The Nippon Badminton Association has announced that it will hold the All Japan Championship starting December 25th with 4000 spectators, which is half the capacity of the venue.
Since the tournament was held last year without spectators, it will be held with spectators for the first time in two years.
The Badminton All Japan Championship is a tournament that also serves as a selection for next year's Japan national team members, and will be held from December 25th to 30th at the Musashino Forest Sport Plaza in Chofu City, Tokyo.
The Nippon Badminton Association announced the outline of the tournament, and revealed that it will be held for the first time in two years because the infection situation of the new coronavirus in Japan is settling down.
The maximum number of spectators is 4000, which is 50% of the capacity, although it may increase or decrease depending on the infection situation and changes in the government policy.
In addition, we are in discussions with the national government regarding the participation of Japanese national team players who will participate in the World Championships in Spain until December 19.
