Badminton

Our grades 5 and 6 badminton club has started.  We had a great turn out at our first meeting.  Badminton club will continue for any interested grades 5 or 6 boys and girls on Monday and Thursday morning at 8:15 a.m.  Grades 5 and 6 students will find partners to practice with and will hopefully play in a mini-tournament with their peers at Hillcrest.  The top doubles teams will have the opportunity to play another school.  In addition to the badminton club, the nets will be set up for the remainder of the morning, so that physical education classes will also have the opportunity to play net sports such as badminton, pickleball, and volleyball

We hope to have a mini-tournament for our grades 5 and 6 students.  Our tournament date will be either March 25th or April 1st in the morning.  To participate in the tournament, students will need to have a partner, know the rules, and practice scorekeeping, as badminton is a self-officiated game.  The top teams from the tournament will be invited to play in an exhibition game versus Niagara Street on Wednesday, April 3rd at Hillcrest (3:30-4:45pm).  Let's go Tigers!
