Train, Compete, Enjoy

Sign up for Club La Santa’s Veteran Badminton Tournament, a week of training, social activities and competition designed especially for players aged 40+.

Matches will be played in all categories (men’s/ ladies’ singles, men’s/ ladies’ doubles, and mixed doubles), and the tournament format will follow either the pool, cup, or double knock-out system, depending on the number of participants in each category.

What to expect

  • Your hosts, Troels and Søren, will offer expert guidance throughout the week and organise the tournament
  • Players of all skill levels are welcome, as the tournament will be structured based on ability rather than age
  • The tournament will begin on Monday and take place over 2-3 mornings and/or afternoons, depending on the number of participants
  • On Wednesday evening, enjoy a celebratory dinner with your peers and hand out prizes for the winners.
