Playing
We play each Wednesday night at the Duncraig Recreation Centre from approximately 8-10pm.
Our club encourages all players to get a fair go and so we usually organise games. We have a mix of junior and senior players, usually experienced, and a mix of members and visitors. Our members pay $5/night to play while our visitors pay $12/night.
Whilst very few of our members are badminton superstars, we ask that new members have an understanding of the rules of the game, scoring, are able to play a range of shots and are interested in improving their game. Our players are typically Western Australian Badminton A-Reserve, B or C Grade and some social players.
We encourage new members. To become a member it is necessary that you have adequate experience, come to a social night, register and have a hit as a visitor. At this point, provided we can organise competitive games with you, we may ask whether you are interested in joining the club.
We host experienced players who are a mix of recreational and competitive levels. We use only quality feather shuttles.
