Badminton Tryouts 2026

Badminton tryouts will begin the week immediately following March Break. Students interested in trying out for the team should come prepared with appropriate athletic clothing, indoor running shoes, and a water bottle. All equipment will be provided, but students may bring their own racquet if they prefer. 

Our goal is to provide a positive experience for all students, whether they are new to the sport or returning players. Coaches will be assessing basic skills, effort, teamwork, and sportsmanship throughout the tryout process. Final team lists will be shared after the tryouts conclude. Thank you to our coaches, Mr. Hansinger, Ms. Ross, Mrs. Clements, Mr. Carr, Mr. Scott, and Mme McQuarrie, for volunteering their time for our students 

Thank you for your support—we’re looking forward to a great badminton season ahead! Go Panthers!
