We arrived just before the first match started on Thursday and left as the last match finished. We had a brilliant day. The venue was excellent, the organisation of the matches the same. We never had a chance to get bored because there was always a match to watch, (just numb bottoms) Would love to see more badminton at the M.E.N as it is so convenient for us (less than two hours drive), we hope the nationals can be held here too!
