John Culshaw Tournament

JOHN CULSHAW MEMORIAL TROPHY TOURNAMMENT

The Blackburn & District Badminton Association will once again be organising an annual charity badminton tournament in honour of the former Mayor of Accrington, John Culshaw.

This event will take place on Sunday 11th March 2012 commencing at 10am. It is open to any player whether registered with a badminton club or not. Teams can be a mix of players of all standards and clubs, however entrants are expected to know the rules of the game as this is a competitive event. The tournament is handicapped.

The event will be held at Hyndburn Sports Centre thanks to the generosity of the Hyndburn Borough Council, who has made these facilities available.

The tournament is made up of teams of four players (two ladies, two men) who play a total of 8 games in each match (two mixed and two levels games). Teams will play several of these matches throughout the day depending on the number of teams in each pool.

When applying for entry to the tournament, teams should give themselves a ‘team name’ and

advise the names of players, together with a contact telephone number.  An entry fee of £30 (£7.50 per player) will be collected on the day of the tournament.  Play will commence from 10am on the Sunday morning and it is hoped that the finals of the event will be completed by 5pm.  This is an enjoyable day where games will be played on a pools basis, meaning you will play lots of games against players of different standards. 

To make it easier to enter there are a number of ways in which you can enter, and entries are being accepted up to Sunday 26th February and can be made using the email below or ring 07957138914

Handicapped A & B Tournaments
Friday, 06 January 2012 16:02

 

Handicap A & B Tournaments
Date: 5th February 2012
Venue: Oakhill Academy
Time: 10-4pm
 
The Handicap A & B Tournaments are open to any player registered with the Blackburn Badminton League. The tournaments will be run on the same day and as such players can only play in either the Handicap A or the Handicap B tournament, not both. Players in division 1 can only enter the A tournament. Players in divisions 2 and 3 are able to enter either the A or B tournament. In each tournament, the following events will be available:
·         Ladies Singles
·         Men’s Singles
·         Ladies Doubles
·         Men’s Doubles
·         Mixed Doubles
 
The Management Committee have again decided to subsidise the tournaments this year in an effort to encourage you to attend. A ‘more you play, the less you pay’ policy has been decided upon and the fees are as follows:
 
To play in one event £4
To play in two events £7
To play in all three events £9
 
To enter the competition, email me with the following details; whether you are entering the Handicap A or B tournament, which events you wish to play in, which club you currently play for and your partners name if applicable. Alternatively, you can text/ ring me. The closing date is 29th January. Fees should be paid in advance unless prior agreement is arranged with me to pay on the day. Please make cheques payable to ‘Blackburn and District Badminton Association’. Please note if you book entry to the tournament and do not attend you are still liable to pay the entry fees.
In the event of there not being sufficient number of entries to run 2 tournaments, the tournaments will merge into 1- the Handicap A event. I will also attempt to ‘band’ the groups and arrange times to play particular events. This will avoid players waiting around for the full day. Therefore, it is important I have contact information for players so I can contact them the week before the event.
This is an ideal opportunity to support the Blackburn Badminton League and have fun!
