CCC members to understand what our club stands for.. . Greetings, A post was made in our Friday CCC@Waverley thread. It is regarding to our policies/objectives of our CCC Badminton Club. It is best to post it here as well. ====== * ====== start post ====== * ====== Yes, many CCC visitors have told us that we are a very different club from many other clubs. If only our visitors take time to read our policies, located at: click here , they will understand why CCC is different. In fact, I read it often so as to remind myself what we stand for. Just to remind ourselves of our policies, they are listed below: (1) To promote Badminton to as many new players in Melbourne as possible. (We are a Community Club, not a Private Group of players) (2) To look after all players, regardless of their skill levels. (We look after weaker players as well, not just the highly skilled ones) (3) To have participation as the key to the enjoyment of Badminton, not the winning or losing. (We look after Social players as well, not just the Competitive ones) (4) To prevent any segregation within our players. (We encourage our players to play with every other players, not to form cliques within CCC) (5) To select appropriate players for teams formation without bias/prejudice. (However, CCC members do have priorities over our CCC visitors) (6) To promote all 5 events, namely; (a) Mens Singles (b) Womens Singles (c) Mens Doubles (d) Womens Doubles, and (e) Mixed Doubles (When attendances are bigger, Doubles do have priorities over Singles) (7) To organise many different activities to entertain our players. (Here, we need event organisers to do the work. Now and then, many members are too busy to have time to organise activities) ====== * ====== end post ====== * ====== Cheers... chris@ccc .

Sorry to post here to occupy the public space. But Chris, your message box is exploded and can't send you messages anymore !!! ======================================================== Dear Chris, Thank you very much for introducing CCC to me and helped me fit in local badminton club when we just moved here. However, with my family life schedule, it's a bit difficult to cope with CCC schedule and location. After looking for alternatives for a period of time, I found better time which is much easier for me and the family. Therefore, I would like to let you know that I won't play with CCC as frequent as before and you may remove me from the CAT team list for your convenience on arrangement of games. Don't worry, I am not giving up playing badminton. Will continue playing because I do love playing badminton very much. Please take care and hope we can have the chance to play together again in the future. Best regards, Serena
