On the 27th November 2014, Ysgol Maesydderwen sent a KS3 and KS4 boys and girls badminton team up to Brecon Leisure Centre to play in the annual 5x60 South Powys Badminton tournament.
The day was a huge success and the players gave a great account of themselves. Our KS3 and KS4 boys managed to come joint 2nd in their groups but didn't go through to the next round due to games difference.
Our KS4 girls team had close games but also just missed out on going through.
A mention has to go to our KS3 girls team that before this tournament had never played the game. They showed a great improvement though out the tournament that was noted by other players and sports development officers.
Overall all the pupils that took part enjoyed the day and have said that they wanted to attend the 5x60 racket club after school on a Monday. Well done to all the pupils that took part.
