After much preparation, the anticipated day finally arrived. Everybody was in great spirits arriving at the gym, with some in their team colors. Each participant received a gift bag upon check-in. A group picture of the participants and volunteers was taken for posterity, and with the blowing of the whistle, the tournament began. The tournament ended with the prize draws. Prizes ranged from racket bags to gift cards.

A total of nine (9) groups participated in a round-robin style tournament, one of which was a mixed doubles group.  Eventual winners in each group were awarded bronze and silver medals, with the first place winner a coveted gold trophy. The trophies and medals were presented during the tournament lunch.

The tournament lunch offered a choice of pork, chicken or vegetarian meals. A group of 8 lady members prepared a variety of desserts which were distributed to each table. To add to this feast were 175 treats that our Letty graciously donated to the tournament lunch.

To spice up the event, several prizes were raffled during the lunch hour. These included two badminton rackets. Everybody took something from this event. Some went home with treats, others with prizes, medals or trophies. And still others went home with the experience of having participated in a badminton tournament.

A special mention to ALL the volunteers here, and especially to Roger (our photographer/videographer) who put their hard work to make both the tournament and lunch social another successful event.

shuttlecockWhat a great event - kudos to the Badminton Executive.  A very well organized tournament was held in the morning by the tournament directors from the executive, with medals being given at the luncheon, organized by the social director from the same executive, with 160 members in attendance. After a wonderful luncheon which included dessert, coffee and tea, great door prizes were given out by our Society staff leader Kelli Tibbles, who later commented on what a great group this was.  WELL DONE BADMINTON EXECUTIVE.

A delightful awards luncheon was hosted  by this group at the Kirin restaurant at the end of August to celebrate a very successful year by the Snooker Group.  Awards were given to tournament winners, including best improved, best all-around sportsman, and winners of the coveted cup.  Dignitaries from the lower mainland and the President of the Society as well as the board liaison were in attendance, and the ever-present camaraderie of the group was evident to all lucky enough to be there to share in the festivities.

Approximately 40 participants and guests joined in to create a wonderful luncheon and much lively music to celebrate the end of their Spring Session.  This activity has grown so much this year, partly due to the enthusiasm of the Group's leaders and wonderful talent of the musicians.  They will convene again in the fall, and all are welcome.
