Forza logo

Unipart and FZ Forza have teamed together again this year, to sponsor another local School Badminton Tournament here in Birmingham.  W.M.P.C. (West Midlands Performance Centre) are hosting the School Badminton Tournament for the second year. The event is for school children who like playing badminton. Who have little experience apart from at school and in the back garden. It is an opportunity for children to taste competitive badminton and possibly open the doors to junior county badminton.  The event will be attended by coaches from local counties and performance centre to identify potential talented players.

The winners of each age group will qualify for the NATIONAL school badminton tournament Finals to be held in June 2013.
