Pan American Badminton Championships

The Pan American Badminton Championships is a tournament organized since 1977 by the Badminton Pan America (BPA) to crown the best badminton players in the Americas. The tournament was held every year from 1977 until 1980, then every two years from 1987 until 2007. It is now organized annually, except once every four years when the Pan American Games multi-sports event is held. Badminton has been part of the Pan American Games since 1995. Since then, 2007 was the only year in which both the Pan American Badminton Championships and the Pan American Games were held concurrently. The Pan American Badminton Championships once had a Grand Prix status.
