To All Badminton Co-ordinators/PE Teachers,

The first week will consist of grading games. This will help us make it an even and enjoyable competition for everyone.

This competition is more for recreational players and people who want to have a go at a new sport. So I would ask schools that have Manawatu Junior Reps players in their teams to please spread those players throughout their teams. i.e. no more than two rep players per team.  4 person teams (having reserve players is strongly encouraged).

There will be multiple grades in both Junior (Years 9&10) & Senior (Year 11+) levels, split by gender. Co–ed schools need to enter boys and girls teams. There will be no mixed teams in this year's competition.

The competition will be a doubles only format as it was last year.

The total number of entries from all schools is capped at 74 teams due to court space. There is no cap on the number of teams a school can enter, but we reserve the right to cap the number of teams if we get a big flood of entries.
