

5 online training held at different levels, namely:
national, continental, and international. With the Covid-19
pandemic causing many tournaments to be cancelled and
many TOs not being able to travel internationally, many
Line Judges appointments to tournaments could not take
place as usual and, with BWF’s recommendation that the
current pool of Line Judges can be renewed, the BCATOC
has conducted a selection process and has worked on
nominations for 2023-2026..

Below is the graphic which shows the progression of the tutors trained since 2012. Through
this graphic, we noticed that no more tutors were trained. BCA started to work on the existing
tutors to make them active and very involved in their Association Shuttle Time activities.
As most of the trained tutors are not active, BCA advised the MAs to assign more than one tutor
for any Shuttle Time Teachers Course they deliver locally.
One (1) Shuttle Time Teachers Course has been organised in Namibia with the participation of
16 Teachers to prepare the country to launch the Shuttle Time programme.

39
This year, there was also a high increase in MAs organising Shuttle Time Teachers
Course. In total forty-seven (47) Shuttle Time courses were organised in eighteen (18)
MAs. These countries are: Botswana, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Comoros, DR Congo,
Ethiopia, Ivory Coast, Lesotho, Madagascar, Namibia, Niger, Reunion, Senegal, South
Africa, Tunisia, Togo, Zambia and Zimbabwe.

this graphic, we noticed that no more tutors were trained. BCA started to work on the existing
tutors to make them active and very involved in their Association Shuttle Time activities.
The chart above shows the progression of teachers trained from 2012 till 2022. After the highest
increase of teachers trained in 2017, we have observed a decrease of teachers trained from
2018 to 2020 (due to covid pandemic in 2020). But in the second part of 2021 we will have an
increase of the number of teachers trained due to the resumption of sport activities. Compared
to 2021, more teachers were trained in 2022.

MARKETING &
COMMUNICATION
The year 2022 was a remarkable year for the Badminton

Confederation of Africa (BCA) as the marketing scene remained
vibrant throughout the year. The BCA achieved several milestones
in various departments, including social media, live events
coverage, and BCA TV.
Social media played a crucial role in the BCA’s marketing strategy,

with the association’s social media platforms experiencing
significant growth in terms of followers and engagement. The
BCA’s social media team worked tirelessly to create engaging
content, including live match updates, commentary, match
highlights, and behind-the-scenes footage, which helped to
increase fan engagement and participation.
The live events coverage department also made significant strides

in 2022, with the BCA producing high-quality live streams of all
major events. The live streams were accessible to fans worldwide,
and the BCA’s partnership with various streaming platforms
helped to increase the reach of the events.
The BCA TV department also made significant progress in 2022,

with the association launching a dedicated TV channel that
focused on all things badminton in Africa. The channel featured
highlights, interviews, and documentaries, and it helped to
increase the visibility and popularity of badminton in the region.
In addition to these achievements, the Uganda Badminton

Association (UBA) also led other Member Associations in breaking
the barrier of getting record-breaking sponsors for the 2022 All
Africa Senior Championships. The UBA marketing team worked
tirelessly to secure sponsorship deals with several high-profile
companies, and this helped to increase the profile and prestige
of the event.
In conclusion, the BCA’s marketing team achieved several

milestones in 2022, and their efforts helped to increase the
popularity and visibility of badminton in Africa. With the
continued support of fans, sponsors, and stakeholders, the BCA is
well-positioned to continue making progress and achieving even
greater success in the years to come.
The report below highlights the key achievements and

contributions towards the success of the BCA.

ADMINISTRATION
AND REMUNERATION
COMMITTEE
INTRODUCTION
The BCA Administration and Remuneration Committee played
a significant role in ensuring the smooth administration of
the organisation over the past year. The committee worked
closely with the council to develop and implement policies and
procedures that ensure that the organisation operates in an
ethical, transparent, and accountable manner.
With the growing staff, the committee recognised the need to
develop a staff handbook to effectively plan and manage the
human resource of the organisation. Additionally, the committee
developed terms of reference for the BCA Athletes Commission to
better serve the players who are at the centre of the organisation.
This report highlights the key achievements and contributions of
the committee towards the success of the organisation.
STAFF HANDBOOK
The BCA Administration and Remuneration Committee recognised
that with the growing number of staff in the organisation, it
was important to develop a comprehensive staff handbook to
guide and manage the human resource of the organisation. The
committee worked tirelessly to develop a staff handbook that
covered all aspects of employment, including employee benefits,
leave policies, performance management, and code of conduct,
among others. The handbook was adopted by the council and has
been instrumental in ensuring that employees are well informed
about their rights, responsibilities, and expectations.
ATHLETES COMMISSION TERMS OF REFERENCE

The BCA Athletes Commission plays a crucial role in representing
the interests of the players who are at the center of the organisation.
The committee recognised the need to develop clear terms of
reference for the commission to guide their operations effectively.
The terms of reference were developed after consultations
with the commission members and were designed to ensure
that the commission had a clear understanding of their roles,
responsibilities, and expectations. The commission has since
been able to function more effectively and has been instrumental
in ensuring that the players’ interests are well represented.

60
CONCLUSION
In conclusion, the BCA Administration and Remuneration
Committee has played a crucial role in ensuring the smooth
administration of the organisation. The committee’s efforts in
developing a staff handbook, terms of reference for the Athletes
Commission, and the review and development of key policies
and procedures have been instrumental in ensuring that the
organisation operates effectively, transparently, and accountably.
The committee’s contribution has been invaluable, and we
commend them for their hard work and dedication to the success
of the organisation.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
Staff
1 In 2022, BCA recruited Faadil SAYED for the post of Events
& IT Manager as per CCHR plan. Plans are underway for the
recruitment of a Communication & Administration Officer.
2 After more than 9 years of service to the Confederation, our
long serving Secretary General Mr. S. Edoo resigned and joined
the BWF as a Head of Development Projects. His contribution to
the BCA was instrumental throughout the past years.
3 After consultation, the BCA council resolved to restructure its
administrative organogram by hiring a Chief Executive Officer
(CEO) and Head of Operation (HOO) to replace the office of the
Secretary General.
3 The anticipated staff handbook, meant to delineate all staff
policies and regulations, was approved and adopted by the
Council.
BCA OFFICE REGISTRATION

1 The registration process of the BCA Office in Mauritius is still
ongoing. The BWF through its council approved the formation of
the BCA Foundation to act as an intermediary in the registration
of Mauritius until proper regulations are enacted to be properly
registered as a confederation.
2 With the registration of the office, the BCA would benefit from
the following:
i As a non-profit organisation, BCA will be exempted from Taxes.
ii No duties and taxes for equipment imported by BCA for

distribution in Africa.
iii Facilities for work permit and residence permit for staff.
iv Facilities to grant visa on arrival for participants in BCA
activities.
v Facilities from the Government for the hosting of Major Events.

62
FINANCE
1 As the COVID-19 pandemic eased, BCA was able to deliver more

activities in comparison to 2021. The busy events and activities
schedule for BCA in 2022 translated into full utilisation of funding
received for the year. The innovative approaches that were
employed by the BCA Secretariat which included online delivery
of courses and meetings as well as hosting of several events and
activities back-to-back in the different hosting countries - helped
to reduce some travel and events costs while at the same time
maximising impact of the various activities and events.
2 The return to normal was accelerated. However, the Finance
Committee in close cooperation with the Secretariat remained
resolute in their commitment to monitoring the financial
management of BCA to ensure that efficiency in the use of BCA’s
financial resources continued despite the volatile and dynamic
environment coming out of the pandemic. While BCA’s strategy
remained clear – adaptation was key to the execution and delivery
of the activities and resources attached to all of them.
3 Some activities which had been postponed in 2021 for example
the BCA Administration Course were held in 2022. However, the
increases in costs especially around travel as normalcy returned
were notable with increased costs for such events than had been
anticipated at the end of 2021. On a positive note, there was also
a decrease in costs related to COVID-19 including quarantine,
testing etc.

Executive Boards' Responsibilities and Approval
The bca council is required by the Companies Act of South Africa to maintain adequate accounting records and is responsible
for the content and integrity of the annual financial statements and related financial information included in this report. It is its
responsibility to ensure that the annual financial statements satisfy the financial reporting standards with regards to form and
content and present fairly the statement of financial position, results of operations and business of the BCA, and explain the
transactions and financial position of the business of the BCA at the end of the financial year. The annual financial statements
are based upon appropriate accounting policies consistently applied throughout the BCA and supported by reasonable and
prudent judgements and estimates.
The bca council acknowledges that it is ultimately responsible for the system of internal financial control established by the
BCA and places considerable importance on maintaining a strong control environment. To enable the bca council to meet these
responsibilities, the bca council sets standards for internal control aimed at reducing the risk of error or loss in a cost effective
manner. The standards include the proper delegation of responsibilities within a clearly defined framework, effective
accounting procedures and adequate segregation of duties to ensure an acceptable level of risk. These controls are monitored
throughout the BCA and all employees are required to maintain the highest ethical standards in ensuring the BCA'S business is
conducted in a manner that in all reasonable circumstances is above reproach.
The focus of risk management in the BCA is on identifying, assessing, managing and monitoring all known forms of risk across
the BCA. While operating risk cannot be fully eliminated, the BCA endeavours to minimise it by ensuring that appropriate
infrastructure, controls, systems and ethical behaviour are applied and managed within predetermined procedures and
constraints.
The bca council is of the opinion, based on the information and explanations given by management, that the system of internal
control provides reasonable assurance that the financial records may be relied on for the preparation of the annual financial
statements. However, any system of internal financial control can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance against
material misstatement or loss. The going-concern basis has been adopted in preparing the financial statements. Based on
forecasts and available cash resources the bca council has no reason to believe that the BCA will not be a going concern in the
foreseeable future. The annual financial statements support the viability of the BCA.
The annual financial statements set out on pages 7 to 20, and the supplementary information set out on page 21 which have
been prepared on the going concern basis, were approved by the bca council and were signed on 30 April 2022 on its behalf by:
Chipo Zumburani Tukebana Bau

Management's Report
The BCA COUNCIL presents its report for the year ended 31 December 2022.
1. Review of activities
Main business and operations

The principal activity of the BCA is a Continental Sport's Governing Body. There were no major changes herein during the year.
The operating results and statement of financial position of the BCA are fully set out in the attached financial statements and
do not in our opinion require any further comment.
2. Going concern
The annual financial statements have been prepared on the basis of accounting policies applicable to a going concern. This
basis presumes that funds will be available to finance future operations and that the realisation of assets and settlement of
liabilities, contingent obligations and commitments will occur in the ordinary course of business.
The BCA COUNCIL believes that the BCA has adequate financial resources to continue in operation for the foreseeable future
and accordingly the annual financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.
The BCA COUNCIL has satisfied itself that the BCA is in a sound financial position and that it has access to sufficient funding to
meet its foreseeable cash requirements.
The BCA COUNCIL is not aware of any new material changes that may adversely impact the BCA. The BCA COUNCIL is also not
aware of any material non-compliance with statutory or regulatory requirements or of any pending changes to legislation
which may affect the BCA.
The annual financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, since the BCA COUNCIL has every reason to
believe that the BCA has adequate resources in place to continue in operation for the foreseeable future.
3. Events after reporting date

The BCA COUNCIL is not aware of any matter or circumstance arising since the end of the financial year to the date of this
report that could have a material effect on the financial position of the BCA.

Accounting Policies
1. General information
Badminton Confederation Africa is a non-profit organisation.
2. Basis of preparation and summary of significant accounting policies
The financial statements of Badminton Confederation Africa have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial
Reporting Standard for Small and Medium-sized Entities and the Companies Act of South Africa. The financial statements have
been prepared under the historical cost convention. They are presented in United States Dollars.
The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these annual financial statements are set out below. These
policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.
2.1 Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment is stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment
losses. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition
necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by the bca council.
The BCA adds to the carrying amount of an item of property, plant and equipment the cost of replacing parts of such an item
when that cost is incurred if the replacement part is expected to provide incremental future benefits to the BCA. The carrying
amount of the replaced part is derecognised. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to surplus or deficit during the
period in which they are incurred.
Asset class Useful life / depreciation rate

Fixtures and fittings 6 Years
Office equipment 4 Years
Computer equipment 4 Years
2.2 Financial instruments
Trade and other receivables

Trade receivables are recognised initially at the transaction price. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the
effective interest method, less provision for impairment. A provision for impairment of trade receivables is established when
there is objective evidence that the BCA will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the
receivables.
Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, demand deposits and other short-term highly liquid investments with original
maturities of three months or less. Bank overdrafts are shown in current liabilities on the statement of financial position.
Trade and other payables

Trade payables are recognised initially at the transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the
effective interest method.

76

Accounting Policies
Basis of preparation and summary of significant accounting policies continued...

2.3 Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Cost is determined using
the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. The cost of finished goods and work in progress comprises packaging costs, raw materials,
direct labour, other direct costs and related production overheads (based on normal operating capacity). At each reporting
date, inventories are assessed for impairment. If inventory is impaired, the carrying amount is reduced to its selling price less
costs to complete and sell; the impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss.
2.4 Provisions
Provisions are measured at the present value of the amount expected to be required to settle the obligation using a pre-tax
rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the obligation. The increase
in the provision due to passage of time is recognised as interest expense.
2.5 Revenue
Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Revenue is shown net of value-added tax,
returns, rebates and discounts.
When the outcome of a transaction involving the rendering of services can be estimated reliably, revenue associated with the
transaction is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the transaction at the end of the reporting period. The
outcome of a transaction can be estimated reliably when all the following conditions are satisfied:
• the amount of revenue can be measured reliably; and
• it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the entity; and
• the stage of completion of the transaction at the end of the reporting period can be measured reliably; and
• the costs incurred for the transaction and the costs to complete the transaction can be measured reliably.
When the outcome of transactions involving the rendering of services cannot be estimated reliably, revenue is recognised only
to the extent of the expenses recognised that are recoverable.
Interest income is recognised using the effective interest method.
2.6 BWF Grants
Grants from the Badminton World Federation are recognised at their fair value in profit or loss where there is a reasonable
assurance that the grant will be received and the BCA has complied with all attached conditions. Grants received where the
BCA has yet to comply with all attached conditions are recognised as a liability (and included in deferred income within trade
and other payables) and released to income when all attached conditions have been complied with. Badminton World
Federation grants received are included in 'other income' in profit or loss.
3. Critical accounting estimates and judgements
Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including
expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
No significant estimates and adjustments have been applied in the preparation of these financial statements.
