I need YOUR help!

Hi everyone , on Tuesday night I expressed as web admin and press officer for the IWBA The need for correspondence from you guys on league results and some snippits of info about the games to give the writeups a bit of depth… I aim to upload these nightly the following day with an added weekly write up about the general goings on that you have all written into me with.

Following the recent AGM I have decided to create an email address for you all to write into with this info but you can of course contact me on WhatsApp – .07957338438. The email is as follows

Iowba.pressofficer@gmail.com

and all of this same information is available here alsoHttps://www.wightbadminton.co.uk/committee/

That being said I am in a voluntary role and these are aims I will endeavour to keep up with however it all relies long you guys too. I cant be everywhere, as much as id love to be. This is a crucial step towards growing Isle of Wight Badminton and running a stable and renewable association. Thank you all for taking the time to read this, and please dont hesitate to ask questions or place suggestions 👌 Let’s build IOW Badminton back to its former glory

Difficult games for the IoW Team, but a result to be proud of. Facing a Team who have not dropped a game all season.

The Year Ahead.

(So Far)

Following the recent management meeting i have some updates.

League Secretary (Clayton Simpson) has published the league fixtures for this season. Vectis have had to change their home games to Fridays with a start time of 18:30.

The first round of The Mallet Cup will be held the week commencing Sunday the 11th of February. clayton will contact club secretaries requesting names of pairs in strength order so that the handicapping committee can begin gathering information on the players.

The first round of The Mallet Cup was drawn.

Freshwater V Westland

Newport V BCA

Wroxall V Ryde B

The semi final of The Mallet Cup will be held on Friday 12th April and the finals on Friday the 19th April. the venue will be confirmed at the next meeting. (Tuesday 6th February) Following a discussion it was decided that the cost of the Semi’s (Hall hire and Shuttles) will be shared between the 2 participating teams and the Finals will be paid for By the Association. We ask that ALL League and Mallet Cup trophies be returned to Clayton ASAP. You can find his contact information on the Committee Page.

I spoke about advertising Badminton better on the Island, Flyers, photography, etc. This being said I will be publishing events ahead of time, hopefully giving the general public enough notice to pop in and watch some games, hopefully further driving the sports popularity.

There will soon be a further post in the County Badminton section with information about the goings on with all county teams.

League Badminton Is Back!

League will start shortly after the New Year! If you’d like to play please contact your club secretary as soon as possible. If you however don’t belong to a club and would like to find out who is playing where and get involved please see our Clubs page.

Please get your names in ASAP as the number of teams in each club have to be in by the 17th of December.
