    I'm living more or less parttime at Bali due my occupation

    With help from my Indonesian Badminton fellows and other with knowledge about Badminton courts-lanes-arena-hall there would be good to know about around on Bali, I think we should try to list it here with addresses and coordinates

    One place I know, located in Denpassar, Sesetan

    8 lanes primary double. Good ambiance, easy to drop in from street, and nearly always someone who need a stand in :) open from 18 all week, players in all levels.
    For a Scandinavian as me, it can be very hot in there 30-34C so double is just great :)
    and drink like a camel some hours before !

    Jalan Suwung Batan Kendal No.16
    Denpasar Selatan, Kota Denpasar, Bali 80223, Indonesien
    -8.712138, 115.222939

    Hello, Petersen!
    Are you staying at Bali now?
    We are couple from Russia and in December we are going to Bali and looking for the place, where we can play badminton!We are not beginners, we regularly play badminton here in Russia, and we want to get new experience at Bali!
    Could you recommend some place for us?

    Hi Evgenia

    I'm not at Bali in December, that will be my holiday reserved for skiing ;)
    All the clubs I know are located more or less a round Denpasar, will it be your location as well ?
    If it is, I can PM you some phone numbers to some well playing Teams of mixed ancestry :)

    Hi!
    We are going at Bali at 26.12.2016 and we will be close Jimbaran from 27.12 to 29.12 and after we will go at Gili islands. Is it ok for you?, if we don't find somebody to play, we will not take rackets at baggage ☺️

    I'm back in Denpasar and will be around until December 2017

    Playing at Renon-Sidharta-Sesetan & Gelegor Carik which have a nice green PVC court normally the floors are made of some kinda tile, I'm getting used to it, can be slippery when dusty or damped, so good BADMINTON shoes with plenty of pattern can be a good idea if you wanna play more than 10 min. (;
    And then bare in mind if YOU'RE from a more cold country, playing at the courts in Indonesia feels literally as jumping around in a sauna, so of experience drink 1-2 liter water 1 hour before you start to play

    If you need equipment you can buy to reasonable prices in Toko Govinda in Kota Denapasar

    PM for whatsapp

    Regards

    Hi Petersen,

    I'm visiting Bali from this Sat and leaving on Wed. Staying in Seminyak. Which evening and time is good to try and crash a game in Gelogor Carik?

    Took up the game for about 4 yrs. Able to do ok short serves, drops, net returns etc.

    Thanks for advice.

    Hi Petersen! Thanks for the advice - I may go check it out when I'm out there! Are you likely to be back in Bali any time in August?

    Hi Petersen,

    I will be in Bali during 09-25 October and I have been searching for information about Badminton and your post showed up!!

    I've been playing Badminton in Cyprus since March this year and I really love this sport, I play twice a week with different level of people but I have never received any proper trainings, which is very pity as I consider myself to be an average player but if I have more training I can for sure do better. That's what they told me.

    I am looking for a place to play badminton and perhaps get some training from some coaches while I am there. Do you have any info about it?

    My parents actually live in Suwung which is very close to the place you mentioned. Do you guys play often there and what time?

    regards,
    Anthony
