What a Night!

Last night, Thursday 29th October, we had our Open Night at the Complex as part of National Badminton Week, it was even better than we could have expected!

We had quite a few visitors who came up to see what we are all about and they really enjoyed themselves. Everyone had an opportunity to chat and sometimes there was even a spot of badminton played....with help from our existing members, our visitors were given a taste of the game, it's rules and the scoring system.

Padraic, the Club Captain, offered a coaching session for about half an hour during the night which incorporated some fun exercises to get everyone moving around the court and hitting the shuttle.

Before we finished we enjoyed tea, coffee and biccies. It was great to catch up with people who hadn't played for many years and a couple who hadn't ever played and even better to hear them talk about coming back for more!

A huge thank you to all the club members who were there last night for making the night the success it was and for the welcome and encouragement our visitors received.
