Junior Badminton Results
Glenforest traveled to Rick Hansen yesterday to compete in the ROPSSAA badminton finals. With high expectations and hope of maybe a Junior team championship, the Gryphons started the day winning 5 of the first 7 matches played. The competition was intense and much to the disappointment of our team we had to settle for a fifth place overall.
Individual accomplishments included:
Undefeated in 5 straight matches Danusha Ambagahawta and Shazad Abraham-Doman received the gold medal for Men's Doubles
Nikhil Raheja placed 6th in Men's Singles
Monica Tran and Regine Li finished 7th in Women's Doubles
Philip Chen and Hetal Davda tied our other Mixed Doubles pair of Amaan Khan and Mila Evanics for 7th place
Jacky Chan and Steven Wong finished 9th in Men's Doubles
And Tanya Malhotra placed 12 in Women's Singles.
With 50 schools and over 800 students competing these are outstanding results.
Awesome job Juniors!!
