We are the Somerset Badminton Association, which comprises everything from Juniors, through Seniors to Masters (O40s upwards, was called Veterans)

Although most of the news you might see is about the teams representing the County at different age levels, we have a good league and club structure across the county for all levels and we hope to keep you up to date with information on clubs for juniors and adults around the county, league positions, upcoming tournaments and their results. There are several active groups of beginners and improvers alongside clubs catering for players of all levels all across the county.
