The Togo national badminton team (French: Équipe nationale de badminton du Togo; Ewe: Ẹgbẹ badminton orilẹ-ede Togo) represents Togo in international team competitions. The Togolese Badminton Federation (French: Federation Togolaise de Badminton) controls everything in the national team.
History
Badminton first reached Togo in the late 1990s. Togo was one of the first nations in West Africa to adopt the sport and the first French-speaking African nation to do so. Badminton failed to gain popularity in Togo in the 1990s due to the lack of activities and funding.
In 2012, the Togolese Badminton Federation partnered with the Badminton World Federation and initiated Shuttle Time project to increase the number of badminton players and revitalize the practice of badminton in Togo. The project gave the national team slight success as they were able to send their players to compete internationally at the 2019 African Mixed Team Championships after a long hiatus.
Mixed team
The Togolese mixed team competed in the 2019 African Mixed Team Championships. The team were drawn to Group C with Algeria, Ghana and Ivory Coast. The Togolese team were eliminated in the group stages after losing all their matches in the group stage.
