THERE ARE 45 EVENTS, AND DIV 1,2 & 3 MEN'S SINGLES AND DOUBLES HAVE A VERY BIG ENTRY. DUE TO THE LARGE NUMBER OF MATCHES WE ARE UNABLE TO PLAY THE BEST OF 3 GAMES AS WE DID LAST YEAR. WE WOULD NEED 3DAYS TO COMPLETE THE TOURNAMENT. AFTER CONSULTING THE REFEREE AND THE COMMITTEE WE HAVE DECIDED TO PLAY 1GAME TO 21 AND PLAY BEST OF 3 IN THE SEMI & FINALS. THE GAMES WILL BE MOVING VERY FAST SO MAKE SURE YOU ARE READY TO PLAY WHEN CALLED. WE WILL BE PLAYING THE SEMI AND FINALS AT APPROX: 1PM SO IF YOU KNOW ANYBODY WHO WOULD LIKE TO WATCH THE FINALS LET THEM KNOW. HERE ARE YOUR FIRST TIMES.

JUST A REMINDER THAT ENTRIES WILL CLOSE ON SUNDAY 8TH JULY (NOT LONG TO GO) SO GET YOUR ENTRIES IN SOON. DON'T FORGET TO LEAVE BOTH DAYS FREE AS THIS IS A TWO DAY TOURNAMENT. LAST YEAR SOME PLAYERS DID NOT BOTHER TO COME BACK ON THE SUNDAY BECAUSE THEIR IDEA WAS, IF I CANT WIN WHY BOTHER TURNING UP ON THE SUNDAY, PLEASE CONSIDER THE PLAYERS WHO MAKE THE EFFORT TO TURN UP ONLY TO FIND THEY DID NOT HAVE A MATCH AS THEIR OPPONENTS DID NOT TURN UP. THIS COULD ALSO EFFECT THE OUTCOME OF THE FINAL RESULTS. SO PLEASE MAKE THE EFFORT, OR DON'T ENTER IF YOU ARE NOT AVAILABLE FOR BOTH DAYS.
20/05/2007
FUTURESTARS BADMINTON CHAMPIONSHIPS IS ONLY A SHORT TIME AWAY & I HAVE THE ENTRY FORMS READY SO GET CRACKING AND START LOOKING FOR PARTNERS AND MAKE SURE YOU LEAVE BOTH DAYS JULY 21ST & 22ND FREE BECAUSE PLAY WILL BE ON BOTH DAYS. PASS THE WORD AROUND AND GET AS MANY OF YOUR FRIENDS TO ENTER AND LETS MAKE THIS A WEEKEND TO REMEMBER.
GET YOUR ENTRY FORM HERE. FRONT PAGE BACK PAGE

IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME SINCE I HAD ANY UPDATES ON MY SITE SO HOPEFULLY NO ONE MISSED ME. MY HARD DRIVE CRASHED ON CHRISTMAS EVE SO I'VE HAD TO START FROM SCRATCH. ALL IS BACK TO NORMAL IN TIME FOR FUTURESTARS BADMINTON CHAMPIONSHIPS 2007.
I DON'T KNOW IF ANY OF YOU HAVE BEEN BACK TO KINGSWAY STADIUM SINCE THE NEW YEAR, BUT I GO THERE EVERY MONDAY NIGHT AND LATELY THURSDAY NIGHTS AS WELL. I FEEL LIKE I'M IN A COMPLETELY NEW STADIUM, ALL THE COURTS ARE BEING USED & A LOT OF NEW FACES AS WELL. (THE STADIUM IS NOW IN CONTROL OF WANNEROO SHIRE & THE FIRST THING THEY DID WAS DROP THE PRICE FOR COURT HIRE.) THE TRANSFORMATION HAS BEEN IMMEDIATE.
IT GOES TO SHOW, MANAGEMENT OF BAWA WANTED 100% OF NOTHING, INSTEAD OF 10% OF SOMETHING. IT IS SUCH A SHAME THAT DUE TO POOR MANAGEMENT THE BADMINTON COMMUNITY OF WA HAVE LOST OUT. I COULD SAY A LOT MORE, BUT I DON'T THINK IT WOULD SERVE ANY PURPOSE. SO FOR SOME GOOD NEWS.
FUTURESTARS BADMINTON CHAMPIONSHIPS 2007 IS NOW IN THE PLANNING STAGE & I AM ON THE LOOKOUT FOR A COUPLE OF PEOPLE WHO DO NOT LIKE PLAYING TOURNAMENTS TO RUN THE MATCH DESK. NO PREVIOUS EXPERIENCE IS NECESSARY. THIS IS BECAUSE THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN HELPING ME IN THE PAST, INCLUDING MYSELF, LOVE TO PLAY & IT IS NOT MUCH FUN HAVING TO MISS THE ONLY TOURNAMENT IN PERTH. IF YOU ARE INTERESTED OR KNOW SOMEONE WHO MIGHT BE, CONTACT ME PLEASE.
24/12/2006
MERRY CHRISTMAS & A HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL MY FRIENDS AND VISITORS. THE COMMITTEE FROM FUTURESTARS BADMINTON CHAMPIONSHIPS WOULD LIKE TO WISH ALL OUR SUPPORTERS A MERRY CHRISTMAS & A HAPPY NEW YEAR.
I HOPE ALL OF YOU ARE LOOKING FORWARD TO OUR TOURNAMENT IN 2007 JUST AS I AM. STAY TUNED, PLANNING STARTS IN THE NEW YEAR.

SOME OF THE PHOTOS TAKEN AT THE TOURNAMENT CAN BE VIEWED HERE.
9/8/2006
FOR THOSE WHO ARE INTERESTED, THIS YEAR WE PAYED OUT OVER $2000 IN PRIZE MONEY. I'M HOPING TO SEE AN INCREASE NEXT YEAR AND THAT'S NOT PIE IN THE SKY. WELL DONE TO ALL WHO PLAYED A PART IN MAKING THIS HAPPEN. LETS KEEP THIS A TOURNAMENT BY THE PLAYERS FOR THE PLAYERS...........
7/8/2006
I AM ON THE LOOKOUT FOR PEOPLE (3 or 4) WHO LOVE BADMINTON BUT ARE NOT INTERESTED IN PLAYING TOURNAMENTS TO RUN MY MATCH DESK. THE CURRENT LADIES WHO HELP ME OUT, INCLUDING ME, LOVE PLAYING TOURNAMENTS, BUT ANYONE WHO HAS EVER RUN A TOURNAMENT WILL KNOW THAT RUNNING A TOURNAMENT & PLAYING AT THE SAME TIME IS VERY DIFFICULT.
NO PREVIOUS EXPERIENCE IS NECESSARY AS EVERYTHING WILL BE DONE. YOU WILL ONLY HAVE TO CALL OUT THE GAMES AS SCHEDULED, AND RECORD THE SCORE FROM THE INCOMING SCORE SHEETS.
I'M GOING TO BE AWAY FOR A FEW WEEKS STARTING 21ST AUGUST, SO ANY FOLLOW UP WILL BE DONE WHEN I GET BACK.
24/07/2006
WELL FOLKS THE FUTURESTARS WA BADMINTON CHAMPIONSHIPS IS OVER FOR ANOTHER YEAR. ZHANG AILING & I HOPE ALL OF YOU HAD A WONDERFUL TIME, ENJOYED THE COMPETITIVE GAMES & THE ENDLESS GIFTS AND PRIZES THAT WERE GIVEN AWAY. AFTER THE ENDLESS NUMBER OF SLEEPLESS NIGHTS WORRYING IF WE HAD EVERYTHING COVERED IT WAS NICE TO FINALLY BE ABLE TO RELAX AND SAY WELL DONE.
A LOT OF YOU CAME FORWARD TO SAY WHAT A GREAT TIME YOU HAD AND SAY THANK YOU, WHILE OTHERS WANTED TO KNOW WHY WE DON'T HAVE MORE THAN ONE TOURNAMENT A YEAR. ALL WE CAN SAY AT THIS TIME IS LET'S GET OVER THIS ONE FIRST.
THANKS TO ALL OUR SPONSORS WITHOUT WHOM WE COULD NOT HAVE PUT UP SUCH A GOOD SHOW. I WILL BE SENDING OUT A SPECIAL THANK YOU TO ALL OF THEM. THE RESULTS ARE AS FOLLOWS......

Well people we are not far off the big weekend. We have a very big entry with a total of 320 matches to get through. I need everyone to help out by getting on court and commencing play as soon as possible so we can all go home early. The committee felt it better to play late Saturday & Sunday so we can all have a day's rest on Monday. Good luck to all of you with your games, most importantly have fun. Spare a thought for me on the side lines unable to play due to an injury, when I love this game so much.
5/05/2005
Entry Forms are starting to come through now. There are only a few days left before the closing Date(18th May) so hurry and get your Entry Form in so you don't miss out.

18/04/2005

I WAS VERY SAD TO HEAR THAT MY OLD MATE KIM ONG TAY FORMERLY OF VICTOR SPORTS INTERNATIONAL PASSED AWAY ON TUESDAY 7/12/04. KIM WAS WELL KNOWN AROUND PERTH BY THE BADMINTON COMMUNITY, NOT ONLY FOR HIS SHUTTLES AND RACQUETS BUT ALSO AS A FRIEND. OUR DEEPEST SYMPATHY AND CONDOLENCES GO OUT TO HIS WIFE SHIRLEY AND THE REST OF HIS FAMILY.
"WHERE EVER YOU ARE KIM, KEEP CHASING THE BIRDIE"
