TEAM SELECTION

ID CAMPS
(Fall 2021, when/where possible)
Team ID Camps are an opportunity for athletes interested in attending the Games to meet coaches, play games, learn some new skills, and get on court (perhaps for the first in months). While no roster decisions are made at the ID camps, they do offer team coaches a chance to get to know athletes from all parts of the region, which is especially important after a long period without tournaments or competition.

Badminton at the Manitoba Winter Games
Badminton has been a part of the Manitoba Winter Games (MWG) for a long time and the tradition will continue in 2022.
Athletes participating in Manitoba Winter Games Powered by MB Hydro are identified for further competitive opportunities with Badminton Manitoba.

Each Region will have its own specific development and qualification process.
Please check our website for updates and more info on your regional tryouts and training opportunities.

Team Competition was introduced at the 2018 MWG, and is a large part of the national and international badminton scene. It is the basis of competition for the Western Canadian Team Championships, Canada Winter Games, and some international events such as Thomas and Uber Cups, and brings many benefits such as teamwork, camaraderie and excitement. We wanted to align our Manitoba Winter Games with these competitions so that athletes at our developmental level can experience this type of event!
