Beginners luck. I demand an imaginary rematch.

nah; don't think there were any protestants in my local club. There were some who played hurling though.

guess what the fastest racquet sport in the world is ?
I'd be up for a game of it too , used to play a lot and looking to get to back into it

 

[Rachel666]

is squash not faster?wouldn't mind learning to play that.

im currently trying to locate a badminton club around dun laoghaire but have had no luck... i kinda want to play with fast people as opposed to the wagon fests i used to attend when i was livin in the country.

nope

So those who dismiss it as a genteel game involving delicate pats back and forth over a net could not be more wrong, even more so after recent events involving a major hotel chain accusing players of trashing their hotel rooms with behaviour more fitting of rock stars.

shuttlecock days and coke-fuelled nights on the badminton circuit!

 

[coast to coast]

i won a plate competition in badminston as a nipper. one of my only solo sporting successes.

football is better though.

 

[HMD]

I was one half of the Dun Laoghaire under 12's catholic badminton champions 1985.

 

[maims bond]

My Da thinks it's called Babbington.

Little did I know that Thumped had a veritable Badminton hall of fame among its members. I'm nearly finished my beginners course and will be playing some games over the summer. There is a thing starting on wednesday nights in Baldoyle (the national headquarters for Badminton ireland) the week after next where, if you've completed at least the beginners course or if you're returning to the game, you can just show up, pay €7 and the organise single and doubles games. If you ring the baldoyle bdaminton centre they'll tell you about it.

This actually sounds kinda fun.
Keep us posted on your progress, McRo.
