Our club values – people‑centred coaching, community, and courage – guide everything we do. Our main focus is high‑quality activities for children and young people. Tapion Sulka is a Tähtiseura (Star Club) recognised by the Finnish Olympic Committee and the Finnish Badminton Association. This means, among other things, that we follow the principles of fair play in all our activities.

Our home hall is Esport Center, located in Tapiola Sports Park. We also train in Otaniemi and Suurpelto. Every year we organise several international, national, and internal club tournaments. To strengthen and maintain our good team spirit, we also arrange additional activities such as Open Doors events, ranking tournaments, and season‑ending celebrations for our members.

In our daily coaching we also advance the goals of our new strategy period 2026–2028:

• Our bold way of working makes us a pioneer and innovator; our brand is strong and our message reaches beyond the badminton community.

• People‑centred coaching provides our members with experiences of success, mental and physical wellbeing, and the joy of movement every day, while enabling players to progress towards the top of European and world badminton.

• Our badminton community grows and thrives; we are an attractive partner and workplace both regionally and among organisations outside the sport.

The club was founded on August 21, 1960, and is one of the oldest badminton clubs in Finland. Today, amongst our members, we have third‑generation Tapion Sulka families.
