Welcome to BADMINTON MUSEUM OF IRELAND.

Welcome to the latest updates to our website.

The Historical item displays a very fine article on Frank Devlin. This appeared in The Badminton Gazette in 1931. It gives a clear picture of the character of the man. Of course the article precedes Devlin’s extraordinary career as a Coach in many areas of the world such as Canada, U.S.A., Australia, New Zealand and the Far East.

The Gallery item displays an image of Jim Wallace together with a note on his huge contribution to Badminton in the North West.

We are indebted to Bob Colhoun who has donated a copy of “Alpha Badminton Club – The Story So Far”. This gives a huge amount of information on the club spanning the period 1933 to 2018.This will be of considerable benefit to the Museum in extending its information on Ulster Badminton
