Thursday the 20th October, we started a journey to Tuzla, where on Friday the 21st, we took part in the 4th Traditional International Inclusive Badminton Tournament. Schools with programs for children with disabilities and regular elementary schools participated in the tournament.
Our school was represented by Rok and Žan, both did an excellent job and qualified for the tournament’s finals.
After an unfortunate draw in the quarterfinals, Rok had to face a player, who later won the tournament, and lose the game 1:2.
Žan reliably dealt with his opponents in the quarterfinals and semi-finals, and qualified for the grand final of the tournament. The start was excellent, as Žan took won the first set, but later on the opponent took the initiative and beat him 2:1.
The final results:

The tournament was not only competitive, as we took a tour of the city of Tuzla, met new friends and, above all, enjoyed the hosts hospitality.
