hello can anyone help? we are a small group of badminton players who are league/county squad standard from the south of England. We are looking to do a tournament anywhere in Europe, ideally a graded one of a reasonable standard. does anyone know of any? its very hard to find any details on google! Many thanks Adam
There is an open league in Bulgaria organized by Badminton Hall "Europe". It consists of 11 two-day tournaments throughout the year and has a prize pool of BGN 8,000. There are already several foreign players who compete regularly. There is strong Romanian and Israeli presence. The entry for each tournament costs BGN $30 and lets you participate in Doubles, Mixed Doubles and Singles. You gain league points for participating and winning games/matches. There are 4 divisions for each event according to the players' level (this one is pretty subjective and depends on both the registering player and the organizers' judgment). Wins in the different divisions award you different points. For example getting the gold in MS4 awards 1700 pts, while winning MS1 awards 5500 pts.
It would be cool to have regural tournaments in England, preferbly near Bristol Not sure if i would participate, cos im pretty bad at badminton, still learning. Will check it out for sure, if it happens!
