Narayan Ramdhani, local champion of Badminton has made another impressive showing in Vancouver, Canada where he is on scholarship.
Ramdhani played the two day event at the Badminton BC, Port Coquitlam during February 18-19.
The 18 year old star dominated the day’s games in the Shuttlesport Badminton Academy’s Senior Open/Under 23 championships where he won first place in the Under-23 Mixed-doubles. Ramdhani also earned himself two third place finishes in the Open Men’s singles and Under-23 Men’s Doubles.
