Saina Nehwal, Peter Gade to Headline Legends’ Vision Legacy Tour India

Indian badminton icon Saina Nehwal and Danish legend Peter Gade will headline The Legends’ Vision – Legacy Tour India, a global initiative designed to promote the sport through community events, junior engagement programmes, and local partnerships.

The tour is being brought back to India after an eight-year hiatus and is scheduled to be held at the Siri Fort Sports Complex in New Delhi on November 23–24.

Saina Nehwal, a London Olympics bronze-medallist, was welcomed as one of the newest Legends associated with the platform, alongside Olympic champion Carolina Marin. Expressing her enthusiasm, she stated that returning to her home country through the initiative was a special moment and emphasized that badminton has given her invaluable experiences in life.

On November 23, interactive junior exhibitions were conducted with Saina, Gade, and Legends’ Vision Ambassadors, followed by the official launch of “A Racquet’s Second Life” in India, a programme aimed at promoting sustainability and encouraging young players.

Peter Gade, the 1999 All England Champion, highlighted that the programme has always been centred on giving back to the global badminton community and expressed pride in witnessing its continued growth.

The second day of the tour, November 24, will involve outreach activities across Delhi-NCR, providing fans with the opportunity to meet the legends in person.

The event is expected to generate heightened interest in badminton among young athletes and strengthen community engagement with the sport across the region.
