A BIT OF HISTORY - we're over 80 years old!
Rathfarnham Parish Badminton Club was inaugurated in 1942, a meeting was held in the Bird room, Rathfarnham War Memorial Hall on Wednesday 30th September at 8pm. (although badminton had been played in the hall for many years before this). The subscription was set at Twenty Shillings per session. Rev. G.S.Nowlon, Rector of Rathfarnham was in the chair and Messrs. W.V.Ford was Hon.Secretary. Club night where set as Thursdays and Saturdays.
1944 End of season tournaments where nearly cancelled due to Lighting restrictions. Mr Ford secretary of the Memorial Hall stated that owing to the lighting restrictions, the supply of electricity for the hall, would not be sufficient to provide two nights lighting for the club, owing to the reduced ration of electric current for the next two months. It was decided to hold the tournament on a Saturday at 4.30, and that tea would be served at 6.30 as the gas supply would be on from 6-7pm.
