February's Badminton

Hello everyone,

Please take note of the following:

Tuesday Feb. 2nd is the first day of the season's second badminton session.  Your name will not be in the Session Members Section of that night's Sign in Sheet if you haven't already paid the session's fee; and you will have to pay nightly fees from that date onward until you pay the session fee.  People that play over two times a month will save money by paying the session fee up front since the session runs until June 16th.  Nightly fees are $5/$2 for adults/juniors, whereas the corresponding session fees are $45/$25.

Thursday Feb. 4th is cancelled because of school activities in both gyms.

Tuesday Feb. 9th and Thursday Feb. 25th are round robin nights that require participants to arrive and sign up with Mark by 7:15 p.m.  Participants must be 14 years or older and must be able to stay until 9:30 if necessary.  Players can opt out and have regular play, but the experience of the past three round robin nights is that everyone turning out elected to play round robin. 

All Thursdays - The 6 to 7 p.m coaching session permit will be cancelled on Feb. 16th unless someone volunteers to do the coaching in place of Gill who isn't able to continue with the club at present. 

That's February's update for now.

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

Badminton Jan. 26, Jan. 28 & Feb.1

Hello everyone,

Three reminders for you:

1) Tuesday Jan. 26th is the last round robin night of January. Round robins are restricted to those 14 years and older.  There will also be regular play that night for those not interested in the round robins.  
As always: If you intend to play in one of the round robins you must arrive by 7:15 that night and register with Mark who will then set up the draw sheets.  Players in the round robins must be prepared to stay till 9:30 if necessary.

2) Thursday Jan. 28th is the last day of the season's first badminton session, so "single session" memberships expire at the end of that day.

3) Tuesday Feb. 1st is the start of the season's second session which runs until June 16th.  All players who don't have "double session" memberships must pay either the nightly fee or a single session membership fee.  The nightly fees are $5/$2 and the session fees are $45/$25 for adults/juniors.  Please pay before going on court to play.

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