    Thanks Chris, only by invitation and the club decision is by consensus (committee members) rather than just me to ensure all members happy.

    Welcoming samlai to BadmintonCentral !!!

    .
    Thanks for your reply Sam.

    It's been a long time since I've caught up with you. Perhaps it has been about 10 years now; when you first arrived in Melbourne, playing at MSAC.

    BTW, welcome to BadmintonCentral. :):):)

    How can I forget you, when I copied some of your Footwork in action? :D:D:D

    BTW, I have not seen Tanya-M (who introduced you to me) for a long, long time either.

    Anyway, I hope to catch up with you one day. :):):)

    You should do whole of Australia, if it's not too much trouble.

    Other states would be great. Probably a separate page for each state--there's not much point having Adelaide and Melbourne on the same page.

    It is better to have different thread titles for different states.

    Yes will do. It will have a submenu to choose your state. Maybe store a cookie to keep track of which state you have chosen so it doesn't ask you again.

    Ok you can now add the other States. It gets categorised by the Venue which has a Address - State field.
    e.g. So when you create a Session and pick a Venue in Sydney it will categorise the Session in Sydney. Very little testing has been done so email me if any issues

    Groups refusing BCers to play with them; These groups should not be included

    .
    And since we are at BadmintonCentral, I should think that some groups refusing BCers to play with them; these groups should not be included.

    Hey, there's also a small group that plays Wednesday nights, run by Alan and Sue Melbourne. It's in Essendon, from 8:30 to 10:00. Cost is $10.

    It's in a Church Hall / Gym near the corner of Buckley and Mt Alexander Rd. Enter carpark, and it's the building to the left of the outdoor tennis courts.

    Three courts, amount of players vary usually from 4-12. Generally if you're a B or C-Grade club player you should be able to get a few matches at that level, but generally it's just a very low key get-together. Low ceiling, average courts, but a good resource for the area on a night where usually you can't play anywhere else nearby.

    I would disagree. b33fy's resource is separate to BC. Some groups may refuse players as the standards are too disparate. I think that is reasonable.

    Even i have had a request declined in HK:) I think it's no problem.:)
