Barons badminton heading to provincials

It’s been a wild ride for Lloydminster Comprehensive High School (LCHS) Barons badminton as six of their athletes prepare to compete at provincials this weekend in Unity, Sask.

A strong showing at districts, held in Paradise Hill on April 29, had 14 or the Barons’ 16 players qualify for regionals, also held in Unity on May 6.

Despite some tough competition at regionals, the Barons were able to push through and are proud to be sending six athletes back to Unity for this weekend’s provincials.

“We have three Grade 12s, two Grade 11s and one Grade 10, so it was a smattering of age groups,” said coach Diane Gow.

“Congratulations to all the players moving forward and a big thank you to our parent support, nothing moves without you.”
