The community spirit of the school also encourages girls to develop as individuals, to pursue their own interests and achieve their goals, both in academic and extra-curricular activities and not to be afraid of a challenge.
Badminton is also focused on ensuring that girls realise their potential so that they can be capable of achieving whatever they want to be when they leave school.

The major advantage of using a school for an umbrella organization is the coverage of students by the school’s liability insurance.
Eric approached the Spokane Parks department with a proposal for a weeklong badminton camp, and it was included as a class in the summer parks and recreation schedule which, in Spokane, is mailed to every home that receives a city utility bill.

Badminton is generally a very safe sport, though Stensland once got a fl eye when his opponent smashed a birdie toward him at close range.
But good badminton gyms -- with high ceilings for serious vertical shots, green walls for good birdie visibility and tightly controlled air conditioning that doesn't blow the shuttlecock around -- are hard to find.
Badminton is the fastest racket sport -- a birdie can leave the strings at a speed of nearly 200 mph.

 INQUIRER SPORTS WRITER, FITZPATRICK DROPS THE BALL
In the first place, Fitzpatrick gave the impression that badminton was not attended at the Olympics, when by the end of the very competition he described, the stands filled to nearly two thirds capacity.
He completely neglected to mention that during the first week of the summer Olympics, badminton was the number 1 most viewed sport on television, or that in 1992, 1.1 billion viewers around the globe watched the eight-day inaugural badminton competition on television.
To underscore that Fitzpatricks' only badminton experience is from picnics, he mistakenly tells readers that the shuttlecock has a "rubber point", when even the most novice club member, or high school student player could tell you it is made of cork.

It is the case that independent boarding schools such as Badminton are more likely to have their results distorted than day schools where the year groups more usually correlate to chronological ages.
