Rising Stars Tournament Details

by Jonny - 0

The Rising Stars tournament is taking place Sunday 28th May at the Dolphin Leisure Centre, Haywards Heath, RH16 1 LY. Singles matches will commence at 9.30 and we ask that you arrive in enough time to be ready to go on court.  However, as we are using 7 courts and we have a number of singles events over a number of age groups, not everyone will play at 9.30, but once the tournament commences players will be expected to go on when they are called.  It is hoped that the Doubles events will start around 1300 but this will be dependant upon the length of the singles matches. In some events, where we have not got the requisite numbers to make up a

Mark Allen

It is with great sadness that I have to inform everyone of the passing of Mark Allen. Mark was a true champion of all things badminton especially Sussex Badminton, Mark was vice Chairman of the County for a number of years and officiating, Mark was the current Chairman of the  Badminton Umpires of England. Mark’s passion for the game was boundless.  It didn’t matter what level the game was being played at, be it local club or the Yonex All England, Mark’s love for the game always shone through. Personally I will greatly miss his common sense approach to badminton matters and the clarity that he brought to the many discussions that we had. As a County I would like to pass on our dearest thoughts to Maggie, Mark’s wife and his
