    Hi All.

    I'm looking for a badminton club around Sydney while I'm here working for 6 months. I'm pretty casual playing at a advanced beginner level. Week nights or weekend is good for me.


    Anyone know of any clubs?

    All good things
    Craig

    Hi Guys,

    Are you still looking around to join a club? I am interested too but i play Friday evenings at Dulwich Hill Public School. I was thinking if we are keen, we can book a court at Sydney Olympic Park every Saturday morning and we can play. I am an intermediate player.

    Let me know what you guys think?

    Cheers,
    Pav

    What happened to MUBC (Macquarie University Badminton Club)?

    Did the club discontinue? And now, Aussie Sydney Badminton Club takes over that day/time slot?

    thanks for the quick reply!

    do you know if they will still have sessions this time of year? i'll be there from next week for 7 weeks.

    Also are the standards quite good? i'm a university first team player in UK so similar standards would be fantastic!

    Thanks again!

    You phoned the school?

    You should phone SBA (Sydney Badminton Association)
