Tho badminton club started playing early in October and continued through until almost Easter. The badmint n team concentrated its efforts in the month precoding tho W. 0. S. S. A. tournament which was hold this year on April 13. A few of the gym classes were devoted to badminton, but tho school-wide t urnaments wore held during the special intramural periods which were instituted this year. Tho playing of badminton servos two functions in tho extra-curricular activities of the students. It offers keen competition for those who enjoy competitive sports and aro physically and mentally able to play them. It is also one of the few co-educational sports which can be learned easily and on joyed by pooplo ;f even tho least athletic ability. It is one of the few sports that are learned in high school which can be played by the individual once he has left school and i3 in need of some form of regular physical recreation. The senior students played Fridays after school and tho grade 10 students playod Wednesday mornings from 7:30 a.m. to 8:30 n.m. The badminton team has functioned as a competitive unit end as such participated in three separate tournaments.. Some 20 to 30 competitors took part in the annual novice badminton tournament at tho Hunter in Windsor. Later some eight team members journeyed tc Kennedy Collegiate in Windsor where our friendly rivalry with tho Kennedy team was renewed. Six team members to -k a trip to Crown Point High School to view somo of the preliminary matches of the United States Open Badminton Tournament where we had an jp ;ertunity to see the v rld ' s champion players in action. Tho highlight of tho team ' s activities is always the V . 0. S. S. A. tournament. We have come close in tho last tw- ' years to winning a championship but have not yet had enough tc xinish in top pc sit-ion. Wo hope that .up turn will come within a few short yoars.
