It is with a great sadness that we have to inform members that, on Monday, Alpha Badminton lost one of its extended family; Janet Beardmore

Although Janet played her most recent badminton for Shawclough, she was a deeply valued member of Alpha for over 20 years; as player, captain and committee member.

Our deepest condolences go out to the Beardmore family.

A very big thank you to everyone who took part in and supported last night’s inaugural Bob Heaton Memorial Tournament.

A fine night was had by all, with lots of good and fun badminton being played.

A big congratulations to the 4 finalists and many thanks to the organising committee, we look forward to holding the competition on the first Monday in September every year.

Just a little reminder that we only have 2 Club Nights before the start of the new season and teams need to be organised so it’d be great to see as many members as possible next Monday at 8 o’clock.

Don’t forget we are now running our Summer Club, Monday 8-10pm.

Come on down, don’t be shy, you don’t have to be an Alpha Club Member. £5 per session.

It is with a great sadness that yesterday, surrounded by his family, Alpha Badminton Club lost one of its founder members, Bob Heaton.

Bob will be sadly missed, not only by his beloved club, but by the wider badminton community, including the Rochdale junior club, which over the years brought through many young players.

Although Bob has left us, his wit and charm will be remembered with much affection and respect by all who knew him.

Funeral Details will be circulated in due course.

Good Morning Everyone

Just a little reminder that there is no session on Monday due to the Bank Holiday and we’re back on Sept 2.

This is officially the first Alpha Club Night of the new season so it would be great to have as many down as possible as we plan for teams in the season ahead.

New members and visitors are always welcome 😊
