Things have naturally been a little quiet on the site over the past few months, since this is a badminton club website and no club badminton has been going on, but there’s a new season just around the corner, a committee meeting next week and we’ve had the AGM, so here’s some stuff to get things going again:
I’ve updated the club diary with the dates of the first club nights of season, but because I’m far too nice, here they are for your convenience:
- Monday 4th September
- Monday 11th September
- Monday 18th September
All at Lancaster & Morecambe College, natch. Please note that these are really team selection and practice evenings, and they will be busy. Club nights proper will start at Salt Ayre on Thursday 28th September and should happen every week. Since we now have 4 teams it is unlikely there will be any Monday club nights once matches commence (w/c 25th September), but you never know, as my 2 year old is fond of reminding me.
I’ll update the events diary with all the club matches as and when I get the fixtures list.
There’s a committee meeting next Thursday (17/08), so I’ll update the site with any news, announcements or royal commands from the chairman in the few days following. Look out in particular for a statement from the selectors, and maybe something from the social committee, who knows? One tidbit I did pick up (or possibly dreamt) is that the ‘C’ team ended up with promotion from the 5th after all, because of Salt Ayre dropping out of the league, but I’ll confirm this at the committee meeting. If this is true, we’ll have teams in the 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th this season, unless we can’t scrape together a ‘D’ team after all, in which case we’ll be fined and have teams in the 2nd, 3rd and 5th divisions.
But that’ll never happen.
