Media Portal for 2025
Media Accreditation
The media accreditation portal is now open for journalists and media professionals eager to cover the Ghana Badminton Grand Slam, a historic and celebrated event in the world of badminton, proudly showcasing Ghana’s rich sporting legacy since its inception in 1979. As a trailblazer in African badminton, this tournament has consistently set the standard for excellence, blending tradition with innovation, and the portal provides an opportunity for media to capture this prestigious event throughout the 2025 season.
The media accreditation is required by anyone conducting onsite media coverage of the event in the form of storytelling, news reporting, photography, videography, broadcasting, etc. This includes media professionals such as:
Written press (news agencies, magazines, newspapers, online media)
Photographers
Non-Rights-Holding Broadcasters (the TV and radio companies who are engaged in producing video news highlights)
Media departments of institutions (such as sports federations, sports clubs, venues, host cities, universities, partners)
Content creators/Bloggers
Please note that Rights-Holding Broadcasters will need to apply through a separate form to obtain media accreditation.
Start of media accreditation: 31 May 2025
End of media accreditation: 30 June 2025
The portal will operate in two distinct periods, with a brief closure in between to allow the organizing team sufficient time to process applications—please note that no applications can be submitted during this closure.
To ensure a smooth application process, media personnel are strongly advised to review the attached application requirements document thoroughly before starting.
