Oceania Badminton regional development manager Nadia Bleaken will return to Saipan later this month to hold the 2011 NMBA Summer Youth Clinic.
Bleaken, who visited Saipan for the first time in October last year to conduct a clinic for high school students, will be arriving on island on June 26 in time for the Northern Marianas Badminton Association-led clinic that will run from June 27 to 30.
The four-day clinic is open for players in the 7 to 18 age group and will run from 9am to 12pm at the TSL Sports Complex.
Registration is only $5 per person and NMBA will provide the needed equipment during the sessions.
During her first visit on Saipan, Bleaken, who coached and led development programs in the U.S., Canada, and Australia, conducted clinics at the Marianas High School and Mt. Carmel School, drawing more than 100 students in the one-day clinic.
The Oceania Badminton regional development manager also held a coaching clinic for NMBA members and graced the opening of the 4th Annual Traders Insurance Badminton Team Tournament.
