Badminton superstars will come to Finland in October to play a part of the World Tour called CLASH ROYALE Arctic Open powered by YONEX!
The Arctic Open is a part of the Badminton World Tour, where amongst registered players are some Olympic medalists and multiple TOP-10 players in all five disciplines.The arena is the Vantaa Energia Arena, where the competition will be played on October 8-13, 2024. The prize pool in the tournament is significant for Finnish standards, almost 500,000 dollars. As badminton is the second largest sport in the world, the World Tour competitions also have an impressive television presence: as the Arctic Open is a Super 500 competition, the reach will be more than 500 million households. In the fall of 2021, Finland organized the mixed team World Cup in the same arena, and according to newspaper reports, it was the most watched TV signal broadcast from Finland ever, when the final broadcast reached approx. 640 million households. We warmly recommend all players of our club and anyone outside the club who is even slightly interested in badminton to buy tickets to the arena for at least one day. Badminton is the best live!

Juniors' club day at Arctic Open
Here is a unique opportunity for all junior players of Tapion Sulka (born in 2006 or later) to get to watch the world's best badminton players' matches for FREE for one evening on Wednesday 9.10.! There is a coach from our club there to giving the players their tickets and guiding them to the Tapion Sulka seats. It's not mandatory to sit on the Tapion Sulka seats though. Juniors can also sit with their friends or family. The club practices run as usual at the Esport Center on that day, but we even recommend the Wednesday's players to skip that week's training and come to watch and learn from the world's best players. Ticket's can be gotten at 17:00, 17:30 or 18:00 at the arena. If you have to arrive later, please note the coach present (Nella, nella.siilasmaa@gmail.com) that she knows to come and give the ticket to the junior. You can leave according to your own schedule.
