Hmm? I have never seen the name Sakai Masayuki before but he is listed in the A-team..?

 

Interesting md match highlight between JR/mads and sato/kawamae noticed a lot of japanese supporters there too

Poor Megumi. There are only 6 places for singles in the A team. It's really competitive. Also, the players in the B team are very good. Like Nozomi Okuhara and Sayaka Takahashi. Japan is fast becoming a powerhouse in the world of badminton. But, at least, the B team players get to play in a beautiful city like Vienna.

 

?? The photo was taken only 6 months ago. At the school nationals in Okinawa last October. But she's probably at an age when her facial features are changing. Do you have her actual age and height?

 

if i am not mistaken, she was borne in 1992.

 

Same year as Misaki.

 

I mean August .

 

yes, I remember correctly, she is same age with Matusutomo.
Takahashi's birthdate is 29/7/1992.

 

Too bad she is no longer eligible for the world juniors this year .

Thanks for the video link. You managed again to find stuff that I can't . Just realised that they have at least two tournaments in a year, this one in March, and another in July/August. One of the bronze medallist from last year's July tournament, a certain Kimura (木村百花), is from Tomioka, a coastal town in Fukushima. Hope she is alright .

Takuma Ueda ....

 

Thanks again for the uploads (Nozomi) .

Takuma does look quite a little good looking .

 

Okay, now Takuma Ueda has officially joined Unisys.
Sayaka Sato is still remained independent.
Sayaka Takahashi has joined Sanyo.
Sayaka Takahashi has made a good decision to join Sanyo because Sanyo has a very good WS, haha...
Takuma Ueda should have joined NTT East.

 

A Hirose to spar will Sayaka have .

 

Er, which MS is in NTT East?

 

Kenichi Tago, Sato Shoji is also a very good MS.

 

Here's the music version for Reiko Shiota. Youtube sensored it... Pass around.
