National Badminton Week is an incentive by Badminton Ireland to promote badminton in all areas of Ireland and to encourage as many people as possible to give badminton a try.
As part of National Badminton Week, Boyle Badminton Club will hold two free open nights at Boyle Sports Complex on Monday October 18th from 9.30pm to 11.30pm and Thursday October 21st from 9pm to 11pm.
For anyone who hasn't played before or for anyone who played years ago and would like to come in to give it a try we'd like to welcome you to the club to chat to our members and enjoy some light refreshments afterwards.

Loughglynn Open 2010
The new Roscommon County Badminton website has the flyer and entry form for this years Loughglynn Open available for download. The competition will run over Saturday 30th October for Juveniles and Sunday 31st October for Seniors.
In 2009 there were quite a few entries in Loughglynn from Boyle so hopefully this years competition will draw just as much interest.

Congratulations to the new County Committee on getting this site off the ground.

National Badminton Week : 16 - 24 October 2010
National Badminton Week is happening a little earlier this year from October 16 to October 24 which doesn't give us a huge amount of time to organise something.
We had a really good Open Night last year to play our part in the activities that were happening nationwide and we would be hoping to match if not better that success this year.
So can everyone get their thinking caps on and come up with some ideas to pitch to the committee so we can start to get preparations underway.
All suggestions gratefully received to boylebadminton@gmail.com or in person at the club on Monday or Thursday night!
Thanks,
Liz

First Night of the Season
We started back last night in Boyle Sports Complex and had a fantastic turnout for the first session of the season. I think there were 22 players signed in and quite a few were new to the club. It was a very encouraging start to this new year.
For anyone who didn't get back last night, we will continue to play on Monday nights from 9.30-11.30pm and on Thursdays from 9pm-11pm, coaching is offered for anyone who'd like to avail of it.
It was lovely to hear some of those who hadn't been there before say how much they loved meeting everyone and that they had thoroughly enjoyed the coaching and the badminton.
For those of us more seasoned players we realise how important it is to encourage our new members and spend some time getting to know them each night, we wouldn't have the successful club Boyle has become without them.

Only four more days and then we're back to business in Boyle....
Club resumes at 9.30pm on Monday night, 6th September. Our nights will be the same as before, Mondays from 9.30 - 11.30pm and Thursdays from 9 - 11pm.
Having closed out last season with our biggest membership for many years, three County titles, a Connaught title and a silver in All-Ireland Div 2, we have a great base to build from and so much to look forward to as a club....
