Junior tournaments are split into three different sections.
Gold/Silver/Bronze BADMINTON England Junior Circuit
There are Junior circuit tournaments for U17, U15, U13 and U11 age groups. Within the U17, 15 and 13 age groups the tournaments are rated Gold, Silver and Bronze (Gold tournaments being the highest standard). For players in the Under 11 age group, BE offer the Under 11 circuit.
In each age group (except U11 who are not graded) players can earn a grading varying from 1, 2 or 3, based on their past results. These player gradings are relative to the tournament ratings:
-
Gold - Grade 1 (anyone eligible)
-
Silver - Grade 2 (Grade 1 not eligible)
-
Bronze - Grade 3 & Ungraded (Grade 1 & 2 not eligible)
All tournaments are open to anybody, provided their grading is not above that allowed for that tournament (i.e. no Grade 1 players in Silver tournaments). However there are suggested guidelines for what tournaments players should enter, for more details please refer to specific entry forms.
Please see Gradings for more information on tournament ratings and player gradings.
Drug Testing: Please be aware that drug testing may take place at domestic tournaments as well as international tournaments. If you enter a BADMINTON England sanctioned tournament you can be tested. Athletes should make themselves aware about the UKSport anti-doping initiative, information is available through the Anti-Doping Section of our website.
