Membership upgrade required to enter Alberta Junior or Senior Elite events

If you are being blocked from entering a Badminton Canada junior or senior circuit event because you need to upgrade your membership category - please refer to the following solution.

To register for the Yonex Alberta Junior Elite - 'COMPETITIVE' type membership is required of all participants. The higher class of membership requires that Badminton Alberta remit an additional $15 to Badminton Canada for the national BCAN player license.

Meanwhile to participate in any of the Alberta Junior Circuit events - only the 'RECREATIONAL' membership is required. This class of membership will have Badminton Alberta remit $10 to Badminton Canada for the provincial BCAN player license.

The CLUB participant membership category allows players that are neither affiliated at the COMPETITIVE or RECREATIONAL level to enter a sanctioned event organized by their club or zone association, who wishes to use Tournament Planner to manage their event. 

If you are required to purchase an upgrade to any of our membership types, please log in to your Tournament Software account and chose the DETAILS tab on the right side of the screen and select the UPGRADE option.

Please ensure that you do not create an additional account, as each player is only allowed to have one active account within the database. If you or someone you know has more than one Tournament Software account, please contact Margaret at members@badmintonalberta.ca for the two account to be merged into one.
