Our Goal Statement
To have a full contingent (5 males and 5 females 15-years and older) of competitive players at National competitions by 2019.
Badminton PEI has created a High Performance Plan for 2016-2019. We intend to increase our progress in developing our programs by focusing on the following:
Updates regarding High Performance camps/activities will be listed on this page.
Badminton PEI is beginning the process of forming the 2019 Canada Winter Games team taking place in February, 2019 in Red Deer, Alberta. The coach of the Island squad will be Kevin Yan. We are having the first try-out camp, in preparation of forming a Provincial Team. This try-out camp will be held at Three Oaks Senior High, Summerside, starting at 10:00 a.m. on Sunday, October 15. Players are asked to come prepared to stay until 5:00 p.m., bringing a lunch and water, as well as their gym-wear, indoor sneakers and racquets. A second try-out camp will be held in December. These camps are only open to Island residents, or Island university/college students enrolled in full-time studies out-of-province. All athletes must be under 23 as of Dec. 31, 2018.
The Provincial Team will train regularly, and compete in tournaments, both on-Island and off-Island. Only players willing to commit to the training should come to the try-outs, since there is a fair time and financial commitment involved with being a member of a Provincial team and a Canada Games team. Students studying off-Island would need to have regular training during the school year at their university/college or at a club nearby, as well as attending tournaments.
Please let competitive, eligible, age-appropriate badminton players know about the try-outs. Players are asked to register for the camp in advance by emailing Badminton PEI at badm.pei@gmail.com
