with the valid credentials.
Priority should be given to members of AIPS, National Sports Associations representatives of international news and photographic
agencies and journalists working for known Badminton specific publications. This is because many members of the media are free
journalists supplying various media outlets and so its is essential that only bona fide journalists and photographers are accredited. The
