Background

In 2024 the College will continue to work with Wellington North Badminton to provide a comprehensive coaching programme for students to develop their skills. Teams are made up of 4-6 players.

In 2023 we had 20 Badminton teams that competed in the weekly competitions. Most years we have teams that qualify for the regional finals. We aim to send our Premier teams to the National Secondary School Badminton tournament held during Winter Tournament week. A highlight for 2023 was being able to have 3 teams compete in the National Secondary School Badminton tournament in Porirua.
