🏸 Canterbury ABC Championships Wrap-Up 🏸

What a fantastic weekend of badminton at the Canterbury ABC Championships!

With an incredible 121 entries across A, B and C Grades, the atmosphere in the hall was buzzing. A huge thank you to all the players, supporters, volunteers and officials who helped make the event such a success.

A special highlight was the return of the C Grade Championships for the first time in a number of years. We were delighted to see so many of our club and social-grade players step onto the court and experience the excitement of competitive tournament play. The enthusiasm, sportsmanship and determination on display showed exactly why providing these opportunities is so important for growing our badminton community.

We'd also like to acknowledge the large number of spectators who joined us throughout the weekend. Your support created an awesome atmosphere and added to the excitement of every match.

Last chance to enter!

Entries close Wednesday at 11.59pm for the Badminton Canterbury ABC Tournament. Please ensure your partner has entered too. (Formerly the Canterbury Closed Champs).

This year, we’ve relaxed the entry criteria to create more opportunities to play. This is an unsanctioned event.

We’ve also added a C Grade to better cater for club-level and social players from our drop-in sessions.

Hope to see you there.
