What a week for Harrogate Racquets Club badminton! 🏸

Congratulations to everyone who competed at the European Senior Championships in Sardinia. A special mention to Sue and Pauline, who took bronze in the women’s doubles, with Pauline also taking bronze in the mixed doubles.

Former club member David Hutchinson won silver in the men’s 80+ doubles. Brilliant to see him still competing at this level.

Closer to home, our juniors delivered at the Yorkshire Restricted. Rhys, 15, won the men’s doubles and reached the men’s singles semi-finals. Lucy reached the semi-finals in both the women’s singles and doubles.

Well done, everyone. We’re proud of you all and looking forward to next year’s world championships in Australia! 💪
