Love All: Badminton Brawl V [photo feature]
Covington architecture firm amps up leisurely backyard badminton into annual Badminton Brawl.
Badminton wasn’t always thought of as a backyard sport. Half a century ago, badminton enthralled Americans. The badminton super fans at Hub+Weber Architects, PLC have brought back this fast-paced, complex sport as a social event and competition for colleagues, friends and residents to build community, match by match and shuttle by shuttle.
Billed as the only architecture firm-hosted badminton tournament in Covington, the Badminton Brawl V: Bye Bye, Birdie event took place on Friday, June 28, 2019, right outside their office located in the old train station on Pike Street.
In its fifth year, there was a surprise upset by a new player, Rajesh Talwar, who read about it somewhere online, showed up to compete, and went on to win the day.
ICYMI, here are some of the afternoon’s highlights of the fifth Badminton Brawl:
Hub+Weber is already planning Tournament VI for next June 2020.
