About JBA

JBA Logo Full

Jones Badminton Academy (JBA) is a brand-new badminton academy launching in Milton Keynes this September. We are bringing high quality, fun and accessible coaching sessions to the next generation of badminton players; targeting children in years 2-6 (ages 6-11).

Our experienced coaching team is formed of some of the top professional players in the country, who are all currently competing on the European and World Tours. Join us and make badminton a joyful part of your child's life!

Our academy is built on 5 values:

1. Inspire through sport

We use badminton to inspire confidence, build character and promote healthy lifestyles from an early age

2. Progress with purpose

Sessions are designed to encourage children to explore new skills and learn through consistent practice; we ensure players leave better than when they arrived – on and off the court.

3. Fun is fundamental

We foster a joyful and encouraging environment where learning is exciting, challenge is encouraged and smiles are guaranteed.

4. Grow for the long game

Players are actively encouraged to be inquisitive about all aspects of badminton, from trying new skills and learning new shots to watching top players from around the world - to attempt, imitate and follow in their footsteps.

5. Everyone belongs

Inclusive, supportive and welcoming – we make every child feel seen, valued and safe.
