RALLY POINTS SCORING SYSTEM
At it's recent agm the IBF
ratified the rally point scoring system. As a result Badminton England
have announced that from the start of season 2006-07 Badminton England
will be adopting the new scoring system for all events sanctioned by
Badminton England. This means that the scoring system will be used from
the international events right down to the lower levels of the county
system. It also means that all the tournaments sanctioned by Badminton
England will use the new scoring system. At a local level it is being
left up to the local associations to decide if they want to introduce
the new scoring system.
Did you
know that the Sheffield and District Badminton Association was formed on
September 3rd 1935 and was initially called the Sheffield and District league? There was a
break till 1945 caused by the war and the league re-formed in 1949. It finally became the
Sheffield and District Badminton Association in 1973. The original league was formed by
the following clubs:- St Augustine's, Hayfields, Nether Church, St
Polycarp, Swinton and Y.M.C.A (now called Oakbrook).
There were also another 28 people present at this meeting but no other club names
have been recorded apart from the above mentioned. Thought not! |
