Following a review of many options for hosting the 2013 Canadian Masters, Badminton BC has consulted the Canadian Masters Association and Badminton Canada with the preferred hosting of the event to be at ClearOne Browngate, Richmond, BC from April 22-27, 2013.
As with any event of this size and importance there will be challenges. To help address these challenges the next steps will be:
Badminton BC will be recruiting volunteers to form the various organizing committee(s). Interested parties can confirm their interest/support through philw@badmintonbc.com.
Canadian Masters Association will be looking for information from the playing community, somewhat of a pre-event survey, to provide additional insight of potential concerns (along with their possible solutions) for the organizing committee to review and investigate.
With 8 months to the start of the event there is a potential to plan a magnificent competition. We look forward to hosting the masters community and setting a new benchmark for the potential of British Columbia.
