Senior
Our (1) SENIOR will be greatly missed. At the conclusion of the 2017 Badminton season, a final farewell to our only senior is a very sad moment. She provided the team with many victories and memorable moments. Frances set excellent examples for the younger players to follow. She had excellent attendance and always conducted herself as a perfect Lady Rebel. Frances served as our team MOM, team CAPTAIN, and team ACCOUNTANT. Most Valuable Player (Off the Court)
FRANCES ROMERO (2014 to 2017)
Dedication, Athletic Ability, and Pride = Rebel Badminton
Luck has nothing to do with success in the sport of Badminton. Dedication, knowledge, and hard work all contribute equally to becoming a winning Badminton player.
