This event was designed to emulate, at home, the experience that NBF players had enjoyed when travelling abroad to play in tournaments. It is therefore an intensive, competitive and enjoyable weekend of badminton which should stretch, develop and most likely hurt. The format is teams of four (2 men and 2 women) playing level and mixed doubles. Players may also enter individually and teams can be made up. Playing categories: B = Top league level to county 2nd team level, C = Middle to top league level. | ||
