Jamaica College Badminton on Fire!!!!!!!!
2024-2025 – Boys are doing extremally well.
The boys did extremely well in both competitions that were entered, the team is under 15 but entered the under 19 competition for experience. They placed 4th which is a remarkable accomplishment as it was filled with national junior players in the un 17 and 19 categories. They actually beat every team in the un 15 competition but placed 2nd as the Badminton Association said it was a points competition and Campion was placed 1st as they had two points more than us, even though we beat them 4 – 1. It was hard for us as we completely dominated the champions. We still have a chance to take home the All Island Championships as Campion and Jamaica College will join the two rural teams in the All Island finals
