Hi,
I looking for a partner who is interested in playing mens doubles tournament at www.wpbadminton.co.uk in APRIL the entre dead line is 5,March so if you interested in a competative level please let me soon.

Hi Akife, I don't think I could commit to the tournament by the 5th march as I am having problems with my elbow and I want to give it a couple of weeks rest to see if it improves.

I noticed you live in East London. I work in Aldgate, so if you fancy a friendly game after work or at lunchtime in a few weeks let me know as there is a sports centre just behind Whitechapel station I can easily get to.

Same goes for anyone else who can get to Aldgate/Whitechapel

Sure my friend I like a good game of singles just let me know when you to play and hope your elbow gets better within week to come fun and competative game.

thank you

Akife

the problem is I don't want to committ to playing only to pull out if my elbow hasn't got any better.

have either of you played in this before? what is the standard like?

**Akife Dar** · 02-25-2006, 03:10 AM

Well my I can only say it a challenge me and I have been invited to it but I think there will be different levels of play in seniors, I don't main if we pull out because of your elbow as I want play just to have experience in tournament level and in enjoy it as much
as I can.

Also my friend if you go to www.centralsports.co.uk then go press badminton you find a arm support brace for sell which help people with tennis elbow.

Hi Akife, I don't really want to wear a brace as that i just putting off the problem for another day. At some point I will need to rest my elbow and I would prefer it to be now when the problem is a minor one. I'm going to play a little tomorrow and then again on Friday and hopefully it will be better.

Maybe we can organise a friendly (ie not intense!) game of doubles soon?

**Carl.S** · 02-27-2006, 07:15 AM

Well I would have been interested but as far as I know I am going to be umpiring on that day.......unfortunately I also cant commit by the 5th march as I wont find out if the umpiring is still going ahead until the end of march.

Would like to get back into tournaments again.....any other tournaments lined up in the future??

**Akife Dar** · 02-27-2006, 12:15 PM

Yes I would like to entre other tournaments in future for singles or double as I always want to test my skills to a compatitive level as I had coaching from LEE JAE BORK for one year at his academy and he wants me to entre tournaments.

thank you

Akife
