West Wales Graded 2025

Part of the Badminton Wales Graded Series

Top level badminton coming to Pembrokeshire!
Haverfordwest Badminton Club are delighted to announce we will be hosting the 2025 West Wales Graded competition in Pembrokeshire.
Sponsored by Valero, this will be the second time a top level badminton competition has been played on the west coast of Wales.
Make history.
Be a part of our journey.

The schedule
Information will be shared closer to the event but the order of play will be:
​
9am - Men's Singles
9am - Woman's Singles
tbc - Level Doubles
tbc - Mixed Doubles


Your entry
Depending on entries, we will aim to split each grade to give every player the best possible opportunity to progress and enjoy the tournament.
​
This year entries are via the Badminton Wales Tournament software - making things easier all round and simpler to pay.
​
Entry is capped at 120 players.
How to pay
You will need to pay when you enter via PayPal. The club will not be taking bank transfer payments this year and we hope this makes things much easier for our Treasurer!​
​
Refunds will be permitted until the entry closing date.


Join the WhatsApp community
Whilst we will try to keep the website up to date with all the latest information and respond to emails promptly, sometimes it's easier to just post a message in a group WhatsApp. It also can help others.
​
So we've set up a West Wales Graded WhatsApp group where the team will post useful information and you can ask questions.
​
Join here:
The format

The Team...
The competition is organised by the committee of Haverfordwest Badminton club and relies on our club members to volunteer on the day to #MakeItHappen
​
Hungry?
Normally the Sports Village doesn't have any food but team up with the school catering facilities next door who are going to provide a selection of menu choices on the day.
​
They'll be serving from a pod outside of the hall and we will share some of their great menu options in advance here.
