The performance pathway for Isle of Man badminton is changing this season to try to:

• Develop a more efficient transition from junior to senior county badminton
• Increase both court time and fitness training across the squads where possible
• Make better use of the coaching resources available on the island

The pathway will initially consist of the following squad which will be held at the NSC in the main sports hall:

Senior County Squad – Wednesdays 8.15pm – 10.00pm

This squad will be selected primarily based upon a player’s potential to represent the island in one of the two county teams for the coming season as well as including a select number of junior players that have the potential to do so in the future.
