It is unknown when badminton was first played in Venezuela. Former president of Venezuela, Marcos Pérez Jiménez was said to have played badminton recreationally in his spare time in 1952. Locals also claimed that badminton was brought over to the country by military officers from Europe.[3]
The Venezuelan Badminton Association was formed in 1960 and the national team competed in the 1959 Mexico City International held in Centro Deportivo Chapultepec, Mexico.[3]

The Venezuelan mixed team competed in their first international team tournament at the 2009 Bolivarian Games. The team finished in third place. In 2013, the team competed in the 2013 Bolivarian Games mixed team event. The team lost the third place tie to the Dominican Republic.
