Anyone in or entering any of the following Jan 15 - Lancashire Open Jan 22 - Berkshire Open Jan 29 - Cambridgeshire Open (closing date 7 Jan) Jan 29 - Devon Open (closing date 8 Jan) Feb 12 - Cheshire Open (closing date 21 Jan) Feb 26 - Suffolk Open (closing date 4 Feb) I might have a go at Cheshire
Berkshire Cambridge Suffolk. Got two events on saturday, best of luck Slanter on Friday (funny day to schedual on). Matt
First round fodder again, at Cheshire. 16-17, 12-15 in an hour gave away far too many easy points more work needed on consistency...
How did you do in the Berkshire/suffolk (Slanter +Matt) Also anyone going to Leicester open (5th march?) or Yorkshire satelite (hull) april 9th? I am trying to do the Yorkshire one but I seem to always have a niggling injury on the go. Not sure about Leicester (closing date gone) but will probably go to watch.
Nope. might go watch though. The niggle got worse neil, its is a nono, but again will try go cheer you on!
Good to see Neil still at it, after my experience at Cornwall and gaining a couple of stone it made me think twice :crying: (well singles anyway)
Still going to Hull I've even put on a few pounds to give me extra, errr, slowness around the court. Damn it! Who prepared this training plan? Ronald McDonald?
Hi there, I just like ask what are the rules to enter tournaments is that you have to be a member of a league club or county level and register, as i am a member of Lee's badminton academy . thank you Akife
I think you have to be any of: directly affiliated to the BAofE affiliated to the BAofE through a club affiliated to another national Badminton Association I think this season, all clubs that affiliated to a County association had to affiliate all their members to the BAofE. LIBA membership would not qualify you (as far as I know)
I don't think you can apply to the baofe directly to play satellite tourneys, you have to go through a club.
Last year I played for a club that did not affiliate it's members to the BAofE So to be eligible for satellites I went directly to the BAofE and got an OnCourt membership. It may have changed since last year, I don't know, my new club does affiliate it's members so I haven't continued the OnCourt membership OnCourt did not make you eligible for Inter County Competition for Inter County you had to be a member through a club
Lost in first round at Berkshire in three sets. Was on court well over an hour, they had started some third round games before I had finished. It was good watching Suzanne and Lisa go through the ladies competition without the loss of a point! I like it when the Hampshire contingent don't get it all their own way - the sulky looks from some of their ladies when they see good opposition on the draw is priceless.
hull satellite anyone going to hull satellite this weekend ? i was wondering if anyone has any inside information on the draw
