Anything else?: Personally, I haven't played in Oregon tournaments before. I've been the Portland Open 2009, and that didn't go so well....but thankfully, the University of Oregon Badminton Club wasn't a part of that. Make sure you take note that the cash prizes are in items, though, not cash.

On the website, you'll find the tournament entry form--be sure to check back on the UO Badminton blog for updates on their club! If you're in Oregon, make sure you join the club and continue to expand the badminton community! We all look forward to seeing you there!

Spread the word, and Good luck!
