7 Oct 2007:
We are currently looking for friendly matches for Men's Doubles (Division D-E). If you would like to play against us, please feel free to contact Kenneth on 9017-7089 or 2882-1092. To keep the match fairly simple, we are only looking for 3-4 pairs from each side, and play in a format similar to HKBA's Men's Doubles League. We don't mind travelling if you have courts available (Hopefully not too far away from Hong Kong East). If you could come to Hong Kong East, we have set aside courts in Nov 07 and early Dec 07 for friendly matches. It would be v. difficult for us to secure courts after that.

Please be noted that we will only have 2 courts for normal playing this coming Saturday 25 Oct 2003, because we have reserved one court for a celebrity match between "Mrs. Fan & son" Vs "Chan Po Chu & son". Those who don't mind sharing two courts with many people are encouraged to come. You can be a pure spectator of course. Depending on circumstances, we may restrict access to members only.
For the Hong Kong Badminton Open finals on 2 Nov 03 (1:30pm), I still have one ticket left ($90). If you want to buy that ticket please let me know (9017-7089).
As explained in my our last mail, we have a spare court on 2 Nov 2003 (Sunday) from 3pm to 6pm at CHAI WAN IGH. Since nobody indicates an interest in paying for that court, we will open it free of charge to all members. The only requirement is that you will need to come this Saturday to get the tickets and work out the shuttles sharing arrangement among other interested members (we will not supply shuttles this time). Thanks.

In the President's Cup match last Saturday, we lost to some quick and skillful teenagers by 3:0. On a more cheerful note, our voluntary coach, Mr. Chan, came first in the Sai Kung District men's singles competition (age group 55+). He will continue his quest for the Eastern District men's single title on 24 Aug. Simon Au-Yeung and Mr. Chan also successfully got through to the quarter finals in the Eastern District Men's Doubles competition (age group 35-44). They will be facing some very tough opponents this Sunday. Let's wish them luck.
Our next team match will be on 2 Nov 2003 against a team from Heng Fa Chuen.

4 Aug 2003:
Just to remind you all that there will be no badminton session this coming Saturday. Apart from that, our Saturday sessions will run without any break until April next year.
Our last session featuring one hour free tuition in court 3 for interested members proved to be rather chaotic. We have decided to postphone it for now. Our honorary and voluntary coach, Mr. Chan To Woo, will be happy to assist you in improving your skills in the area between two courts. You may need to wait in line of course. A big thank you to Mr. Chan.
Our club will start a new series of training sessions for children aged 8-11 from Nov 03 to Jan 04. There will be a trial on 1 November 2003 from 2pm-4pm at Island East Sports Centre and the best 18 will be admitted. Once admitted, there will be 10 training sessions every Saturday from 2pm-4pm at Island East Sports Centre. The coach is refered to us by HKBA and used to teach talented young players. Please let me know if your children is interested.

After two days of intense badminton competitions, our team came in third of the Men's Doubles League (Beginners' Division).
Our first match was against South China («nµØ�P|) on Saturday's evening. They are very strong and we lost to them by 8 games to 1. Wong Kam Wing and Lam Yan Kit secured one game and became our heros for the evening.
The next day, we needed to play Tung Fong (ªF¤è). We were tired after the match the day before and were in a huge disadvantageous position. Despite lossing 8 games to 1, the scores of the individual games were much closer. In a few games, we lost only by two points.
For the past four months, our team have played brilliantly and had a very strong team spirit. They deserve a big round of applause! We shall compete again next year, with more teams.
20 Jan 2003:

2) Chan To Wo/ Ng Chi Ching

3) Johnson Wong/ Raymond Fan
21:13(win) 21:12(win) 21:10(win)
By winning all three matches, we became the top of our group. We will compete again in April in the finals, in which there will only be 3 teams including us. So, worst come to worst, we will still be no.3. Well done team!
