badminton tournament rules Student Banned by School for playing in Community Centre!?
My son was banned for a year by his school for playing in a SCRABBLE tournament organised by the Jurong Green Community Centre during the December school holidays! Where soccer, swimming, badminton etc etc players play for school, club and even Singapore do have this ruling. In 2007, a Singapore youth won the World Scrabble Youth Championship and was also banned by his school then. The age limit for World Youth is under-17, can we afford to curtail students, our youths, from reaching world status or into the international limelight. The School excuse is that by playing outside school, the student is exposed to 'international' exposure compared to been amatuer at school level. Ridiculous! What about students playing thru the internet - can they monitor and ban students? It is after all a simple board game of scrabble. The School has been shallow, bias and prejudicial.
Error - Other Sports ie soccer, badminton, swimmers etc etc DO NOT have this ruling!
Banned from school or from playing scrabble?. I think it silly myself, but maybe they thought he would be too good for the kids at school now?
guys i a badminton racquet. today i went to the mall and i was checking out these yonex nanospeeds and it was like 200 bucks so i was like..."ill have to check some different stores too"
so after that i went home and i went on ebay and i see these nanospeeds on ebay EXACT SAME AS I SAW AT STORE for like 50 bucks? its made in japan and all so is this some kind of scam? these sellers have 99.9% ,100% ratings and such. i come from a poor family so i dont want to spend 200
thanks alot guys!!! i apreciate you reading this and helping me!
First thing is that these types of raquets will generally sell for a lot less in China and Japan due to a much larger market and not having to ship the items overseas.
Having said that, a lot of fakes come out of China (in my case I was looking a old jade coins...eBay is a haven for a multitude of fraudsters in this category). So be careful who you buy from, what you are buying and their reputation. If you buy from overseas, stick to vendors with high feedback (ie. 99%+) and a good quantity of feedback. If they have 50 feedback or less be cautious, as they probably have multiple accounts when one gets full of too much negative.
The other word of caution is the shipping price. Confirm what the shipping price is ahead of time. Generally, the scam vendors will charge huge amounts for shipping for items that more often than not turn out to be fakes.
Bottomline, just be cautious and ask your questions before bidding.

what kind of badminton racquet is right?
well, a have a bit of experience in badminton and, i bought yonex isometric 75 MFLT and its a fairly light racquet, and a few of my friends told me that i should have gotten something like muscle power 21, or something heavier rather than something light, are they right?
It depends on how good you are in playing badminton.... if you`re really good at badminton i prefer you to use heavier racquets beacuse the heavier it is the higher you can hit but heavy raquets are a little hard to play with because your hand gets tired after playing .
