    Hi Chris,

    1. We will have one court only this Wednesday or for the rest of the sessions?

    2. We have only one court so can we reduce the total players to 8.

    33% of CCCers leave at or before 10:00pm

    .
    Hi nitiny,

    Clubs usually like to have 8 players when they play for 2-2.5 hours on 1 court.

    I think that when we play for 3.5 hours, it is OK to have 12 players.

    Besides, looking at the usual routine of our players, 33% of CCCers leave at or before 10:00pm.

    Hi nitiny,

    Clubs usually like to have 8 players when they play for 2-2.5 hours on 1 court.

    I think that when we play for 3.5 hours, it is OK to have 12 players.

    Besides, looking at the usual routine of our players, 33% of CCCers leave at or before 10:00pm.

    Chris,

    I think Nitin has a point there. 8 persons for 1 court is more reasonable. I think 12 persons on 1 court is too many.

    Working on the ratio, on a normal night, a 6.5hrs court time has 16 persons.
    So when there is only 3.5 hours, we should only have 8.6 persons.

    Can we reduce the number of person to 8 for next Wednesday?

    Perhaps we can organise to finish at 10:00pm

    .
    8 players wouldn't be able cover the costs for court hire and shuttlecocks played over 3.5 hours.

    Perhaps for 8 players, we can organise to finish at 10:00pm (because shuttlecock usage is reduced by about 30%.

    8 might also not allow all regular players to play.
    How about 10? Hopefully after 10 some other courts might be free..

    8 persons for 1 court is more reasonable (and easier to manage)

    .
    OK, we shall make the maximum number of players to 8 (for Wednesday 01-Feb-2012).

    It is also easier for us to manage our matches. However, we shall finish at 10:30pm.

    Matches shall be scheduled as follows:
    M1: 2 pairs to play
    M2: Next 2 pairs to play
    M3: Losers of M1 and M2
    M4: Winners of M1 and M2
    M5: Losers of M3 and M4
    M6: Winners of M3 and M4
    M7: Losers of M5 and M6
    M6: Winners of M5 and M6
    and so on............

    For other CCCers who read our discussion later, just click LIKE for this post if agreeing.

    In our next post, I shall make the correction to our Booking List.

    Can we exchange partners?

    .
    Some CCCers have asked if they can exchange partners.

    The answer is "YES".

    However, it is best to exchange partners only when the 4 scheduled players are called on to play.

    Example: When 2 pairs are scheduled to play, they can arrange between themselves who to partner who. And when that match is finished, the players will need to wait to see who will be the next 4 to play (in their next scheduled match) before they can swap partners again.

    This is the best way to swap partners without causing confusion to our scheduled matches.

    A message to Stanley-C: Are you OK?

    I just got home from after watching the Australian Open Mens Singles Semi-Finals. While watching, Lisa-L rang me saying she's worried about you.

    You and 3 others were to turn up at supper after your Badminton at MSAC, but you did not show up.

    Hope you are OK.

    Thanks Chris for posting the msg. Me and 2 others got worried if Stanley got robbed or something on the way... :eek:

    Finally got through Stanley C, he got cramp on his legs and couldn't find us in the shop..(maybe he went to the wrong shop) and his phone did not work. Fortunately he was fine
    :)

    So Duc and Cindy ended up taking home the Vegetarian and the whole Margherita pizza. Duc said he will give it to his neighbour. :D;) Cindy said to smack you when she see you next week :rolleyes:

    Goodbye to Hong!

    I will not be coming to MSAC on Wednesday due to work commitment.
    It was great to play with you Hong in the past month, on every Sunday and Wednesday.
    Wish you well with everything and have a safe trip back to UK.

    Regards,
    Lisa

    OK, we shall make the maximum number of players to 8 (for Wednesday 01-Feb-2012).

    It is also easier for us to manage our matches. However, we shall finish at 10:30pm.

    ================================================


    Hi CCCers,

    We shall start our Booking List for Wednesday CCC at MSAC: 01-Feb-2012

    Hope to have our 'Booking List' finalised by Tuesday 7:30am.

    We would like to have time;
    * To correct our Booking List when errors are made.

    Reminder:
    If unable to attend, kindly remove your name ASAP so that others can replace you.


    Please use the RESERVE LIST if unsure of attending, and then move up to the MAIN when sure.

    For any questions about our CCC Badminton Club, please post to ask here (in this thread). If you are new to BadmintonCentral and you are lost here, you can send an email to me.

    It's found that newer BCers do not know how to turn the pages of our thread. Just click on the page numbers found at the top or bottom section of this page.

    Many thanks for the post, very touched indeed :crying:. Didn't get robbed, but did get a a really bad cramp after when at the change room, was barely able to stretch it out and lambed to the front desk to find nobody there. Just so happened that I didn't have anyone of theirs phone number and did see Duc anywhere (he told me he would be waiting for us outside?!). Managed to get into the car and drive (lucky it wasn't my right leg that was acting up). Strage enough didn't see anyone at the shop when I got there and could feel the twitching in the muscle, so went home to get some ice. Is like a leaky roof often meets heavy rain, my phone out of service which I couldn't call you back lisa, for some strange reason (time for a phone upgrade). I just wish to send in my apologies to lisa, cindy and duc and my thanks to Chris.
