The U16 Section has been postponed until July, due to exams. It is hoped to hold these games as early as possible in July. Good Luck to everyone who has started in Summer Jobs and to those are doing examinations.

From Tuesday 3rd June, until Tuesday 8th July, there will be no Badminton because the Hall will be closed for renovations.

Everyone in the Club wishes Maria Moran a speedy recovery from her injured foot. Hopefully you will be back in action when the Hall re-opens Maria.
