Get ready to compete! The big day is fast approaching, and we’re thrilled to welcome you to the tournament. To make sure everything runs smoothly, we’ve put together some essential information about entries, travel, and accommodation.
Let’s dive into the details:
Entries & Deadlines
First things first: all entries must be submitted through the BWF Online Entry System. Remember, the deadline is Tuesday, October 29th at 11:59 PM BWF HQ time (GMT + 8 hours). No late entries will be accepted, so don’t miss out! The draw will be announced on November 19th, 2024, so mark your calendars!
Visa and Travel Arrangements
Traveling from abroad? If you need a visa to enter the UK, please fill out the attached form to request an official letter from Badminton Wales. This will help with your visa application process.
We’ve got your transportation covered! Badminton Wales will provide transport to and from Cardiff Airport via Flightlink. If you need this service, please fill out the Travel Request form by the deadline. Keep in mind that Flightlink is based at Cardiff Airport, so it will take around 30 minutes to reach the Sport Wales National Centre. Any changes to your travel arrangements must be communicated to us promptly, so we can adjust the transfer schedule accordingly.
Looking for alternative transportation options? The National Express bus station is conveniently located near the Sport Wales National Centre. You can find bus schedules and routes on the National Express website.
Getting to the Sport Wales National Centre
Finding the venue is a breeze! The Sport Wales National Centre is a twenty-minute walk from the National Express bus station. If you prefer to drive, it’s a ten-minute drive. To walk there, head straight down Westgate Street, cross the bridge, take a left through Bute Park, and follow the walkway until you reach the Sport Wales National Centre. Don’t worry, you can’t miss it! If you happen to reach the cricket ground, you’ve gone a little too far.
Need a ride? There are several taxi companies operating in Cardiff.
And the best part? There’s free parking available at the Sport Wales National Centre.
