The Ukraine national badminton team (Ukrainian: Збірна України з бадмінтону, romanized: Zbirna Ukrayiny z badmintonu) represents Ukraine in international badminton team competitions.[1] Ukraine participated in the Thomas Cup, the Uber Cup and the Sudirman Cup as part of the Soviet Union. After the abolishment of the USSR in 1991, the Ukrainian Badminton Federation was formed and the national team has been competing under the Ukrainian flag ever since.
