2009 WSBA Junior Championship
Bellevue Badminton Club, April 25, 2009

Note of Thanks

This is the 3rd year of the Washington State Junior Championship, which took
place at the Bellevue Badminton Club on April 25th, 2009.

Although the turnout was less than last year with 63 players mainly from the
greater Seattle area, 3 from Spokane and 2 from Campbell River,B.C., we had a
very competitive and fun tournament with all the matches finishing in just one
single day.

We also had a wide range of age groups – ranging from our youngest player,
Thaddeus Ho, at just 8 years old, to the experienced player, Joshua Wong, who
competed in the U22 events.

This is also the first time we offered the online entry option on
tournamentsoftware.com. It turned out to be a great option for the out of town
players. Results are posted on www.tournamentsoftware.com as well.

The cute T-Shirt graphic this year was designed by Natalie Sun. If you pay
close attention to the comic characters in the graphic, you may find a few
familiar faces!

I'd also like to give thanks to Nino, my co-chair of this tournament, who ran
the tournament from start to finish. Of course, without the support of Raquel
Gonzales, we would not have seen the tournament end on time.

In addition, thanks to Katherine Ip who gave me this opportunity in organizing
this tournament. I have learned a lot from her professionalism.

Last but not least, many thanks to the coaches (Kenny, Raju & Paz), parents and
the volunteers for their support.

They include:
T-shirt design & printing – Natalie Sun, Ben Shamsuddin
Draw Desk – Katherine Ip, Natalie Sun
Scorekeeping – Patrick Ip, Amy Jin, Soloman So, Renata Baker
Medals – Linda Lang, Kevin Hermanto, Raquel Gonzales
Food – Katy Wah
Clean up- Kevin Hermanto
Support – All parents.

Hope to see you again next year!
