New website for the Windsor & Maidenhead Badminton League
|
Just a quick tip-of-the-hat to our friend Matt from Racketeers, who has put in a huge effort over the past couple of weeks creating a new website for the Windsor & Maidenhead League There's several clubs who play in the W&M league and this one, so it's great to have similar information online for both leagues |

2009/10 season
The new season gets underway soon, so I'll be adding all of the fixtures to the website shortly.
Club match secretaries should make sure I've been given a list of the club's fixtures before their matches start.

Engraving
Apologies for the shameless self-promotion... I have recently acquired an engraving machine, the plan being that it should save a bit of money over the coming years (all the various league, club and tournament trophies that I get engraved each year soon add up).
So, if any local clubs have a need for any engraving to be done (just simple stuff - I can't engrave around the edge of curved trophies or anything like that), then feel free to get in touch:

Best Pairs tables
Since the Best Pairs tables were adjusted to allow for players in a team-of-four to qualify, the rules to determine whether a pair should appear in the table have become more complicated.
In an attempt to help clarify this, the Best Pairs tables now have a link at the top-right that will allow you to see all of the pairs that have played in that division.

Website Changes
The BDBA website is currently undergoing various upgrades / improvements, so if you find that anything doesn't work it probably just means I'm in the middle of making some changes to it.
