Hi, Im a C player looking for a small group of players to practice doubles/singles matches at BintangBadminton (Geneva) on a routine basis. I have a few players on my list already but looking to fill in few more spots. It would be best if you're a B or C+ player. Im looking to go to Bintang 2-3 times a week after work hours (7-10pm). The group's age ranges from 25-50, so dun be too shy to come even tho u're too young or old. some are students, engineers, and even VP of dot.coms. For more info/location/hours, please go to Bintang Badminton's website www.bintangbadminton.com Thanks and have a great day.
by practice do you mean playing games or doing drills? what's your name? what days do you go to Bintang? may be i know you... i usually go on either monday/tuesday/thursday/saturdays.
I wanna join, but im not a B/C+ player If you guys meet on saturdays and wouldn't mind a guy like me to join, then that would be great. I have practice everyday except for Saturdays and Sundays. I need more people to play with since our new coach wont let anyone else in the gym that isn't on the team. The other coaches did and so we had better players to play against. So we can only play with each other which isn't all too great.
we were there tonight. got the around 8.45pm. there were a couple of free courts so we various footwork drills. let us know when you are going there next.
If you guys happen to be there on Saturday. Can I join you? Even though I'm on a badminton team, we're not doing any real practicing. So I'm in real need of a good practice. All I do is play a game and sit down the whole entire practice...
sorry... Hi Joseph/Kwun, Sorry I didnt reply early, was pretty busy the past few days and still working on which days to come by, some in my group wants to go to Bintang on MW, some on T/Th, and some on weekends....but will finalize soon. Will be back with more info, gotto jet for now, lots of work. thanks
Re: sorry... Don't worry about it, we're all busy. If at all possible, do you think you and some people from the group can go this Saturday? I'm not 100% sure I'm going this saturday, but it looks like I will. Let me know if your group is going so that we can look out for you guys.
Re: sorry... solution is easy. go M/T/W/Th. problem solved! just came back from there. it seems like Bintang is getting crowded now. i looked at the signup sheet, there are around 100 drops-in everyday. plus the regular members. so i think they are doing well, which is a really good thing!
Hey dailybads, I was there yesterday from 4:30 - 9:30. I will probably start going there a lot earlier. How will I recognize you guys?
phew wut a day oops forgot to describe myself. but i was wearing white tshirt and blue short pants, thats wut i wear typically when I go to Bintang. i was there from 5-8.30 pm, played 7 straight games of singles at court #1. i think there're only 2 asian guys there on court #1, and I was one of them. crowd was crazyyy tho, so many ppl today. finished off the day with a doubles game with my gf and I accidently hit the bird with the racket frame, that shot cracked it. There goes my Armortec 500, and its only 2 months old. But I bought one immediately from bintang before I left. Phu Khuu strung the new racket in 30 mins. Had to leave earlier bc my fren dislocated his shoulder. Did u hear Phu Khuu paging for Doctors? Haha.
is bintang alwiz that crowded on Sunday nites? it was so packed from 5-7.30, had to wait 30 mins in between games.
Joseph you guys go there way too early. by the time old folks like us shows up at 8pm, you will be tired. then we can't take advantage of the empty gym and do some good quality (ie. tiring) drills... do you even eat during that 5 hours?
not sure about Sundays. but in general. Bintang is getting more and more crowded. i wonder where all these badminton players come from..
I know at least 10 people who used to go to Sunnyvale communnity center are switching to Bingtang. I'm one of them.
what made you switch? many a times i have heard ppl complain about the floor. but yet ppl still go there.
