A big thank you and well done must be said to all those that helped run and organise the weekend between both the social and the badminton itself. It was great to see so many playing over the 2 days of badminton and was lovely to see people from other counties support the club as well. Congratulations to all the winners.
That very nearly brings our season to an end for another year with just the Munster Interleague finals to be played next Sunday in UL so best of luck to each of the clubs going forward in that.
Finally, our end of year Kerry Badminton Social is taking place the 27th of May in the Plaza Hotel Killarney so we hope to see you all there collecting all your awards you’ve won throughout the year and enjoying the night.
