History of Gopichand Badminton Academy in Hyderabad

As a player who struggled throughout his career due to injuries, Gopichand was aspired to bring a well-equipped badminton training facility which could bring all essential facilities under one roof.

The Government of Andhra Pradesh's award of 5 acres land to Gopichand on winning the 'All England Open Badminton Championships' in London came at the right time for his aspiration of building an academy. 

In the next few years, Gopichand fine-tuned his ideas for the academy which directed him to approach one of his relatives and an entrepreneur Mr. Nimmagadda Prasad for help. 

With the backing from his wife and his relative Prasad, Gopichand gathered a good sum and went on to mortgage his family domicile, which could make his dream come true of building a world-class badminton training facility.
