We organize junior league competitions for players aged 8 to 20, with prizes sponsored by Yonex. We thank Yonex for their support.
Our junior league provides you with the chance to have fun and develop your full-court playing skills — whether it’s your first competition or if you’re a regular competitor.
We run singles and doubles competitions as part of the league, and welcome players from many clubs, including Allander BC, City of Glasgow, BASE, Erskine, SAPC, Glasgow Badminton Academy, Scotstoun and Shuttleworks.
Ten Junior League competitions are planned each season, this year a mix of singles and doubles. They take place on Sunday mornings in Scotstoun.
For the 2023-24 season, we are excited to announce that we will be providing more courts and an earlier start time, which will allow for even more playing time. It is important to note that there has been a significant increase in court and shuttle costs, and as a result, the entry fee will be raised to £7. We are confident that these changes will improve the overall experience for all participants.
