National Capital Badminton Team Tournament 2012

Aug 18-19, 2012 at the RA Centre, Ottawa

Ottawa District Badminton Association would like to congratulate the participants of the 2012 National Capital Team Tournament.

With fourteen teams (112 participants) from surrounding regions competing for the much coveted Large Cup Trophy and runner up prizes, the tournament was without a doubt, one of the best badminton events in Ottawa this year.

Special mention to Vivian Tam and her team, WYYYYBW, for winning this year's National Capital Team Tournament, beating a formidable opponent in Kenny Yuen's team, Saad Without Brigette. The exciting A Finals made a fitting end to what was already an incredible weekend!

On behalf of the organizing committee, I would like to thank the participants not only for showcasing their athleticism and competitive spirit, but also for their continuous support of ODBA endeavours. Your participation in this tournament, not only as players and spectators but also as fundraisers and advocates, enabled us to reach our desired donation-goal for the Kidney Foundation of Canada.

With your help, through the 50/50 draw, raffle tickets purchase for the racket and bag, and sales of Victor merchandise, we successfully raised $1000.00 for the Kidney Foundation of Canada, which will go towards much needed funding for kidney-disease related research and cure. For more information about the organization and their projects, please visit www.kidney.ca.

We would like to wholeheartedly thank our volunteers for their taking the time out of their weekend to make the tournament possible. Your help, in fundraising, line judging, and any other tasks we asked of you, made all the difference in the impeccable flow of this tournament.

Lastly, for those who were not able to purchase badminton merchandise (dry-fit t-shirts, grips, mini bird, mini badminton bag/pencil case, and socks), or for those wishing to pick up more, please email us at nc@odba.ca for more info.

We hope that you enjoyed the tournament as participants as much as we enjoyed hosting it. We look forward to hearing feedback from you and seeing you again next summer!

Warm regards,
