Dec 13 New – Badminton Lessons
Application for Badminton 2018
Badminton at St Vincent’s Castleknock College 2018 will be managed by Brian Kearney & Co, who also manages our tennis. The international standard coaches working with Brian will be Mark Topping, David Walsh & Reaz Vawda. We plan to enter the schools leagues in 2018-19. Shuttlecocks and racquets will be supplied (though it is best to get your own racquet eventually). We will be playing on the four badminton courts in our new Sports Hall.
If you sign up for badminton 2018 you get:
- Badminton coaching on Monday lunchtime every second Monday
- Badminton coaching for an hour after school every Friday
- Access to the internal badminton competitions in both singles and doubles.
The cost is €90, which covers January to May. The first lessons will be on Monday 15 January (Group A) and Friday 19 January (Group A & B).
Our badminton players will use the PE outfit, but any gear will do so long as the students wear runners.
There are two groupings to choose from:
- Group A who are the elite players and who are already quite good at Badminton will train every second Monday lunchtime and 4:45-5:45pm every Friday.
- Group B who are not quite as accomplished as Group A will train on every second Monday and 3:45–4:45pm every Friday.
(There may be some fluidity later for those who wish to change groups)
