This is a first for the badminton club of Mazères, indeed last week took place the first Blackminton of the club where 29 badminton players responded from Mazères and surrounding clubs.
But what exactly is the Blackminton? “It’s a nocturnal and festive version of badminton”, underlines Cathy Trang, president of the club. And to continue: “The players present that day were able to share a unique experience, for the occasion very powerful projectors which make fluorescent, the rackets, the shuttlecocks, the grounds, the nets, but also the players, had been installed at the Couloumier sports complex in Mazères.”
Before starting the matches, the players went to the neon make-up stand, where everyone did not hesitate to make up their face, arms, legs, everyone was free to limit their creative delirium or not.
Once made up, it was around 8 p.m. that the players were able to start the matches with 21 points, each time with a change of team and partner.
But this event would not have been complete without a musical atmosphere worthy of the name explains Cathy that evening the sound power to carry all the players on a rhythm of the dancefloor to perfect the atmosphere. For their part, all the p club volunteers were very involved in the organization of this sporting and friendly evening which, given its success and its atmosphere, will be renewed.
