Another successful Junior Badminton Tournament was held at Tees Active’s Thornaby Pavilion.

 

The tournament, which is organised by the Teesside Badminton Development Association (TBDA), is sponsored by Tees Active Limited, who provided the Courts and Higman Sports, who provided the shuttles. The Tournament is open to all players under 19 years old, who attend a school or badminton club within the Tees Valley, regardless of ability.

 

The tournament has 18 singles categories, 16 level doubles categories and 3 mixed doubles categories. For each category there is a trophy and winner/s and runner/s-up medals to be won.

 

There were a total of 117 players entered into the tournament. Unfortunately some competitions had to be combined or were not run due to lack of entries in those age groups.

There were 60 Boys and 25 Girls taking part in the Singles competitions on the Saturday. The biggest group was the U13 Novice Boys with 17 entries. The next largest was the U15 Novice Boys with 12 players taking part. On Sunday, there were

45 Boys and 28 Girls taking part in the Doubles competitions

 

During the weekend there were 404 games of badminton played, 208 on singles day and 196 on doubles day.

Each event category had it’s own mini-league/s with appropriate semi-finals and finals.

Consequently every player had a chance to play several matches.

 

Tournament Referee, Roger Cook, said, "The pleasing aspect of this Tournament was the number of boys who entered the Under 13 and Under 15 Novice Singles Events. We now need to attempt the girls who have started to play badminton to enter this tournament. Whilst the novices entered the singles they did not pair up and enter the doubles events. This is something the organisers need to look at. With the TBDA now running several BADMINTON England Junior Tournaments, throughout the season, we need to review the make-up of this tournament for the future.

He wished to thank Sheila Boyes, from Thornaby Pavilion JBC, who was the organiser for this Tournament and all the Junior Club Coaches and other volunteers who help out on the day. Without their efforts, the tournament would not be a success. Also he wished to praise the support of Tees Active and Higman Sports, whose continued sponsorship of this tournament allows the entry fee to be kept low to encourage all players to enter”

 

Dates of the next two Local Junior Tournaments are 28th/29th March 2009 & 10th/11th October 2009 at Thornaby Pavilion.

 

In addition Thornaby Pavilion will be a hosting a number of BADMINTON England Silver & Bronze Tournaments during November, December, January & February.
