Handicap: young badminton player Dylan Pedro launches fundraiser for international tournament in Prague

The article covers the story of two young men, Dylan and Basile, who are overcoming their physical disabilities to compete in international para-badminton tournaments. Dylan, who developed a disability due to a brain tumor operation when he was 2 years old, has adapted to playing badminton with his right side affected. He has joined the France Parabad collective and is raising funds to participate in the upcoming international tournament in Prague. Basile, on the other hand, lost his leg in a motorcycle accident at the age of 16 but continues to play badminton with a specialized prosthesis, currently ranking 36th globally in his category.

Numerous Projects

Dylan’s goals include funding specialized training, competing in the European and World Para-Badminton Championships. Both players highlight the importance of support from their community, including colleagues, clubs, and strangers who have contributed to their journey in para-badminton.
