No Matches during the next four weeks
With members from almost 20 countries, we are probably the most international badminton club in the Flemish league. We have five teams in the mixed and level league competitions and regularly send large delegations to play in tournaments. On top of that, we have many keen casual players and an active and varied social life.
dear members,
the municipality informs me that an event will take place outside the sports hall on Sunday 26 September, which could cause parking problems.
the sports hall will of course remain open, but you may have to look for a parking space elsewhere.
parking is possible in the Marmotlaan.

AGM: It is the Annual General Meeting on Wednesday 22nd September! I recommend starting the AGM at 22:15 in the cafeteria. We still have to get that confirmed that it’s okay by the cafeteria owners. The nets and poles should be put away by 21:55 and everyone should be ready to begin the meeting. The agenda for this year’s AGM is attached to this newsletter. The minutes of the 2020 AGM were sent out in the previous newsletter.
A free drink will be offered to all attending members. What happens at the AGM?: There will be a summary of the 2020-2021 season, with a financial overview, a look at membership numbers, competitions etc. After the AGM has taken place, we would kindly ask you to pay your membership fee in a timely fashion. The committee is looking for someone to be in charge of club finances. Cathy has done many years of excellent service to the club and would like to step down so if someone could step up that would be great! Now is the time to think if you would like to join the Committee.
Interclubs: They are starting soon. If you’re signed up for competition, you should have received a Doodle poll by email by now to let the captains know your availabilities. The first match is Saturday 11th September, with our ‘Men’s 1’ team competing away.
Junior training will start on 8th September at the usual time of 19.30-21.00.
Adult training with Volker will restart in October. I have been in contact with him and he’s keen to get started again!
Shuttles are for sale at trainings. You can go for premium quality ones (Yonex 30) or for Yonex League-7, a cheaper training shuttle. Simply ask a committee member or team captain for pricing, and they will assist you. Shuttles are to be paid for by bank transfer to the account on the BIBC website. No cash.
Please take into account the current corona measures.
