Badminton Success

Congratulations to our badminton teams who took part in the local area badminton tournament. Hambridge A won their group and Hambridge B also won their group which meant Hambrige A played Hambridge B in the final. This means that both teams progress in to the South Somerset Finals on 22 November.

Badminton Silver

Team Hambridge celebrated a silver medal at the Somerset School Games Finals at Millfield.

The team were narrowly beaten in to second by Wiveliscombe.

Badminton coach Mr Francombe was proud of his teams efforts. Having finished first and second at the South Somerset finals, Hambridge were represented by two teams. The A team, made up of year 6 pupils, performed amazingly well to finish second and collect the silver medal. The B team squad included a number of year four pupils who stepped up to represent Team Hambridge, due to the competition clashing with the Indoor Athletics final, proving the talent runs deep at Hambridge.

Badminton Teams Make County Finals

Hambridge will once again be represented at the Somerset Sainsburys School Games Badminton finals.
