Join Our Exciting Training Sessions and Matches
At Devon County Junior Badminton, we focus on enhancing the skills of players who are already engaged with their local clubs. We encourage aspiring athletes to first explore clubs in their area, as these local connections are vital for development. Our program is designed to complement the training you receive at your club, providing additional opportunities for growth and competition. With a team of enthusiastic coaches, we aim to create a nurturing environment where players can refine their abilities and build lasting friendships. We also invite parents to participate in our community, whether by supporting events or simply cheering on their young athletes. Join us to elevate your game and connect with fellow badminton enthusiasts.
For local club recommendations, please feel free to email us at devonjuniorsecretary@gmail.com for advice and we we will do our best to assist.
What We Offer
Our training sessions run from September to March, held around twice monthly. The season's training fee was set at £180 for 2024-2025. The price for the 2025-2026 season will likely be similar and will be playable nearer the time.
In the summer, we have a series of pay as you go sessions to help us get ready for the next season as a county. Please find the details for our upcoming summer sessions below.
As a county, we compete in the Shires League and the South West League from September to April. We try to give as many players the chance to play in a competitive match.
