BWF profile

Ruud Bosch (born 28 July 1984) is a former Dutch male badminton player. He was a doubles specialist.[1] He became a member of the Netherlands national badminton team in 2004, then in 2006, he won a silver medal at the European Badminton Mixed Team Championships.[2] After quitting the Men's Doubles combination with Dutch partner Koen Ridder after eight years in August 2014, Bosch moved to Taiwan to form a new combination with Tien Tzu-Chieh in Men's Doubles and Shuai Pei-ling in Mixed Doubles.[3] After two years in Taiwan, he returned to Europe to play again in the German Bundesliga for his German club Union Lüdinghausen. He won the Dutch National Badminton Championships seven times, four times in Men's Doubles (2006, 2009, 2011 and 2013) and three times in Mixed Doubles (2008, 2011 and 2013). In December 2018, Bosch was appointed as head coach of the Netherlands and in October 2023 his contract at Badminton Nederland was terminated.
