Hey guys, I finished my 1st round junior YRDSB tourney @ Brother Andre early this afternoon. The schools that participated were MDHS, Father Michael McGivney, Town Centre Montessori, Middlefield, and Markville (Me!). Anyways we did fairly well, here were our results: Men's Singles: 1st Ladies' Singles: 3rd Men's Doubles: 3rd Ladies' Doubles: 2nd, 3rd Mixed Doubles: 1st, 3rd(me!) I wasn't on the team last year, but I know that we barely won any matches last year in round 2, so no one advanced to 3rd round. Hopefully that'll change this year... How'd your team do? (If you're in a team from YRDSB)
I'll tell you tomorow! I'm playing mix too, for St. Aug. Last year in grade 9, I made it to 5th place. Hopefully ill see you in round 2.............at my school!=P P.S. Our senior team is a powerhouse, everyone got 5th place and above exepct for one team........, one St. Aug 2. =P
I just finished my games, and I left early. Anyways, I played mix and got first place, first tiem ever a juniro st augustine team got first place!! For the finals, I was playing agaisnt..........St Aug mix team 2!!! We had a fun time makign each other run. Anyways, I'll keep you guys posted with the latest news........now i have to do hw :'(. P.S. UHS got first place boys doubles, 2nd place boys doubles, and st. aug got second place girls double. I'll try to make a mroe comprehensive list later.
Are you partners with Cheryl? I know her from Saturday school... Anyways the teams advancing from mixed doubles in our zone were Markville 1 and 2, McGivney 1, and Middlefield 1. I played against my own teammates in the finals too :O How long were your games?
Yep, she is my partner =P. Our games lasted.........i have no idea actually =P I will be facign the 4th place player from yoru district, either fmm or middlefield. See you at my school on monday!
I guess my school Trudeau did pretty good this year compared to last year. Here's our results: Boys Singles: 2nd Girls Singles: 2nd & 5th Girls Doubles: 4th Boys Doubles: 4th (That's me... my arm hurt too much for me to get 3rd ) Mixed Doubles: 4th Boys Doubles was UHS 2, UHS 1, STO 1, and PET 2. From my understanding, UHS 1 gave 1st place to UHS 2 because they wanted to play an extra game to miss class lol.
hey hey! i go to RICHMOND HILL HIGH SCHOOL and last year i played mixed...and got 3rd in the regionals or something..i think ..well anyways i got this fancy medal lol this year i am playing boys doubles! and our first tournament is TOMORROW at st theresa....i hope i can get first it that ting03
So funny... I found out that like 75% of my team did not have overgrips rofl. Only like 3 ppl including myself had them. Everyone else used the original grips that came with the racquet XD. UHS pretty much won 1st in every category except for mixed lol. Kenny, where's your gym located in your school? I don't wanna drive to my school only to be bussed back to your school when I could just walk straight to st. A .
Hey Trance, I know Kenneth from your seniors team too @ PET Outside of school, I train at Lees. Been playing badminton for about 1 1/2 year... My racquet is so s**tty....Yonex Carbonex 6000 lol, bought it for like 30 bucks.. Getting a new one though... Look out for me in the crowd, i'm an average chinese skinny dude with short black hair, orange yonex shoes.
Justin: Why would you want to know where the gym is located? It right inside the school....... or do you mean where my school is located? richievuong: training at lee's? Thats some tough stuff i see I've been playing for years and years in drop ins, learned through gettign ass kicked . Anyways, see you all on monday!
I'm not sure if this is the same tournament your talking about. Are you guys participating tomorrow at centenial college?
There are still many different tournaments goign on, but there is a chance that we will meet up in round 3. Most of the people here are from zone E and zone F, which includes, brother andre, father mcgiveny, st augustine, unionville hs, stouvill hs, markville, milliken, PET, Town center montessori and some other schools i forgot.
Kenny: I need to know the location of the gym inside your school because I'm gonna walk to your school in the morning for the tournament on monday richievuong: Cool, you know Kenneth. Man, you're so rich to train at Lee's lol. And why do you have such a bad racquet... You certainly have the money to get a much better one. And your description of short chinese guy with black hair is really vague rofl. I'm just gonna look at everybody's feet and look for orange Yonex shoes. I'll be the Chinese guy with black hair and glasses in the red Trudeau Trailblazer shirt.
Its located exactloy on the northside of the school...........middle north. I'll be the guy with a St. Aug badminton sweater, white shorts [playing mix.......wait theres two of us...oh well, ill be the crazy one jumping around
You guys going to that St Augustine tournament at the end of april? How does it work? Is it 25$ for all three events (mixed, singles, doubles) or 25$ for each event?
I forgot how much the fee was to enter, but the tournament fee + taxis were covered for our team fee, which was 45 bucks To advance to the round 2 tournament in St. Augustine next monday, you had to have placed in the top 4 in round 1 tournament in your respective zone and event. Oh yeah, I'll be wearing my black adidas sweater on that day, can't miss me
What about the tournament at St Augustine on April 29-May 1st, is that open to everyone even if you haven't made it to top 4 in that region? I didn't make the top 4 because the competetion for singles was pretty stiff.
What tournament is this you are talking about? The one we are talking about is the Round 2 of YRDAA Badminton basically York Region area schools. It isn't open.
