Grading

Badminton Ireland are delighted to have launched the Gradings for the 2012/13 season with the assistance of each of the four Branches.

The Grades run from Premier, A to H and Non Classified (NC) for those waiting to be assessed or where a new member record was created.

Players entering in any Badminton Ireland competitions will be entered in graded events using these gradings.

Players not appearing in the list should contact their respective Branch for advice - unaffiliated players are automatically removed from any grading lists received.

All new BI members are automatically graded NC until we are advised of a grade by the respective branch.

To check your grade or confirm your membership ID please click here. (updated 3 May '13). Please note this list is not exhaustive, but at this stage of the season, all clubs who affilaited manually and not through the online system have been added (members details have been recorded for insurance purposes and full cover is in place).

If your name is not appearing here and you need a BI number or Grade for a tournament entry, please contact us.  It is vital to use your BI membership number to ensure ranking points, where relevant, are allocated. Failure to do so can result in ranking points not being allocated to your profile and it is not always possible to remedy errors after the event. Increasingly tournament organisers are using the validation in the system , so entering tournaments via your BI account rather than old Tournament Software accounts is recommended, as even minute differences in spelling names/club/etc. can cause issues. If you do not have login details to your BI account, please contact membership at membership@badmintonireland.com - you can update you profile fully and this will speed up your tournament entry.

Please note : Junior = A/B grade; Intermediate = C grade
