    From now on it will be $5 for the first visit which will be deductible from the membership price.

    New rules according to the organizer I spoke with.

    Also the new hours will be from 4pm untill 6pm Saturday and Sunday.

    Hi i am new to the thread, I wanted to know which is actually the best place to play badminton. I didnt really go through the whole thread but william hingston seems to be the popular one. Is it still the case?
    if so when are the courts available and what are the schedules?

    Thanks

    It depends on your level and location (or willingness to travel). If you are in the west island as your tag indicates then one of the clubs in the area should be good. Check out:

    If you are really strong (level A or B) then Ahuntsic would be better, though I don't know if you can join them at this point.

    Schedules for McGill are posted each week here. Look for "recreational badminton" (not "varsity" or "staff").

    No need for reservation. I think the drop-in rate for non-students is about 7$ for the day.

    It`s hard to find a decent place to play in Montreal from my opinion;no matter what level you`re in and where you`re from.Locations,facilities,club styles,hours,prices and purposes seem weird to me.I think I`ll find one place eventually when I live here long enough.Oh,well,maybe not.I`m giving it up now.My shoulder hurts.

    Since you're playing at the Atwater Open there prolly wont be anyone your level around except at the tournament itself. Im pretty sure you can play with the players there during the day since tournament after tomorrow only start late afternoon and most better players not playing will be there watching the games.
