Alberton, Organiser:
This is my 1st time organising a Badminton IPC and I am glad that all of them turn up. As I only booked 2 courts for 1 hour each, I decided to split them up into 4 per group and play the match with 21 points system and rotating new players to come in to play after each match has ended. To my surprise, Kah Yin played extremely well despite having a height disadvantage when playing against taller opponents.
After the match has ended, we walk all the way from Yishun Sports Hall to Northpoint for our dinner. Along the way, we started to chit chat with the senior and new members. We ended the IPC with another group photo just outside the food court. I hope that everyone has truly enjoyed this IPC and my apology for not being able to book more courts for the 2 hours period.

Tbh, i thought it would be rather awkward cos i didn’t know anyone there yet (except for the fact that i know Berlin), but surprisingly it wasn’t all that awkward! Everyone were friendly in one way or another and i really liked that smile.
The badminton part was fun, even tho the court rules are so confusing!!
Overall, it was an enjoyable afternoon with everyone who went, i had fun! It feels great meeting and knowing new people smile. Thanks Alberton for organizing this IPC!

Badminton ipc was really fun. This is the second IPC event i went to. Got to know many friendly people through this event too. Many were good in playing badminton, and everything. Everyone was like, entertaining one another, making each other laugh, etc. I enjoyed myself alot during the few hours. Bonding session was nice as well. (:

Today is my 3rd time attending an IPC event, it was quite fun as there was quite a big group of people. As the previous 2 IPC that I went for did not have that many people.
After the two hours were up, we walked to North Point to eat. It was quite a long walk but we had fun chatting on the way to have our dinner. After our dinner, we had another group photo. We wanted to stay on and have more bonding activities however, there was no space available for playing games. And thus we had to end our IPC, but it was really fun and we got to meet more people and make more friends.

First time joining a badminton IPC and it was fun.
Get to meet lots of newbies and members-to-be.
We took turns to play in the court and managed to sweat alot.haha
Really have fun bonding with some of them.
And we really looked like having a class excursion with this whole big group of people.
Hope there’s more to come =)
