Dear all,

Earlier this month we sent out a survey on what you think of the club and any fresh, cool ideas you may have to continue to make the club a great place for you.

We had a good level of response and some really interesting ideas!! As a result of that, we are going to try a couple of new things in the upcoming months:

Winners-Stay-On court

One of the 4 courts will be dedicated for some competitive fun.  This will give uninterrupted time for people to have challenging games with others with similar level.  It will be the first court as you enter the sports hall, and it will be clearly labelled ‘Winners-Stay-On court’.

Practice and Drills

For the first 15 minutes of each session, we will be using one of the courts (far left) to do drills for anyone who wishes to work on something in their game. So if you need someone to launch out a series of shuttles, Thomas (our assistant organiser) will be on the far court with a box of shuttles to help you practice that shot you've been trying to perfect.

If you are also interested in helping out with the volunteer coaching (just for the first 15 minutes of the session), which is a great way of giving back and helping others, please drop me a quick email  (and we will also offer a ‘thank you’ rate of £4 for each session you coach in return for your help).

We will also start investigating some formal coach sessions for all levels, as people have expressed interest in improving their games. (You will hear more details as we investigate the availability of the sports hall and a professional coach).

More ideas on the way

There are more new ideas on the way, so watch the space…!

Thanks again for your continued support, we look forward to many more fun times with you.

Grace & Thomas
