Post date: Aug 26, 2019 9:59:16 AM
Dear Otley Badminton Club Member
A warm welcome to our 2019-20 season! The season gets underway with our first social play session on Monday 2nd September, starting at 7.30pm and finishing at 9.45pm at Prince Henry’s Grammar School. Timings for the sessions this season remain unchanged and are as follows:
Mondays 7.30 – 9.45pm Fridays 7.00 – 9.15pm
Dates of sessions for the whole season are shown below. Note that due to School holidays and a School event, there are certain Mondays and Fridays across the season where there is no social play. We have secured additional sessions on some Tuesdays in school half terms and Easter holiday this season. This is to help fulfil our league fixtures and ensure space for our American Tournament, a fun evening of play open to every member. Members will be informed nearer times if Tuesday sessions are also available for social play.

This will be deducted from the membership fee if a player subsequently joins.
