Surat's First-Ever Prakash Padukone International Badminton Academy

A new benchmark in professional badminton training has arrived in Surat. Here's what the Prakash Padukone Academy at Oneiros means for the city's players.

Surat's First-Ever Prakash Padukone International Badminton Academy

Prakash Padukone changed Indian badminton — an All England champion who proved world-class players could be built in India. His academy model has produced generations of talent, and Surat now hosts its first-ever branch inside Oneiros.

What 'international standard' actually means

Court quality, ceiling height, lighting, flooring grip, shuttle speed — every variable that shapes a player is engineered to the academy's specifications. It's the difference between playing badminton and training for it.

Discipline, technique, progression

The coaching philosophy is the one that built champions: nail the technique, respect the discipline, progress through structured stages. Beginners learn footwork before smash power; competitive players sharpen match temperament.

Both Oneiros Katargam and Oneiros Adajan host the academy. Book a court or ask our concierge about coaching batches — the fastest way in is the enquiry form.
