lol is just Shaolin~XD

Anyone interested in playing U29 boys doubles with me?

Just wondering, how come the single category is U25, not U29? Is that intentional?

just a tad bit too old for U25, eh? :)

No, that U25 for singles is a mistake. I personally asked Cindy about it, and she confirmed with me that it's supposed to be U29.

So yes, chihong, you should definitely join and kick some butt.

it is hard to convince a U25 to be a youth...let alone U29...

Reach 35 and you'll be in the Masters Category. :eek:

And between 29 and 35 there are no restricted age tourneys to play. :D

You will have to scroll down to the bottom.

Looks like JChen99 & partner will face off against Smashingbird & partner in the first round of the U21 MD. :D :D

I didn't recognize any other BF'ers who would fall in the various age categories. Traum, TTT, Gryp, etc? Not playing?

Oh, I played. Just got my butt kicked, that's all. :D

(I started with the 3:30pm game near the bottom of the draw.)

I also played against AceKiller in the first round of U29 mens singles.

Haha... after the game... JChen99 decided he still SUCKS and need to practice MORE!

I know this thread is like 2 years ago. I personally go to this school. I never knew they had those tournaments. Cindy..do you know if windermere has those tournaments now? I remembered in grade 7 our school came to windermere for games sponsored by black knight I believe.

hello azn_123
Actually the Youth Week Tournament was held in Vancouver Technical in 2005 due to GYM scheduling. I am planning to hold one this year if the scheduling is right, but only for U19 , U16, and maybe U14.
