Canada/Korea Exhibition @ Calgary Winter Club (March 14th)

[towbsss]

Might as well put this up here too...

Here is the flyer (.pdf file) from the Badminton Canada website:

From my knowledge, there should be 5 matches: 2 XD, 1 WS, 1 WD, 1 MD; and (I think) most of the Korean players are from Ra Kyung Min's company team (Enopi), and a couple from Kim Dong Moon's University Team/National Team. They are pretty much all doubles/mixed players too. And, no, there won't be any of the top players because they are duking it out at Swiss Open Super Series anyway

thanks for the notice towbsss. Isn't sad to have a vancouverian to come here to tell us about an Alberta badminton event, and no notices from calgary winter club or the Badminton Alberta. Even i know about the vancouver's racket rally before this KOR/CAN exhibition. I found out about kor/can exhibition from a badminton associate who i bumped into at the elevator of a building which we work in, on friday afternoon, ie, a day before.

kind a ripoff IMO. $35 to see some golden oldies and associates of the oldies that were exhibited here before already. It was only $15 back then. No lin dan killers PSH and LHI, no melon crushers LYD and LHJ, no JJS or madbad's heart throb HYH.

for 33$, one can get to see at racket rally of vancouver of current greats, live.

Yeah, what a rip-off

also to say, it was eggroll who graceously doughed me in on the previous exhibition. Where is my sugar daddy eggroll these days?

I thought Fairchild is also hosting a All-Star event in Richmond BC as well and Peter Gade will be there.

i know couple of badminton fans here are flying over to vancouver to watch the racket rally.

I dunno about you, but I thought it was cool to see a surprise cameo by Kim Dong Moon and Ra Kyung Min after so long

[dex]

Hi Towboss! How did the camp go?

[towbsss]

It's been a pretty good camp so far, but I anticipate some heavier training the following week cuz the exhibition is now over
