Because of the unavailability of all 3  men due to either injury or holiday’s Yarmouth Badminton Club enlisted the aid of 2 brothers, John and Andy Watson, to enable them to fullfill their fixture against Newport C last week.

Elder brother  John has filled in before this season, having learned his badminton playing casually at Freswwater Sports Centre on a Friday evening for about 4 years.

But younger brother Andy ,who used to be one of the islands top juniors,  hasn’t picked up a raquet for about 25 years.
