With age groups from the Over 40's to the Over 60's taking place, the Round Robin event ran smoothly with the expertise of Amanda Mullery and Liam O Neill. It was great to see Badminton Ireland's President Craig Casey, Chairperson Tony Clark and the Leinster Branch President Breda Connolly, take time out to compete in their respective age groups.
