Developing our young players: U13 Badminton 180

Congratulations to Charlie Junnor and Riya Bhaskar who came out on top in the boys and girls singles at the U13 Badminton 180 on Sunday 19 June 2022.

Ran by Glasgow & North Strathclyde Badminton Group and hosted at Sir Craig Reedie Badminton Centre, this competition was the first of its kind – giving junior players more opportunities to play and compete!

The competition took a new format and involved 12 boys and 6 girls all playing 10 games. The boys played in two separate round-robin groups of 6 players with the top three in each group forming a second group and the same for the bottom three. The girls played a double round-robin.

We’re already looking ahead to the next event for the U12s on Sunday 3 July 2022. Entries close on Saturday 25 June. Sign up now!

We’d love to plan more events like this for young people throughout the year, so please get in touch with peter@badmintonscotland.org.uk if you are interested in organising a similar competition.
