Shattered

Badminton

Interesting sport consisting of three 'disciplines'.
1) Singles is funnily enough one person working their arse off to win the game
2) Level Doubles is two people of the same sex working their arses off to win the game
3) Mixed Doubles is a boy and a girl playing to win the game but in my opinion only the boy works his arse off whilst the girl stands at the front being useless playing netshots which is 'sssooo hard' apparently. If Ella sees this i'm DEAD.

Yesterday I went to Luton to play the first Bedfordshire/Badminton England tournament which was an U17 Bronze equal to an U15 Silver which is what i am at the mo. Matt was there aswell looking to win the singles whilst i was there looking to win the Doubles.

First Singles. Everyone i knew there got a piss easy game apart from me first and guess what......i lost unsuprisingly. Then i won my other 2 beating a much better player than the one i lost to. He eventually went through so i was out so i will continue on with Matts singles. Matt killed another person this week via his back this time so Matt won by default in the Quarters. (He was going to win anyway) Then in the Semis he played an ex-england player who was on his comeback after illness and unfortunately lost 22-20. So a Bronze for Bedfordshire in the singles thanx to Matt.

Level Doubles. My time to shine. Matt got knocked out in his group cos he had a bad partner cos he didn't say yes when i asked him to play with me (Idiot). Me and Ian however (Dream Team) Killed of our group and continued our amazing play to the final winning the Semi 21-16.
Final playing to huge beefy guys (who thought they were gonna walk us........oh how wrong they were) even all the way until 17 all when they went up to 19-17. I'm thinking S**T! But Dream team fought back like the heros we are with some ultimate defence and some amazingly good play to bring it back to 19 all. We won the next point, 20-19 to us, we can do it i was now thinking. Last point they attacked the serve and i was immediately defending. 2 Big ass mother F*****s smashing the hell at me but with my amazing skills, tought to me by an England player i drove the shuttle back at them which was the only thing they weren't expecting and the brainless oaf went to smash it below net hight. Result a framed smash not even reaching the net and a loud ZZZZOOOOO from me and Ian. (a badminton shout) Dream Team 21 Brainless Oafs 19. Oh Yeh.

Bronze Medal in the Singles for Bedfordshire
