New Year's Badminton

Hello everyone,

We hope you've had a good Christmas and ended the year well.

Tuesday Jan. 6th is the start of the winter/spring badminton session which runs to mid June on most Tuesdays and Thursdays from 7 to 9:30 pm for regular play.  Everyone will have to pay session fees again which are unchanged at $40 for adults and $20 for juniors under 19 years old.  For those paying the by-the-night alternative, nightly fees are $5 for adults and $2 for juniors.  Fees should be paid before going on court.

Coaching is now scheduled from 6 to 7 pm on Tuesday nights which are preferred by our juniors.


January's two round robin nights are scheduled for Tues. Jan. 13 and Thurs. Jan 29.

Make a good start in 2015 by coming out to badminton.  If you're like us, you've taken in a lot of extra calories during the festive season so can look forward to burning the excess off on court while having lots of fun & laughs.

Wishing you a Happy & Healthy New Year,

Terry, Dave, Mark, Mike, & Gill

Round Robin & Glen Crowley Nights

Hello everyone,

This is to let you know about some special nights in November. 

There will be round robin nights Tues. Nov. 11 and Thurs. Nov. 20, starting at 7:20 as usual.  There will be courts for regular play, but most players will be in the round robins.

November 25th will be our annual Glen Crowley Night.  For those few who don't know, Glen is the racquet sport specialist from whom we buy our  birds and club racquets and more.  He'll bring large displays with samples of stuff related to badminton, including clothes, shoes and sports bags, and usually has special racquets that people can try during the night. 

Light refreshments will be available on the 25th, and there will be no charge for guests. We'd like a large turnout to show our support for Glen.

See you on court,
Terry, Dave, Mark, Mike, & Gill
