Last weekend brought medals for the Chaudhari family. Travelling down to Surrey for the Under 11 event, Asmita had double success, winning both the girls singles and the level doubles. Her first gold medals at that level – so very well done to Asmita.
Older brother Amit could not quite match his sister’s haul but at the Durham Under 15 Silver event he won the boys doubles, partnering Finn Connor-Watson from Durham. He also won a bronze medal in the mixed doubles with Hannah Charlton and reached the quarter finals in the singles.
Both Asmita and Amit are a year young for their age groups.
Northumberland Badminton Association is proud to announce the first Tyne Team Tournament, which will be held at John Spence Community High School on Sunday 12th of February. The tournament will be a handicap tournament with club teams playing against each other for the Tyne Team Trophy. Based on a format similar to the Sudirman Cup, club teams will play against each other in matches made up of 5 rubbers (1 each of mens & ladies singles and doubles, and 1 mixed doubles), initially in groups, and then in a final knockout stage. Each rubber will be handicapped in a similar way to the Elmfield Cup.
The tournament is aimed at senior club players and older juniors that play in a senior club.
