Semi Finals (Team handicap cup)

The fixture between Edenfield and Goodshaw C was also played as a league match.  A strong Edenfield side knew the handicap would be in favour of their opponents with 6 of the 18 games being won to single scores.  However, the Goodshaw side rallied in the mixed pairings winning one game 21:17 in a final ace score of 374:221.  This left the Goodshaw team reliant on the handicap with a 153 ace deficit.  The opening of the envelope revealed a handicap of 159½. The final cup score was 374:380½ - well done to the handicappers again to be within 1 ace per game.

In the second semi final, Rossendale Racquets played St Philips B who had overlooked the 7:30pm start time.  However, we are all here to play badminton and when the match commenced, St Philips B would have had to concede any unfinshed games at the end.  A close encounter entailed and it was only the final game score at 9:7 which was conceded and recorded as 21:7.  This resulted in a 9:9 game score which St Philips edged 304:312 in aces.  However, the envelope contained a 72½ handicap in favour of St Philips B, which only extended the dirrence and a final score of 304:384½ was recorded.

Brunlea played the reigning champions Blackburn Seniors A on Monday where there was no surprises in a 3:25 away win.

On Friday, a minutes silence was held to remember Oakgate badminton player Ihsan Abid prior to the Oakgate B v Independents game. 

Unfortunately, Independents had no second pairing due to injuries and the unavailability of players.  This match therefore consisted of just 8 games, although the Oakgate team did loan players so everybody had their full quota of 6 games each.  Of the 8 games which counted, Oakgate B won 5:3 to secure their second win of the season.  Credit must go to Independents who did not forfeit the match and receive a negative point deduction.

Well done to completing the fixture as we are all trying to play badminton and promote the sport we love.

Quarter Final round (Team handicap cup)

An all second division clash between St Philips B and Accy Flyers B should have made it easier for the handicappers.  However, after the level doubles Accy Flyers B held a 10 ace advantage (136:146).   Accy Flyers B then won all of the mixed pairings resulting in a game score of 257:356, a difference of 99.  However, a 115½ handicap for St Philips B team ensured their progression to the semi finals by 372½ : 356.  Well done to the handicappers where the margin of difference was less than 1 ace per game.

IN THE 1ST DIVISION

Independents hosted Goodshaw A on Monday at Darwen Leisure Centre.  With 6 of the 18 games won by the minimum 2 ace difference, the 6:12 game score could easily have been reversed.  An injury to Independents 3rd lady meant their 2nd lady was choosen to play an additional 2 mixed doubles, but both teams managed to secure 6 bonus points to record a 12:18 away win.  Goodshaw A remain fifth whilst Independents move off the foot of the table.

St Philips A moved up to third place in the league table despite losing 9:21 to the reigning champions Blackburn Seniors A. The result extends Blackburn Seniors A lead at the top to 38 points as they have only dropped 8 games in 8 matches scoring 192 from a possible 200.

First round (Team handicap cup)

Rossendale Racquets and Oakgate C benefited from walkovers in the first round when Blackburn Seniors A and Oakgate A respectively failed to raise a team.

On Monday, Accy Flyers B played Goodshaw B at the Adrenaline Centre, Haslingden.  A final score of 336:313 left Accy Flyers B 23 points adrift, but the sealed envelope contained a 25½ ace handicap in favour of Accy Flyers B, who progress to the quarter finals by a narrow 2½ aces.  

On the same night Brunlea entertained Blackburn Seniors C.  With the first division team winning all of the 18 games played, Blackburn Seniors C were reliant on the handicap.  However, the result ended 378:174 and even with 180½ added, this was not enough for Blackburn Seniors C to progress.  Congratulations to Brunlea with more cup action tomorrow.

Another first division versus second division encounter when Accy Flyers A played Goodshaw C.  With the Goodshaw C reliant on the handicap, the match score of 378:206 left Goodshaw C requiring a minimum of 172½.  On opening the envelope, Goodshaw C received 205½ resulting in a 378:407½ scoreline.

Edenfield had a change of venue when they played their first round cup match against first division team St Philips A.  Played at Darwen Leisure Centre, the Edenfield team won 5 of the 18 games played with an ace count of 225:362 (137 difference)  However, Edenfield's handicap of 172½ put them through to the quarter finals in the New Year.  Final score was Edenfield 397½ : 362 St Philips A.

On Wednesday, St Philips B played Blackburn Seniors B in an all second division clash although some of the players are of first division standard.  With St Philips B winning 2 of the ladies doubles, the result was always going to be difficult for Blackburn Seniors B against a young St Philips B side.  The game score of 212:356 (144 difference) was recorded, but a massive 255½ handicap sees the St Philips B side into the quarter finals (467½:356). 

Well played to St Philips B but the handicap committee must do better as we try to give all teams an equal chance of winning.

The final match of Round 1 saw Oakgate B play Goodshaw A at the rearranged venue of Newhouse Academy, Heywood.  The fixture was also doubled up as a league match.  Despite the closeness of the teams in the league table an ace score of 273:368 (2:16 in games) the handicap of 20½ in favour of Oakgate B was not enough.  Congratulations to Goodshaw A who will now play Edenfield in the quarter finals.

Preliminary round (Team handicap cup)

Independents played Rossendale Racquets in the preliminary round of the Team Handicap competition for the right to play Blackburn Seniors A in round 1.  The Division One versus Division Two is always difficult for the handicappers to agree.  However, the handicap in favour of Rossendale Racquets was too difficult for Independents to overturn; especially with Rossendale Racquets winning 2 of the 18 games.  A final score of 367:232 meant the Division 2 team required a minimum of 136 to progress.  The opening of the envelope at the conclusion of the match confirmed an average of 213½ for Rossendale Racquets, resulting in a match score or 367:445½.

Due to court unavailability, the match between Oakgate A and Oakgate B was brought forward and played at a neutral venue.  The 15:3 game score, 22:8 after bonus points, was enough to move Oakgate A to the top of the table, although Blackburn Seniors A do have a game in hand.  Oakgate B remain in fifth.
