Veteran Badminton Tournament
22nd January - 28th January 2027
Join us for the yearly Veteran Badminton Tournament at Club La Santa. This week combines social interactions, individual and doubles training, all leading up to the three-day tournament. Matches will be played in all categories (men’s/ ladies’ singles, men’s/ ladies’ doubles, and mixed doubles), and the tournament format will follow either the pool, cup, or double knock-out system, depending on the number of participants in each category.
What to expect:
- Your hosts, Troels and Søren, will guide you through the week and organise the tournament
- Players of all skill levels are welcome, as the tournament will be structured based on ability rather than age
- The tournament will begin on Monday and take place over 2-3 mornings and/or afternoons, depending on the number of participants
- On Wednesday evening, we’ll enjoy a celebratory dinner and hand out prizes for the winners.
To organise the seeding and tournament plan, we kindly ask you to sign up for the event before arriving at Club La Santa.
