Great effort last night from the badminton team. We lost 18 - 26 but so many of the games were so close. Well done everyone, I saw lots of the skills we have practiced being used in the games. Proud coach. EV_Sport Darren Clarke Hummersknott Academy

We are angry, confused and disappointed for the badminton community. Is a pint or going to the cinema more important to Boris Johnson than our physical & mental health? ➡️ RT this letter ➡️ Tag in UK Prime Minister & your MP, details : bit.ly/319qNB2 #opensportforall
