SUMMARY:Badminton at the 2025 SEA Games
DESCRIPTION:Updated on January 13\, 2026\n\n\nBadminton competitions at the 2025 Southeast Asian Games took place from 7 to 14 December 2025 in Pathum Thani\, Thailand. The events were contested at Gymnasium 4\, Thammasat University Rangsit Campus. \n\n\n\nA total of seven events was featured at the Games\, consisting of men’s and women’s singles\, men’s and women’s doubles\, mixed doubles\, and men’s and women’s team events. \n\n\n\nIn this edition\, medals were won by five countries: Indonesia (10 medals)\, Malaysia (9)\, Thailand (6)\, Singapore (2)\, and Vietnam (1). This represents a decrease from the nine medal-winning countries in the previous edition.
