There was no shortage of enthusiasm from the youngsters who took part yesterday in the first primary interschool badminton tournament since 2019.
Covid had put paid to the annual event at the association hall in recent years but it was back in full swing yesterday.
Students from Te Wharau, Makauri,
Central, Te Hapara and Horouta Wananga competed for the Dunstan & Kinge (boys) and White Family (girls) shields.
The action started from 9.30am as students began their fixtures on the three courts and by the end of the day, Te Wharau had claimed the overall honours in both competitions.
