Friendly match vs David Lloyd
We are looking for players within Hunters BC interested in playing in a friendly match against some ‘improving’ players being coached at David Lloyd in Coventry. Their coach has asked us for a team of similar level players who could give them a competitive yet friendly match.
Initial thoughts are a team of 2 men and 2 ladies. The match would consist of mens, ladies, and mixed doubles.
Steve will be canvassing for interested players on Thursday evening. Please speak to him for more information.
No badminton this week (16th September)
The school has an event and has cancelled our courts this week. Normal service resumes 23rd September. We’ve moved the social night to Thursday, so if you fancy a curry contact any of the committee using the Contact Us page.
Racket stall tonight
Pete Martin will be bringing his racket stall to club night tonight (2nd Sep). If you’re thinking about a new racket, you can try them out with no commitment.
Match Season and Friendlies
We are looking to field teams in the Rugby and District League when the league starts up again in late September. Teams willl be across the divisions, so if some competetive games there’s a chance for everyone to play. A sign-up sheet will be available at club night, or contact Simon (Match Secretary) using the Contact Us page. There is also the opportunity for friendly matches with other local teams before the league starts.
Social Night: Weds 15th September
Members are invited to our first social event in quite a while! We plan to go to Hill Murry Indian in Rugby for an evening meal on Wednesday 15th September. Please let Barbara know if you would like to come along, or you can email me matchsec@huntersbadminton.co.uk.
Club nights are turn up and play
Hunters club nights are every Thursday 8pm to 10pm. There’s no longer any need to book on the website, just turn up and play! Electronic payment is still preferred (£5 per session).
Badminton resumes from 20th May 2021
Hunters Badminton Club are pleased to announce that Thursday club nights will resume from 20th May at Harris Sports Centre.
For those that attended in September and October, we will be operating the same procedure as before:
- Attendees must book each session up to 24 hours in advance using the booking form on the website for each session.
- Payment is pay-per-play and to confirm your place, payment should be made when booking. Bank details are provided on your booking email.
- You will be advised your court and start time on Wednesday evening.
- Players must “bubble” on a single court and cannot move or switch courts once allocated.
- Masks must be worn when off court and the Covid procedures should be followed.
Booking for 20th May is open. We are expecting strong demand so please book early as places are limited to 18 and allocated first-come-first served.
No badminton until further notice
With the announcement that Rugby has been placed into Tier 3 restrictions, this prevents us from resuming club nights in December as hoped. We will keep you updated if anything changes.
Club night suspended
Following the announcement made by the Prime Minister on Saturday 31st October, Hunters Badminton is suspending club nights until further notice.
As the rules are set to take effect as of 00.01 on Thursday the 5th November this means our intended club night on the same day is cancelled; there is no final badminton session ahead of the restrictions unfortunately.
We are otherwise incredibly grateful for all for your support over the past two months; it has been great to see such an enthusiastic response to being able to play again and it’s a shame we’re curtailed again so soon.
From hereon we will update the website and email you once we know more. In the meantime, stay safe and we hope to see you playing again soon!
Thank you again for your support,
From all at Hunters Badminton
