    Sun 29Jun:
    In total we had 12 players of which 8 are regulars + 4 from BC.

    We gave up an extra court (6-7pm) as there was an unexpected case of double booking which the CC have got themselves into. A large group of 12ppl (mostly women & children) managed to manually block book both courts for all Sundays 5-7pm from now till end of December 2008, with the exception of next Sunday which we have already booked ahead of time.

    Which brings us to this question: How does one manage to block book so as to block off we PA members from playing that particular timing? Sounds unfair to general members. I'm thinking of lodging a complaint [​IMG] but I need some feedback from you guys.

    Sun 06Jul at Thomson CC (5-8pm ct2) plus (6-7pm ct1): Will probably be full-house with 8~10 regulars + 2~4 BC. We're open for 2 more, preferably int/adv who dont mind playing wif low int but can inspire & make us Go4it.

    01-08) 8 regulars
    09-10) maybe 2 more regulars (not confirm)
    11) Jimmy
    12) Teck Leong
    13) ?
    14) ?

    Pls contact myself 90600699 to request last 2 places.

    In total we had 16 players (8 regulars + 8 guests). The extra 6-7pm court helped us a lot.

    /////\\\\\
    The public wont be able to play at Thomson CC on Sundays 5-7pm period for the rest of this year as SOKA have block-booked both courts for Badminton for Kids sessions till Dec2008.
    \\\\\/////

    Sun 13Jul (5-8pm c1) at Toa Payoh South CC
    Sun 20Jul (5-8pm c2) + (6-8pm c1) at Cairnhill CC

    Contact/sms Simon @90600699 to check if there are slots available for you.

    11) Teck Leong

    Please give me more details.

    Could anyone give me more information? I don't know where the courts are and how I go there? I'm Thai and I've been living in Singapore for 4 months.
    Thanks

    Your profile says you live at Novena, so I assume you know where Novena MRT station is. From there you can take the South bound train to Newton. Cairnhill CC is just behind the station exit point (near Newton Circus Food Centre).

    Since Wocdam can speak a little Thai, he's probably able to connect with you. He's driving so he can pick you up at your place and both of you can reach Cairnhill CC together. Pls contact me at 90600699 or PM Wocdam directly with your number.

    Sun 20Jul:
    In total we had 14 players (9 regulars + 5 guests).

    Sun 27Jul will be at Yio Chu Kang CC (4-6pm c1+c2).
    Location is at Ang Mo Kio St 61. If walking from Yio Chu Kang MRT station, cross Ang Mo Kio Ave 6 towards Blk 634. Cut thru this block and cross an open space car-park in the direction of Blk 627. You should see the CC from the open space car-park. Total time should not exceed 5min unless you got lost along the way.

    I'm expecting 16-18 players as we have 2 courts. Do contact me at 90600699 to check-in for this Sunday's games. May allow additional 5 players.
