    The NBL format takes the sport of badminton, traditionally an individual sport, and lets men and women compete in a co-ed team format. Multiple games are played in men's singles, men's doubles, women's singles, women's doubles and mixed doubles. Each game won is a point in the total team score in the best-of-nine point format. In keeping with the co-ed emphasis of the NBL format, mixed doubles is always played as the final event.

    The San Gabriel Valley Badminton Club is located at 9255 Telstar Avenue in El Monte, California. The NBL Pro Classic begins at 6:30 pm on Monday, July 6. Admission is $12.00 for adults and $8.00 for anyone age 18 and under with identification. For more information, visit www.NBLbadminton.com
