Archibald Frank Engelbach was a former English badminton player. He competed in the All England Championships winning the Men's doubles title in 1920 under the alias A Fee. He was a schools gymnastic champion before taking up badminton and became a prominent badminton judge. This resulted in him being uncapped for the England team.[1] In 1930 he married Violet Maude, also a well known badminton player, daughter of Herbert Baddeley, the four time winner of the Wimbledon doubles. He died on December 1961 at his home in London aged 80.[2]
