    Most of the coaches will charge 300HKD up for private lessons.

    These are usually the most flexible in terms of time. Unfortunately, you guys will arrive in Xmas which means school holidays which means all the children are going for daytime coaching as well. (badminton is wildly popular here)

    Remember to add 60HKD per hour to the cost due to court rental.

    Best bet is to get a few people together to spread the cost.

    :O wow 300US $ and up...

    Care to do some coaching yourself Cheung?

    Are you into yet windrider?

    How can I find out if there are any near Tai Po? I really don't know anyone out there. Just hope me cantonese will be good enough to last me through 2 weeks. Don't want to talk English so people will rip me off. At the worst they think I am a Tai Luk (china) boy hehe

    I can talk Hakka fluently, strangley enough..

    I'd love to play you too. Seeing that you are in HK longer than I am, can u go and find some courts? I will live in Tai Po by the way

    hmmm, you have to suggest. Kowloon seems far out, as I don't have a map to hand! Plus I have been playing too much Shenmue haha!

    Somewhere in the middle? wherever that may be. I really don't want to travel more than 45 minutes...but go and find out anyway, at least it is better than nothing :p

    Cheers man. Are you desperate for carlton plastic shuttles? I could grab you some before I come(got 3 days left :p). What's wrong with Yonex plastics(nylon) or feathers? anything else you kinda miss and need which I can bring over?
