    Do you mean in Victoria .. or anywhere in Australia? ... and as far as i know, there is no other tournament for 2010 .. you'll have to wait till 2011 for the next tournament.

    this is the link to the badminton victoria's tournament calendar for 2011...
    http://hosting3.sportingpulse.com/w.../events/2010_Events/2011_Calendar_V_8__WE.pdf

    The first graded tournament for 2011 is the Ballarat Open & Graded sunday 6th of March.
    I got runner up in B single, and won B double with Anthony at Ballarat this year .. so will play those two events again .. if not lower :) ... you can do the Fat-Ashley thing and try and compete with me for the same trophies .. but be warn i've been known to take out opposition's left eye at the nets :p

    I will indeed try to stop your trophy hunting activities in Ballarat next year. Not only did I get a trophy and money voucher in Sydney but I had the pleasure of kicking your butt in the finals.:D

    Look forward to similar fun times next year.

    They won't let you play D grade in Ballarat, as I remember they have reserved D grade only for junior players.

    ... sorry eugene, i cant guarantee that Anthony and I will be staying away from D grade in 2011 :p ... its up to the tournament commitee .. cause we'll always try to get into the lowest grade we can .. its only fair since Anthony and i are getting older next year :)

    ... and its rare but fatAshley is right, Ballarat D grade is reserve for their junior only, but C grade in Ballarat is usually pretty weak, .. Ant and i will be playing in b again to try and give Anthony the 5 years in a row win in B there :)

    Yeah he stuck me up in A grade this year, so I protested by staying away:p I will enter again in 2011, and if he says A grade, then I might go in as someone else - a certain Nemesis player - YuTao :p

    aiming for 5 years in a row!

    HEY! no one is allowed to beat me and Vien at Ballarat in 2011 - its my 5th year anniversary of winning the B mens doubles and to take that away from a trophy hunter is just criminal:crying: Its almost tradition, even entering in the tournament is just a formality and the organisers have the trophy ready to hand to me as I walk in the door at the beginning of the day:)

    Ballarat is 4 months away, but i recon you've just got a few people rushing for thier 2011 diary or ecalendar and marking in Ballarat B grade for next year :p

    Why dont we get Ash to organise a Titans Tournament or even a JT Titans Tournament sometime between now and Ballarat ... and I'll help out with getting the trophies made :)

    Since we only have 4 courts at Glen Waverley .. why not just make it a doubles even only .. and have the differents grades start at different times.

    eg. 9:30am-12pm C double, 12-2:30pm B double, and 2:30 - 5pm A double

    and play it Sydney style .. double pairs can be of any gender .. and games best of two to 21 rally system, with points deciding the match if teams win one game each ... and if points tied then they'll have to play a 3rd and decider to 21 points swaping side at 11.

    Fatter and jollier than Santa Claus Ashley just email the following Titan Social ..

    Saturday 11 December - Open
    Saturday 18 December - Open
    Saturday 25 December - Closed
    Saturday 1 January - Closed
    Saturday 8 January - Closed



    Saturday 15 January - Open
    Saturday 22 January - Open
    Saturday 29 January - Open

    Reason given for why Titan would be closed on 25 Dec and 1, 8 Jan .. is that Ashley will be flying off to Japan in the pursuit of a perfessional career as a sumo wrestler in the super duper heavy weight division ............ we're all wishing you Good Luck with that pursuit Ashley .. may your big belly guide you to victory :)
