BADMINTON COACHING DAY

On Sunday, 21st September 2014 The Anders Foundation held a Badminton Coaching Day at the Wimbledon Racquets & Fitness Club. There were sessions for U19, U15 and a group of twenty 5-8 year olds, as well as ladies, mens and mixed doubles and all Disability groups. It was an enjoyable learning day and, thanks to the following coaches and our helpers, we managed to raise £955 towards ParaBadminton: Gail Emms & Nathan Robertson – Olympic Mixed Doubles Silver Medallists, World, All England, European & Commonwealth Games Champions Nick Ponting – World & All England Mixed Doubles Champion, Commonwealth Games Medallist Karen Beckman – World and Commonwealth Games Medallist Joanne Davis – former English International Player Tracy Hutchinson – former English National Ladies Doubles Champion Peter Knowles – former English Mens Singles Champion and Commonwealth Games Medallist Peter Smith – former English International Ben Beckman – English International and WR&FC Head Coach and our helpers: Marion Eyles, Lorraine Brydie, Carol Webb And yes, we will be holding a similar day in September 2015!!
