Club Members

 

Being a One-Court Club, the maximum viable membership is about sixteen, and of necessity a lot of sitting about is entailed.
‘Serious’ players don’t like this, and play elsewhere. Phoenix therefore has a collection of more socially inclined…mature…. players who enjoy the social wait.
The standard however is good! - hence 5 teams
The Club attracts players from all around the area:
From Drayton itself, from Newport, Wistanswick, Loggerheads, and other points on the compass.

Despite Phoenix’s small size, it has very strong links with the county’s badminton structure:
Tony Hall is the County’s President.
Kath Thomas is the County’s League Secretary (in her spare time!).
