It Seemed a shame to delete the things our club have been up to over last season. So this page is dedicated to those things.

Summer Tournament

In previous years our end of  term tournaments have been singles games. It was always thought a fairer way, because the players taking part were their own person and any mistakes were down to them. This tournament was different, doubles play, playing with other players meant they were playing as a team  and with players that may be stronger or weaker than themselves.  We had a bit of a practice at the Bristol 24 hour badminton marathon were it worked very well. The idea was to play doubles with each player in their group against other pairs in the same group chosen at random.

Summer skittles. 7 June 2008.

Fry social club was again the  venue for our summer skittles evening. It was very well attended by juniors and parents, a good chance for the newer junior members to socialise with the more established members with parent support. Thanks to Pete for manning the score board on the parent alley, bad back and all! And also to Malcolm for the scoring the junior side, not an easy job. Thanks also to Malcolm for putting together the raffle prizes, and thanks to God I didn't lose my voice calling out the numbers.

Bristol 24 hr Badminton Marathon Junior Tournament

 I was asked to organise a junior tournament on Saturday 19th April at the Bristol Academy while the 24 hour badminton marathon was taking place. There was a disappointing lack of numbers, but this could have been attributed to the Easter half term falling just before the weekend. But I am pleased to say that Keynsham Juniors and Kingsdown Juniors saved the day.

15 players in two groups, played first to 15 points using the rally point system. Because  initially it was meant to be a doubles tournament I felt we should keep to the same discipline. To make it fair the players took it in turn to pair up with a different partner each game and played one game against other pairs in their group, keeping track of their score we eventually found a first and second place.

Thanks to Zia, organiser of the Bristol Badminton Marathon for instigating the tournament, thanks to Jeremy for keeping score, and thanks to the juniors for turning up.

Easter tournament

The last session before a two week break, saw our Easter tournament. We had a rocky start with the 9.30 session because quite a few of the juniors had been away, so we were not sure who would turn up. Once everyone had turned up though things went well finishing with time to spare.

The second groups tournament went smoothly as well, with some of our newer players who had come up from the first group securing first and second in their group.
