Don't forget that although Black Friday stampedes are over, Cyber Monday is JUST around the corner, and that means online stores are getting ready to have their digital shopping carts filling up for the holidays!
Make sure you do your research and look for some good Thanksgiving holiday deals online...it's never too late to stock up!

For those of you playing in the BCD+A Open Tournament 2010 , make sure you check tournament software to scout out your competition! Not only can you use it to look at the players you're going to be up against-- you can look up past tournaments and see how they've faired against earlier opponents. You can never be too prepared!
Here's a little preview to the T-shirt:
Here's another tip: (although it seems obvious, many people don't do it). Try watching a match of your favorite players before training and before your game. Not only will this keep you engaged in improving the way you play, but this will also pump you up to do your best at the tournament!
And be sure to make friends with your opponents--whether you win or you lose-- and other players as well. You'll never know what good tips they'll provide!

Seattle Badminton Club opening has been delayed, and they expect to open within the first two weeks of December, in time for the BCD+A.
Make sure you e-mail them to ensure your spot as a member so you can benefit from the awesome promotions they have going on!
If many of you have been exploring the various tabs that are on SBC's main website, then you should be excited about Wendy Carter, who will be the new Head Coach!
Excerpt from the website:
"The club’s head coach, Wendy Carter, represented Canada and was one of the top players in the world through the late 70s and early 80s – ranking as high as third in the world in Women’s Singles in 1978. She has a Level 4 Canadian Coaching Certification, and is currently the USA Badminton Region 4 Head Coach. Wendy has also coached the US Uber Cup Team and World Championship teams in recent years. As one of the highest qualified coaches in North America, Wendy Carter will lead the coaching staff in our club to provide professional services to players of all levels!"
Wendy's been quite famous in WA badminton history, and it's safe to say that many of us are excited to see her there!

I've also received a lot of questions regarding the drop-in fee at the new club.
To my knowledge, it goes like this:
Adult drop-in fee: $7.00 a day (tax included)
Seniors (60 and over), Junior (under 18) or Student (with valid student ID): $5.00 a day (tax included)
Renting courts are
$15.00 per hour + tax for Members
$18.00 per hour + tax for Non-Members
These are both for Non-Peak times, and reservations must be made 48 hours in advanced through e-mail or phone.
