Jamaica claims Silver in Badminton Men's Singles. Jamaican Kile Ford in his first Special Olympics has earned himself a second Silver Medal in Badminton.

Earlier this week Kile Ford along with Unified paralympic partner Travis Ebanks made Jamaica proud by winning Silver in the Unifed Mens Doubles Event. Today Kile Ford who is only 20 defeated Norways Hans Jakob Skree 21-15, 21-18 to secure the Silver in Mens Singles Division 2.

Coach Clarke was jubilant and proud of Kiles performance especially as it’s his first Olympics and added that at 20 this certainly won't be his last.
