Always wanted to be a part of the officiating team at a badminton tournament without having to seat on the umpires podium? Well now's your chance! We need to fill 18 linesman (OR WOMAN!) positions for the Provincial Championships on Sunday April 15th, for the A Finals. Linesman will rotate on and off on Court 2 so that each linesman will volunteer a maximum of 2 matches, and a minimum of 1 match. Linesman need no previous training, but should have experience playing or being involved with the sport of badminton at any level. Linesman are specifically to aid the Match Umpire with all shuttles that land near or around the lines. All linesman will be required to take the linesman course prior to helping officiate any matches. The details for the training is below:
Linesman Training
Sunday April 15th @ WWC (TV Room)

Just in case you need to be inspired, here are two different YouTube clips of linesjudging (good and bad).
Thanks,
