    Hi,

    I am new to this forum. Was wondering how I could book myself in for the game? Not really sure how the quote buttons work.

    Welcoming vernsheng to CCC at BadmintonCentral !!!

    .

    Hi vernsheng,

    Welcome to CCC at BadmintonCentral !!! :):):)

    We have booked you in. When you attend the session, I shall explain/show you how to book yourself him.

    Below, we are also correcting Stanley-C's post (which was posted about the same time as Alex-T's post) removing Alex-T's entry.

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


    Hi CCCers,

    We shall start our Booking List for Wednesday CCC at MSAC: 06-Feb-2013

    It's our 251st Wednesday Social Session at MSAC (after we have moved here permanently); and it's our 6th for 2013.

    We do a Booking List:
    (1) To welcome BadmintonCentral members to attend.
    (2) To ensure that players who have booked in would not be turned away.
    (3) To ensure that we have enough games for all players, it is best not to exceed 18 players.
    Hope to have our 'Booking List' finalised by Tuesday 7:30pm (24 hours before). MSAC requires us to confirm our court-booking 24 hours before.

    Reminder:
    If you cannot attend, you will need to be removed before 4:30pm on Wednesday, otherwise you will be charged.
    Why? Because there are CCCers who are wishing to attend (checking to book in - up to the last hours) have found themselves missing out after we have FULL HOUSE.


    For any questions about our CCC Badminton Club, please post to ask here (in this thread).

    Fair enough, but then your point completely missed the mark of why I was suggesting to play with either one of my friends.

    See you Wednesday.

    Albert Park Badminton Club is playing at the same time as CCC Badminton Club

    .
    Just a reminder:

    On the same (Wednesday) night, APBC, Albert Park Badminton Club, our sister club, is playing on different courts (Court No.1 to 4). They do not have a 'Booking List'; They use the 'First come, first serve' basis. They set their maximum number of players to 36 players. If you are the 37th player to arrive, you will be sent home.

    CCC Badminton Club sets our maximum number of players to 18 players; Nobody gets sent home if you arrive late, if having booked in. However, if you are booked in but later couldn't attend, you will be charged the session fee (for preventing other CCCers to attend).

    Other differences are;

    * Albert Park Badminton Club plays to 10:00pm; CCC Badminton Club plays to 11:00pm.
    * Albert Park Badminton Club organisers arrange matches for players (playing socially); CCC Badminton Club has a mini competition (our players follow our 'CCC Social Challenge Matches). For new BCers wondering how we arrange our 'CCC Social Challenge Matches, we shall post it below;

    Our "CCC Social Challenge Matches": The terms used and the schedule are;

    1. Terms used:

    1.1 Qualification Match = Your first match.

    1.2 Challenge Matches = Your later matches.

    1.3 Schedule Match = Your next match, after players waiting before you have played.


    2. Schedule of our Matches:

    2.1 Before starting, first find a partner. For players looking for partners, please don't be shy to post in this thread asking for partners. We now have a Partnership List at the bottom of the Booking List.

    2.2 If no partner is found/absent, then see chris-ccc.

    2.3 With set (limited) number of participants, we should have a quick turn-over of matches. Therefore, warm-up hits are only permitted for Qualification Matches; There shall be no warm-up for Challenge Matches.

    2.4 After your Qualification Matches, there should be winners and losers awaiting to play in the next scheduled match (the Challenge Match). As scheduled and when players enter onto the court, the 4 players may exchange partners if they wish (in other words only amongst the 4 winners, or only amongst the 4 losers). If a winner is to partner a loser, we don't know how to name your pair (as a winning or a losing pair).

    2.5 The shuttlecock being placed under the net in the middle of the court is for the next scheduled match

    2.6 Court No.10 is used for losers' Challenge Matches.

    2.7 Court No.11 is used for winners' Challenge Matches.

    2.8 After your match, please remember to place a shuttlecock under the net in the middle of the court for the next scheduled match.

    CCC has a system to not to offend weaker pairs/players

    .
    You are trying to play as how you like to do it (with your friends).

    But CCC has a system as to not to offend weaker pairs/players.

    Please realise the difference in our opinions.

    CCC is a registered club (with stated rules to follow)

    .
    Clubs usually have rules to follow, because paying members wish to know how the club is run.

    I am here to inform our CCC visitors.

    Casual group of players usually don't have rules to follow; It's because they are an informal group of friends (with no membership necessary) playing together. CCC is a registered club. Therefore, we need to state and follow our club's rules.

    Chris will arrange your partner on the spot depending on whoever is there without partner.

    Our CCC's rules are strict and firm

    .
    Thanking amiguy for answering -Likz's questions. There is no problem for CCCers to turn up without partners; because partnership can be arranged during our session.

    Although our CCC's rules are strict and firm, we are quite an easy-going club, with a friendly atmosphere. Our club's rules are strict and firm because we wish to manage the following;

    * To avoid stronger players degrading/belittling weaker players. Why? Because we welcome players of different skills to play with us.

    * To avoid players (attending with their own group of friends) playing only amongst themselves. Why? Because if they only wish to play amongst themselves, they might as well book their own courts to play.

    * To avoid 'not shy' players to keep playing non-stop, so we have a schedule for our matches. Why? We do not wish for our 'shy' players having less games to play.

    * etc, etc, ......

    Our CCCer, Eddie-Y, is also coaching at the same school with me.

    .
    By the way, when I went to conduct coaching at school yesterday (Tue 05-Feb-2013), I found our CCCer, Eddie-Y, was also coaching there (but for a different team).

    It's great to find Eddie having a coaching job there too. :):):)

    Wednesday CCC at MSAC: 06-Feb-2013 (A short report)

    .
    Wednesday CCC at MSAC: 06-Feb-2013 (A short report)

    * It's our 251st Wednesday Social Session at MSAC (after we have moved here permanently); and it's our 6th for this year.

    * We thank CCCers for removing themselves when they couldn't attend, therefore allowing other CCCers to join in. As you know by now, if you have booked in and did not turn up, you will be fined the session fee (because you have prevented others from taking your place).

    * We welcomed 3 new players;
    1. -Likz- (New BCer)
    2. vernsheng (New BCer)
    3. Rob-M (Daniel-s' friend)
    Hope that they enjoyed playing with us.

    * Kat-R said she booked in, but we couldn't find her post. Perhaps, her post is being held to be moderated. :):):) Luckily we didn't closed off (because of having FULL HOUSE).

    * Our current Summer Season (Dec-Feb) Membership List is below;
    1. Markus-H
    2. Daisy-L
    3. Brendan-L
