A super morning of badminton competition ran at Kingslea School this morning as two host teams were joined by two teams from Holbrook School to first do some skills work before engaging in a team-based singles round-robin and then a doubles tournament.
Kingslea were hospitable hosts but not so generous on court as their teams displayed some powerful and clever badminton to turn the screws in the matches. Holbrook may have been less experienced but they still represented with distinction and perseverence to make the Kings earn their success.
