Background
The 2026 Badminton Asia Team Championships crowned the top male and female national badminton teams in Asia and has also served as the Asian qualification event for the 2026 Thomas & Uber Cup. [2] It is sanctioned by the Badminton World Federation. China and India were the defending champions of the men's and women's categories, respectively. [3] [4]
The competition begins with a group stage: all participating teams are divided into four groups of two or three teams each. Each team plays each other once, with the top two teams advancing to the knockout stage. A match is won by the team that first wins three games. The eight teams that qualify will be drawn and compete in a knockout format until the final. [5]
- Tie-breaker
Team ranking within a group is determined based on the following criteria: number of wins; match difference; game difference; and points difference. If two teams are tied after a criterion is applied, the winner of the match between the two teams will be ranked higher. A draw will be held to determine ranking if there are still teams tied after all criteria are applied. [6]
