Form has held true in the second annual Cayman Islands National Badminton Championships, which is being sponsored by the Royal Bank of Canada and played at the Cayman Islands Middle School.

All of the seeded players reached the semi-finals, which were played on Wednesday evening. The finals take place tonight, starting with the Singles events at 7.00 p.m.

In the Ladies' Singles, Louise Leslie is the defending champion; the Men's Singles holder is Danny Scott; the Ladies' Doubles team of Janet Gordon and Louise Leslie will attempt to hold on to their crown, but the other two events will see a new champion.

Last year's Men's Doubles winning pair of Danny Scott and Doug Young aren't entered this year as is the case in the Mixed Doubles where the team of Louise Leslie and John Reid are not competing.
