Badminton Mothers

The Stoke Ladies' Badminton Club, formed last year mainly to cater for the mums (especially those with young children), ended its second season a few weeks ago. And what a successful season it was! The club, with 86 members, is now an affiliated club and is attached to the Stoke club. Its members now play two days a week and receive coaching. We attended the prize-giving.
