. Greetings, The Official Website for the 16th Asian Games has been released: http://www.gz2010.cn/special/0078002F/enindex.html This 2010 event will be held in Guangzhou, China. I believe that many BCers would be following Badminton in this Asian Games. So, let us update any Badminton news regarding to this event, as we get informed. Cheers... chris-ccc .
2010... ..will definitely be a busy year in sports, in general. For badminton, you've got the AG (not a BWF sanctioned event), BWF's TC & UC (in M'sia), BWF's World Championships (in France), BWF's World Junior Championships (in Mexico). Other sports: FIFA World Cup 2010, the Winter Olympics (Vancouver)... any other??.. Btw, not sure if kwun/mods want to move this thread to the Tournament sub-forum? Or risk being buried & un-noticed in this General Forum sub-forum/section??..
LOOKING forward on it...at tat time...ina,china,korea and mas will be very close in term of team event...
