Badminton championship players decided

Horsham Badminton Association’s annual club championships were played out on Monday night, with a large number of participants.

With atmosphere and sportsmanship described by association president Luke Dunn as ‘exceptional and a testament to the character of all participants’, 60 people played in singles, doubles and mixed doubles matches.

Ten pairs entered A Grade men’s doubles and competed fiercely, with Ben Sawyer and Joel Beggs overcoming Dunn and Peter Brennan in the final, 30-27.

Sawyer and his sister Caitlin won the A Grade mixed doubles, defeating Beggs and Amy Barton 30-25.

Horsham newcomer Harshdeep Singh has dominated in the teams’ singles competition, and as predicted, was the prized winner of the championship singles final, defeating Sawyer 30-21.

Caitlin Sawyer defended her 2025 singles title in the A Grade Ladies’ event, smoothly outpacing Ellen Jalil 30-9, and teamed with Barton to comfortably finish top of the A Grade Ladies’ round-robin format.

B Grade men’s singles came down to the wire with Rohan Austin overcoming Alvin James in the final 30-28.

B Grade ladies’ singles saw the experienced Helen Francisco tactically defeat Carolyn Beggs 30-18.

Jayden Robertson teamed with Aden Merrett to be victorious over James and Laurie Liston in the B Men’s final 30-22.

The B Grade Ladies’ doubles final has been agreed to be played on Monday next week, where Whitney O’Sullivan and Jenny Maroske will take on Carolyn Beggs and Elley Cummings in what should be a close match.

For the first time there was a junior singles competition and Jackson Hams played outstandingly, defeating Jack Sawyer 30-13.
