Highlights of 2009

As the end of the year is upon us it seems like a good time to remember some of the highlights of 2009 and there were a few.....

- April 2009: The Division 5 & 6 teams both competed in their

respective County Finals with Division 6 emerging victorious and

representing the County in the Connaught Finals in Galway.

- May 2009: The Division 3 team having won the Connaught title in

Galway went forward to represent in the All-Ireland Finals in Dublin in

May where they were narrowly defeated.

- Sept 2009: Having finished the season on such a high we came back in September to a club which was invigorated and revitalised with a major increase in new membership.

- Oct 2009: For National Badminton Week we held two Open Sessions, one for Seniors and one for Junior players. Both were hugely successful, better than we could have hoped for and as a result Boyle Junior Badminton Club commenced.

- Nov 2009: The club held a table quiz in the Moving Stairs which

was a great night and was really well supported.

Members of the club participated in Open Competitions in Trim, Co Meath and in Loughglynn and Boyle was very successful in both tournaments.

- Dec 2009: The Connaught Close for Division 5 & 6 was held in Castlebar and again Boyle players featured in the prize listings.

So fondly remembering 2009 we welcome 2010 and hope that an even longer list of highlights will feature this time next year!!
