Despite the inclement weather, or the allure of Christmas shopping or, indeed, the North Kerry football final played in nearby Listowel, the Moyvane Community Centre was the focal point for the many badminton enthusiasts from all corners of the Kingdom of Kerry on Sunday last where the Newtownsandes sponsored 32nd annual Badminton tournaments were hosted by the local club.
