Thanks to all the coaches who volunteered to host. We had enough for all playday groups except one. For that group, a school was selected for mandatory hosting. In some zones we had extra volunteers, and I will try to select your school next year, if you were not chosen. If you are in a three school playday, it takes 1 ½ to 2 hours. If you are in a 4 school playday it takes 2 hours to 2 ½ hours. I recommend you start at 1:00 or 1:30.
Hosts responsibility:
• choose a start time and book your gym
• e-mail the start time and each schools team letter: Team A, B, or C (3 schools) Team W, X, Y or Z (4 schools)
• have new birdies (ask each school to bring a few back-ups)
• hand out the rosettes and bookmarks to the players (rosettes will arrive in the courier a few days before playday)
• confirm scores after each game with other coaches and record them on a master score sheet or poster.
Everyone's responsibility:
• download the appropriate scoresheet and fill the players names before playday (make sure no player has 2 games at the same time)
• bring 4 boys and 4 girls
• bring some new birdies as back up in case hosts do not have new birdies
• confirm teams scores with the host after each game
Grade 5/6 playday is Tuesday, May 6th
Grade 7 playday is Thursday May 8th
If hosts have gym conflicts, please work with your group to either reschedule the date or the location.
If you do change the date to an earlier date, please email me, so I can ensure that you have your ribbons.
Badminton coaches and athletes, best of luck to a new badminton season filled with perseverance, positivity, and sportsmanship!
