the two young Todt's just started college this week.

[Viper2005]

Yup, the Todts are in college, Andrew is actually in Irvine, in your neck of the woods. Andrew will probably play at UCI with Nick.

Lot of the juniors are starting college.

Anyone in the A-B level is welcome, we give handicap points. Donations are welcome too....:D The number of players is limited to 16, so first come first play.

If I were to play, I would need 10 points and I would still be donating. :p :D

Hey Mike you think i be good enough to play with you guys. all you guys are so good tho. I am little scare to challenge you guys.

[kwun]

you're a good player Maggie. but those guys are also pretty scary, why not ask for handicap points?

[Viper2005]

Just a couple things you need to consider.
1. Can you handle a power smash from Chandra, Radu, Mike or even Mona? For $200.00+, they won't hold back.
2. If you don't mind donating the $20.00 for the experience, then ask Mike.

I'd recommend just coming down on Saturday and watch the games first and then decide if you want to try it on Sunday.

Kwun, the POT will start around 8-10pm, Chandra, Jinsong, Lili coach till 8pm. If you come early, the players might play a couple practice games for the audience.

Maggie gets 15 points handicap....:D
Still probably can't win.....:D .....just kidding.

[MaggieHo]

that sound good, i want to get 15 points in advance or you guys call it donating or handicap point (per viper2005), you guys said A or B player can participate, am i fall in one of those. May be a boring game for the audience but i think i can try. Why not after i played the number one Mix dbl in U.S open. I feel some pressure from Viper(he always follow me around the badminton club haha...i know who u are..:D, thanks kwun for the head up, i know those player are kinda scary, i will prepare myself when i play them.

[kwun]

last time i was partnering with Jinsong against Kota/Mike, Jinsong took 90% of the shots and we still lost coz i sucked so bad... aye...

[Viper2005]

That must of been a fun game.:D
I'm sure Jinsong would of tried harder if you guys had 8+ handicap points to start.
