French badminton is setting a sort of record among Olympic disciplines. Its federation (FFBaD) saw its numbers increase this season for the… 36th consecutive year. Unique. It has just passed the milestone of 182.000 licensees. Created in 1979, the FFBaD had 70.000 members in 2000, 145.000 in 2010, and therefore 182.000 today, for a total of 1974 clubs.
