Our 5th tournament was our biggest yet and we’re absolutely thrilled! Thanks to everyone who took part, especially our friends from Dublin’s Flaming Feathers. They’ve supported us since day 1 back in 2022 and we’re always grateful for their presence.

Congratulations to all our winners and every single player who competed. We should all take pride in every point scored in this special event that brings together the LGBTQIA+ badminton community and its allies to celebrate a day of friendly competition, inclusivity and fun.
