The Year 4/5 City Badminton Championships took place on Friday 14th December at Nottingham Trent University, Lee Westwood Sports Centre.
Schools were asked to bring a team of 4 girls and 4 boys to the event which ran from 1pm-3pm. Pupils played their matches across eight courts and for many of the pupils taking part it was their first opportunity of playing on a full court.
Throughout the afternoon players showed their skill development by taking part in some exciting rallies, and playing matches in a variety of formats which included singles, doubles and mixed doubles. In total 96 games of badminton were played before the final rankings were announced.
Thank you to the four leaders from South Notts College who helped to score the matches as well as Martin Tilling who worked with Burford School prior to the event to help prepare their teams for the tournament.
