The Gravenhurst High School athletes of the month for April are Aiden Courville and Courtney and Taylor Playford.
Aiden Courville has been a fierce competitor on the badminton court, using his club experience to amp up his level of play throughout the season. He played strong sets at MPS, pressing on to secure a place at GBSSAs at Georgian College where he met opponents that challenged his position but not his love of the game. Aiden also acted as student coach to his peers this season, providing thoughtful and knowledgeable advice on how they could take on challengers and improve their play.
Courtney and Taylor took a chance as a junior doubles team in their grade nine year, with many bright seasons ahead of them from here. Though their journey ended at MPS, they grew a ton over the season. They worked together, communicating with clarity and respect to improve their dynamic, and they were very coachable as they listened to feedback and applied it immediately in their games.
