    You just return the tickets from them correct? Do you know their office hours? Do they open in weekends?

    I agree. Obviously your choice but lets support Canadian Badminton.

    No point in being upset at taufik. Honestly being on circuit and making a commitment to your country is of much more important then an exhibition. I'm sure their was no exact agreement, but maybe he will return in the future.

    i'm sure there was a verbal agreement. No way OBA would stick out their neck this far unless they got something certain. If u want a 20 page legal binding agreement, then the lawyer fees would eat up all the funds.

    Hopefully, there will be enough people who turn up so that the OBA will try to do this again with other international players :)

    i think OBA will do it again, this time is simply Taufik's fault. I think if OBA invite LCW or Peter Gade, they'll show up to Toronto.

    The OBA is not organizing this event. A certain individual is.
    And the OBA does not have the connections to get players such as Peter Gade and LCW. Taufik as well as other Indonesian players can be brought over for exhibition though because of the connection from Hariawan Hariawan

    It was about 80% full at the Humber College this evening & it was OK but Taufik would have been a completely different story.
