Badminton is a popular sport enjoyed by many at Clifton.

Badminton sessions primarily involve students from Years 11-13, but with the development of the Chellaram sports complex at our Beggar’s Bush site, we hope to extend the sessions to a wider group of pupils.

There are sessions for developing players, focusing on shot selection, grips and footwork, and there are sessions for our elite squad, with more advanced drills and more focus on singles and doubles tactics.

Every badminton game at Clifton is a mix of sweat, laughter, and epic rallies!
