    Hi! I'm glad to see such a vibrant community in Atlanta. I'll be an Undergrad at Emory this fall and I've played for the past four years. I'm not bad and I want to continue playing. Since I don't have a reliable means of transportation since we're not allowed cars, anyone know a club close to Emory's campus? I know Emory has a club itself, but I haven't heard much about it. Either way, thanks!

    http://www.gutsandglorytennis.com, They are based in Suwanee, GA, but I dont know how well they string. What I might do later is send my racket to www.badminton.net and have them string it same day. I used to buy rackets and have them string it when I was in San Diego.

    Stringing in Marietta

    Hardcore tennis (http://www.hardcoretennis.net/ ) strings badminton rackets. They are located in the Windy Hill Shopping Village mall close to I-285 I-75 intersection. They have strung my rackets for just 15 bucks (my own string). The racket is usually ready the same day.

    I string rackets.

    $12 if you have your own string, otherwise, I have Yonex BG9, BG65, BG80, Ashway Rally 21 mico, and ML-LX, you can choose from.

    also I have order a big amount of shuttlecocks:
    I made a website just for fun:

    hope this will help.

    Hi there,

    I live in Duluth, close by the Perimeter area. I'm an intermediate player who's willing to spill energy across the courts, could anyone introduce me to the Perimeter group?

    thanks!! :D

    zmwoody, How is badminton at Emory? Is it popular?
    I visited that distinguished university a couple years ago. The Woodruff Physical Education Centre was an impressive building!
    But there was nary a sign of a badminton player about.
    It's always nice to read about different clubs around the world in the pages of BadCentral. Anything to share on Emory? :)

    I don't really know about Emory My stepson goes there. They have a intramural team that has gone to some tournaments. I'm in Arizona we have a badminton facility here now before we only had rec center gyms.

    That is a great thing that you have in Mesa now! It is always scary opening a sports-oriented business, especially when the sport is "minor". Best of luck!!:)

    Anyone know of a place to play in Cobb? There are several Univ like Southern Polytech and Kenn State, and there seem to be badminton courts in their gym, but I don't know if they are open to public. Anybody has any information? Looking for a place to smash near home...

    I live in Cobb too! If you find out anywhere to play, let me know. I'm deeply interested in playing and have been looking for a place close by that I don't have to fight traffic to get to after work in order to play.
