Badminton

Badminton is an emerging sport at Downside and has seen significant growth in recent years. An extra-curricular activity is available throughout the academic year and boys and girls in the Fifth Form and Sixth Form can choose the sport as a Games option in the Michaelmas Term; training three times a week and receiving excellent coaching from our Head of Badminton, Mr Simon Potter. The Ortuzar Sports Hall has four badminton courts and offers pupils an excellent facility for training and competition. Competitive inter-school fixtures are organised for boys and girls, with regular opposition including Sherborne, King’s Bruton and Wells Cathedral School.
