The SPBA is thrilled to announce they will again be hosting the YONEX SPBA Midwest Super Regional on Memorial Day Weekend, May 25-27th, 2019. This is the highest level and largest Junior National Ranking Tournament in the Midwest Region of the USA. The tournament is sanctioned by USA Badminton and is one level below Junior Nationals. It counts for 40% Junior National Ranking points, and it is the last major tournament to count for seedings for the 2019 Junior Nationals. It will also count towards qualifying for the 2019 Junior International Trials which determines the US Junior National Team to compete abroad. Each year our tournament hosts between 300 and 400 players, making it one of the biggest junior tournaments in the whole country. We expect a great turn-out again this year!
This tournament will not only draw the top junior players across the country but many new up and coming players will have the chance to experience a high level junior national competition for the first time.
Events will be held in U11, U13, U15, U17, and U19 age groups for all 5 disciplines (Boys Singles, Girls Singles, Boys Doubles, Girls Doubles, and Mixed Doubles) across 14 courts.
