A total of 12 participants from India, England, Spain, Slovenia, Italy, Sweden, Colombia and Venezuela attended the workshop.

There were lots of interesting questions the participants asked, and we were able to show examples for each category. We hope the participants now have a greater understanding of the BWF Classification process to help them identify and classify their new national players.\u201d \u2013 Becky Bailey.<\/p>\n

\u201cThrough my participation in the workshop, I have learned many technical aspects in the medical field with different disabilities and their limitations. Was a very interesting and worthwhile workshop. Thanks for all the explanations about the medical side of the classification. This would encourage me to know more physiotherapy\/medical techniques.\u201d\u00a0 \u2013 Nieves de la Fuente, participant from Spain.<\/p>\n
