I still cant believe that a badminton natiion like ours cant set up a league like they have in Gemany,Denmark,France etc where u have not only our own best players but other top players from other countrys competing over here regulary.Surely that would increase the popularity&profile of the sport&get more juniors seeing world class badminton week in week out giving them inspiration 2 want 2 go out there&do it themselves?
I know they had something in the pipeline afew years back&it fell through,but surely if other countrys with smaller budgets than we have can set it up then we can?

[Luncheon]

Have we got a bigger budget though?

Isn't all our money tied up by UK Sport who decide where things go? Thus making it difficult to spend a load of money on a project that nots guaranteed to work out.
