Policies and procedures<\/h2>\n

The Policies and Regulations section deals with the Policies that enable us to govern the game \u2013 from selection to equal opportunities to how the sport is played and controlled. The relevant section of the Constitution and its adjoining areas and policies deals with the governing body\u2019s regulatory framework. This works to provide fair and accessible sports throughout the country. Our Articles of Association and membership policies deal with some of our governance processes as the sport\u2019s national governing body. This section contains policies that Ghana Badminton as an organisation abides by. It also contains our internal policies, which set out what our stakeholders and members can expect of us.<\/p>\n
