History
Badminton was first introduced to Moldova in 1965 when several exchange students from Laos brought the sport to the country which soon attracted the attention of Moldovan professors who then initiated badminton training camps in Moldova. In the 1970s, more badminton schools were opened in Moldova and Moldovan badminton players started to compete in inter-republican badminton championships. The Moldovan badminton team were one of the few Soviet republics that competed in the USSR National Badminton Team Championships.
After the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991, the Moldovan Badminton Federation was later found in 1992 and the Moldovan team started to compete in international team events, one of which being the Balkan Badminton Championships.
