    Ot oh , from Badminton Victoria we have been officially sanctioned:crying::

    [FONT=&quot]"The Organising Committee of the 2009 Victorian Graded Championships have to advise you may only enter the A/B Grade Men's Doubles competition. The committee judged your playing level to be too high for C/D Grade.[/FONT]"

    It sounds like a complement, but no more trophy hunting....in Victoria:D Watch out Tasmania, NSW, SA, WA, QLD, NT, ACT-- C grade trophies we are coming for you!!

    Why do I get the feeling that the reason you guys got into trouble is because of all your postings here in BC. ;)

    Hello my two headed southern friend, good to know that even in a backward inbred state like Tasmania they still know how to play a good sport like badminton.
    We here in Victoria also use goose feather, infact i can't remember when i last use feather of another bird specie ... would have to have been epsilon red or yellow or green which was duck feather .. but this would have been back in 2002 before global warming :)

    Even if you're a 19yo Hot Sexy Chick you'll still not always be safe from The A.s.h.m.i.n.a.t.o.r ....

    Remember that hot chick that came with her brother, he kick her out before i had a chance to work my magic :D ... still steaming about that Ash .. going to take alot of azz kissing from you for me to forgive ... and i didnt mean that metaphorically ;)

    The irony was that some of the guys he allow to stay and play were actually weaker then that girl and her brother. I've seen them playing at Altona and Albert Park the girls pretty strong, A grade there, but maybe C or B grade at Titan.

    The key to sneaking into Titan if you're not that strong of a player is to avoid Ashley, when he get on court , wait for the next game :)
    Its easy to recognise him he has one distinguishing feature, abnormally large forearms ... and with he thick glasses, he look alot like Popeye the sailor geek :D

    Hi Valmetf4, don't worry too much about VienB's comments. Not everyone in Victoria is as rude as VienB. If you every get a chance to come to Melbourne, I will hold VienB and you can hit him. Although I may need another person as my popeye arms are not large enough for VienB's pot belly.

    We currently use SeaLion. But depending on price and quality we may also use RSL, Victor or Aeroplane brands. Costs vary but expect to pay $24-$28 per tube. Like VienB said we only use goose feather because they are more reliable in flight and durability. I have from time to time imported shuttles myself, but quality varies and found it best to check the shuttles myself before sending it back to Australia.

    Shy, just stay away from that Ashley person and you should be OK. Hope you didn't get banned from the other club for saying nothing.

    They were both clearly beginners. They were very nice people but this is Titans Badminton Club, not Titans Nice People Can Stay Club.

    Everytime I have to tell people the good err.. I mean bad news, I feel bad, like I am saying goodbye to a friend. But I get over it after a minute or so :D

    In that case you should gently break the bad news to yourself Ash :D.
    Hope your not using yourself as the grading barometer, cause that would mean the bar is touching the ground :p ... Mr Ballarat C Grade Mix ... not even i sink that low ;)

    Didn't you play C grade mixed doubles with Xue (Open Grade) ? If I remember correctly you played the front female position, cause Xue was stronger. ;)
