Sunbury Ladies Badminton Club hosted a hugely successful tournament in August, with over 80 players registered to take part.
People came from far and wide to take to the courts at Eric Boardman Stadium on August 18, with players from clubs including Craigieburn, Northern Ladies, Werribee, Geelong, Thornburn, Bendigo, Ballarat and the Sikh Ladies Badminton getting involved.
Sunbury Ladies Badminton Club secretary Cathie Briggs said with membership numbers dwindling after COVID-19 lockdowns, it was great to see such involvement.
“Many of our members worked tirelessly to ensure the day was a success, that includes wrapping gifts, arranging raffle tickets, preparing courts, equipment, and food, canvassing local businesses, preparing documents and grading players,” Ms Briggs said.
“The day would not have been so successful without the input from these amazing people.”
She also said it would not have been possible without generous contributions from local businesses, and praised the support from the Sunbury Basketball Association.
Funds raised on the day will be donated to a worthy charity.
