SCOTLAND'S badminton players have their first chance to stake a claim for a place in the team for the Commonwealth Games this weekend, when the Scottish National Championships take place in Perth.
There are a few who can be all but sure of selection, even at this early stage. In the singles events, Keiran Merrilees and Kirsty Gilmour are so far ahead of the rest of the field in their respective disciplines that, barring injury, they will most certainly be competing in Glasgow next year.
