DIVISION DESCRIPTIONS

Division	Description
Recreational	This division will feature teams that may have 1 skilled player, but also 1-2 inexperienced players and the team as a whole is just in it for the fun. If both of the main players are quite skilled in Badminton and competitive in nature, then the team should move up to a higher level. Teams in this division must have a “fun first” approach to every game. Note: Teams that register for Recreational but have had good success in this level will likely be moved up to a higher division before the season starts.
Recreational Plus	This division is for more experienced and successful teams. Players can serve and return with accuracy, and the team is looking for more challenge than the Recreational (starter) level. Not all players need to be highly skilled; it is more about the average skill and competitiveness of the team as a whole. Note: This is not a super competitive division, it will just feature teams that are better than starter level. Teams that register for Recreational Plus but have had good success in this level will likely be moved up to a higher division (if offered) before the season starts.
Badminton Club	All skill levels welcome. Specific courts will be designated for singles, doubles and skill levels. This is a less competitive alternative for members who want to play with and against a variety of other players in different formats. There will be an on-site coordinator that will help facilitate partners and games.

DIVISION NOTES

(1) SSC division offerings are based on the experience and skill level of the teams - not on their competitive behaviour. All SSC players are expected to play with a 'fun-first, winning second' attitude regardless of their division.

(2) The SSC may move your team up or down a division based on past results or the quality of other teams that have registered this season. Seeding for 2-3 weeks is another option the Club uses to re-align teams into the appropriate level after registering.

(3) Because the SSC does not host try-outs, teams/individuals/groups are expected to read the division descriptions and place themselves in the most appropriate division. If players are unsure of which division to register for, they are welcome to contact the office anytime for advice.
