“Being selected to play for Team Canada is an incredible honor that all these athletes have worked tremendously hard to achieve”, said Jordan Bridal, Manager- High Performance with Badminton Canada. “We are extremely proud of one of the largest Badminton teams that has ever represented Canada and feel this group of NextGen athletes represents a great future for Canada internationally”.

Throughout the year, our junior athletes have been traveling the country in order to compete at Yonex Junior Elite Series events, in aspirations of qualifying for a spot on the Junior Pan American Team. As the Championship approaches, each athlete is one step closer to achieving their goal of representing their country on the international stage.

In preparation for the Championships, each Junior National Team member (U15-U19) will be provided the opportunity to participate in a regional training camp lead by our National Team Head Coach, Mike Butler. These camps will focus upon athlete testing – skill, physical, and tactical. By initiating the athlete baseline testing, we will be able to track athlete development throughout the season, and for years to come.

A large honor of being part of the Junior Pan American Team is receiving the National Team Uniform. Thanks to Badminton Canada’s sponsor Yonex, each team member will receive a full Team Canada clothing package. With all athletes and coaches wearing the latest Yonex gear in Canadian colors, Team Canada will be looking professional throughout the competition.

Badminton Canada is excited about welcoming countries from across the Americas to compete and share a passion for badminton, is thrilled about the level of competition that is ahead. Good luck to all athletes competing in the 2017 Junior Pan American Championships, and congratulations to all athletes who have been selected as part of Team Canada.
