Clarification for high school and open athletes in singles:
High School Division:
i. A badminton player who exclusively trains with and competes with/for their high school and does not train or compete with/for any other badminton
program.
ii. A badminton player is eligible who ceased to train and compete with/for any badminton in the three (3) years prior to the beginning of the school year.
If the program(s) in question are simply recreational in nature (i.e. drop-in and play) type opportunities then the student could still qualify for the “high school” division. If the program(s) involves training or competition by a coach separate from the actual school program, then the student-athlete would be considered “open”.
