    Hi there!

    Yes you are welcome to join us! I will PM you once i have it booked for this week along with my contract details.

    The map for fusion is here: http://www.fusion-lifestyle.com/centres/elephant/map.htm

    Not the best of sports centres, bit run down but its the only local one in Central London.

    Hi

    Hi,

    I'd like to join as well - also played second team at uni, but a bit unfit/rusty these days. assuming you welcome female players?

    What about courts at Finsbury Leisure Centre in Old Street?

    Hiya, we're just thinking of using another sports centre, fusion at elephant & castle been pi$$ing us off for quite a while now with their rude service and they actaully cancelled our courts last week because someone else booked the entire court for basketball without telling us until we all arrived ready to play.. they only gave us one hour free badminton as compensiation. told them to stuff it.. :mad:

    Is the sports centre near old street station? Whats the prices like? =)

    Thanks

    Hi there,

    Quite interested as I'm in a 2nd team at Uni (Kings). Although our whole 2nd team is not really up to standard (club level standard).

    What Uni are you from?

    What sort of time on sundays were you thinking of playing splitstep? How many of you are there?

    I live in Herts and so might not be able to make a morning session on a Sunday, but could possibly make an afternoon session (anytime after 12.00 maybe), if you're still looking for players.

    Now at finsbury?

    Hi,

    I may be interested, but could you clarify if you have now moved to Finsbury Leisure Centre on a regular basis? if so, it would be handy to post this up on the discussion thread, with times if poss. Apreciate this all takes time!

    In any case please add me to any list you may be using to get info to people: richardianbrown@hotmail.com

    Thanks

    Rich

    OK then, let's get this badminton party started! How about March 19th? I know that's a long way ahead but my elbow's sore and I need to rest it for a couple of weeks. I won't be offended if you all want to meet up before then wihtout me (sob!)

    If people can commit to it then I'll try to book some courts. How about a start time of 1.00pm?
