    Thanks. :) The youtube video looks tempting.

    For others that haven't checked out the thread, there is a link to an animated badminton rally in the last post to the second thread. The action in the animation is rather realistic:eek:. Someone really put some effort into making the animation. If that can be transformed into a game, that should be awesome.

    Sorry I didn't recognise anyone, all the old C grade players I use to play against a few years ago didn't turn up.

    Vien, with all that hype you must be relieved to come back with a trophy.

    Actually Jackie told Anthony we were barred from future C grades right before the C grade final :(
    ... and he even gave us the shame on you shook of the head when we came collecting the winner's trophies ... he didnt even wanted to take a picture with us for the web site :rolleyes:

    ... i notice you only said i was "BANNED from playing C grade doubles" that still means i can enter D double, D single and C singles :D

    and you may not have watched our final but we did end up watching yours .. a good fast game .. tell Marray it was his fault you lost :p

    Nelson and Jason, whom we could claim as Titans since they do play at our club, but since JT sponsors them i recon he would have put it down as a JT win. :)

    It wasnt hype Ash .. it was expectation of greatness :)
    And now that i am the first C-Grade champion for 2009, i expect many to be looking up to me as a role model .. so let the hero worshiping begin :D

    My message to all the young badminton players out there, try hard to get into a lower grade and you too one day can be a trophy hunter champion ;)

    Like what Anthony said, we didnt know who they were but they gave us a bit of a scared early on taking a quick lead 0/7 i think.

    Then after catching up the game became pretty close with only 1 or 2 points different till we got a bit of a lead on them 25/19.
    Then they came back with a bit of run themself.
    In the end we ran over the top of them after trailing 27/28 to win 30/28.

    Is it me or you take pride is winning trophies from grades that are lower than what you play at? I prefer to keep my pride and win a A or B grade trophy then acting like 'Look at me i'm a A/B grade player with a C/D grade trophy'. I prefer money over a trophy anyday.
