About Club

Emba Badminton Club is a club with a long tradition.

We train hard, but love to have fun too! We love it when we win, but we’re just as enthusiastic about our groups that simply meet for recreation.

We don’t differentiate between our members. Anyone is welcome to join us. Our qualified trainers are members just like anyone else and will be happy to tell you more about the sport, what we offer and help you enjoy be a member.

We’re a volunteer-based club and thus always happy to welcome new members who are interested in joining in with club activities, helping us organise events and being part of our community.

Timeline

2009 — 2010

Emba Badminton Club was founded by a group of sports enthusiasts who simply loved the game of badminton. Among them was Gerry and Don Griffin, Virginia Li and Robert Morrison. And so the EBC started its journey.

2011 — 2012

Emba Badminton Club joins Cyprus Badminton Federation (KOM) and launches a junior program based on efforts of volunteer coaches Don Griffin, Virginia Li and assistant coaches, members of EBC. Our Club is actively supporting KOM in its efforts to promote game of badminton among young children in Cyprus.

 

2013 — 2014

Emba Badminton Club is growing in numbers. Membership list is increasing and the variety of nationalities involved in the sport of badminton is becoming rather impressive. British, Cypriot, Russian, Chinese, Belorussian, Dutch… The range of ages spans from the youngest players being only 5 y.o. to the eldest being over 70 y.o. We are a truly inclusive club.

2015 — 2016

Emba Badminton Club’s juniors have their debut in tournaments organized by KOM. EBC is lucky to welcome some very generous ex-professional players gifting their time and efforts to train EBC juniors absolutely FREE of charge. Maria and Alexander, we thank you for your kind efforts.

2017 — 2018

Emba Badminton Club actively participates in the events of Cyprus Badminton Federation and sends its volunteers to international tournaments for line judging. Junior members of EBC bring their first trophies. Well done to Joanna Georgiou!

2019 — 2020

Hard works pays off! EBC coach Don Griffin together with assistant coach Alexander Mandryk excel at training their juniors. 2019 trophies brought home by juniors are simply amazing. Max Law takes a silver in Masters U13 while Amelia Georgiou becomes the National champion U11.
