We are delighted to announce that Cambridgeshire Badminton Association will restart junior training following the most recent pandemic lockdown period, starting on 15th April 2021.
The session on 15th April will begin with a wider age group of players of the ages approximately 14 years old and below. The age groups and sessions will be a little more flexible for the first few weeks as these sessions get re-established, and we are able to determine which players are still interested and available to represent the Cambridgeshire region, and encourage new players to try out for the various squads.
The sessions will now run twice a week depending on age group, with sessions on Wednesday and Thursday. Wednesdays will be at Northstowe from 7:45pm (location and time still subject to final confirmation), whilst Thursdays will remain at Swavesey Village College starting at 6:40pm.
To begin with, sessions will be pay-as-you-play until the programme is established. For safety reasons, attendance must be strictly monitored, so please do not attend unless you have booked a place beforehand.
Open trials sessions will be held in April and May. If you are a parent or guardian, or a coach, of a player who is 16 or under who is not currently a County player, but who you think is capable of competing for a place or shows the potential to do so, please contact badminton@bates.net to arrange to attend.
More details and a full schedule for the sessions are available on the Junior Squads page.
