The Oxfordshire Badminton League recently published the league structures for the forthcoming 2015-16 season. St Clements Ladies Doubles team enjoyed an unbeaten season during 2014-15 in Division 3, securing 9 wins and a draw in their 10 fixtures. They have been rewarded with promotion to Division 2.

Our Mens Doubles team remain in Division 3 of their competition, the Mixed Doubles stay in Division 4, whilst our 3D team drop down to Division 3.

During our popular Summer Club we again held a fun singles tournament open to any summer club members. Entrants were organised into two qualifying groups with the top two players in each going through to the semi-finals.

Group A saw David Doan and Jonathan Treadgold qualify, whilst Group B was won by Nick Abitabile with Matt Bramall finishing second. The semi-finals saw David beat Matt 21-10 and then Nick won a hard fought encounter against Jonathan 21-16.

The final was best of 3 games and despite putting up a brave fight in the second game, Nick was no match for the youthful David who came through 21-7, 21-17.

Thanks to everyone who took part.
