Cheers - With over 75 entries it will surely be a spectacular day.

It is pleasing to see entries coming from many of the local club players, whom apart from getting the chance to have some great games of badminton, will all be adding there support behind local talent, such as the likes of Vaughn Tovey, James Phillips and Joe Morgan when they go head-to-head against recent Oxford Satellite winner Paul Le Tocq and Devon County team members Tim Willis and Daniel Harris.

Spectators are more than welcome. So if you live close by to the brand new Cycling Velodrome down near Newport, then feel free to drop in to check out the action.
