CROMBIE JUNIOR BADMINTON TEAM LEAGUE
HISTORICAL INFORMATION
The Junior Crombie Cup has been competed for since 1959 by various junior teams throughout
the North East of Scotland. The Badminton Planning Group was therefore delighted when the
Crombie Committee decided to donate the cup to the Junior Badminton Team League. The
original intention of the Crombie Cup Competition was to foster and promote competitive
badminton throughout the North East and it is hoped that the Junior Team League, now in its 18th
year, will carry on this objective for years to come.

2. All players must be of secondary school age and in S1 – S6 year.
3. The games will consist of one end with no setting.
4. The order of play in each match will be as follows:

8. Teams must register players in ranking singles order according to ability and not age or school year.
Teams must then play players in ranking singles order.
(If entering more than one team it is advisable to rank all the players in one ranking list & organise
them into teams according to their playing ranking. This allows better banding of divisions and
makes it easier for team managers to move players up a place when a team member is not
available allowing players to still play within a banding suitable for their ability level.)
Teams may be put into divisions according to the number of entries & level of ability of players
within teams.
9. For each match two league points will be awarded for a win and one league point for a draw. (What
constitutes a match is outlined in rule 4 above.)
10. An adult, who should stay for the duration of play unless otherwise agreed in advanced with
the organiser, MUST accompany each team and be available to score games in conjunction with
the opposing team adult (assistance can be provided on request for any newcomers).
11. Any changes or substitutions to teams must be done in writing & handed to the table at registration
before tie starts. If adding a new player who has not already been entered on the TEAM
REGISTRATION FORM full details of player are required. Players must be slotted in according to
their playing ability within the teams declared ranking singles order. If a player is injured during
singles a direct substitution may be made for doubles.
12. The committee shall have the power to resolve any question arising, not provided for by the rules
and to review each team according to the aforementioned rules.

Use a separate team registration form for each team entered.
For each team entered there must be a different team manger.
It is important to enter each team manager’s contact details and not

electronically please contact Joan Prieur.
Schools/Clubs/Groups entering more than one team must at all times have the first
team players (ranked in order of ability) registered as such. The first 4 names will be
deemed to be the first team players. It is therefore necessary to have your strongest
four in order in your first team regardless of age or school year, next strongest four in
order is your second team and so on. Please mark in the ‘playing level’ column an
indication of the player’s ability level. For emergency purposes please enter each player
