“We had invited two toppers from Drop Shot from The Hague. Namely Lars Kros and David Suguharto, players from the Bekerkkampioen Dropshot. They gave a fantastic clinique / demo competition at BC Portland. The kids were well involved in playing and training. The Signat & Photos were also taken with these.
The evening ended with the ceremony of all talents and champions. The kids all received a nice special memory (clock with the club’s logo) alderman Mario Bianchi could not be present due to political obligations, but Lars Kros and David Suguharto were willing to observe these honors and awarded the prizes. A very nice racket was raffled among the youth members and was won by Sebastian Zwaneveld. There was a nice lottery with many prizes that were also made available by local shopkeepers (AH, Cigo, Fish stall Ons Stekkie and Drankhandel 010) from Portland.
The training staff (Cees van Leeuwen, Rob Richelle, Ties de Bruijn, Megan and Crystal Shao, Raïez Nabie and Marcel de Wijk) was also thanked by Jessie Molier for their efforts this season with a beautiful flowers, a BBQ and an exclusive BC Portland memory cup. The parents of the kids also received a cup for their support to the club, so that new training materials could be purchased, including two badminton cannons.
The new season starts again Wednesday 10 September. Does your child also feel like going badminton? Then check the club’s website: www.bcportland.nl Or send an email to [email protected].
