Who plays Badminton?

Anyone? Anyone? Bueller? 😛

I'm trying to get into it again, the last time I played in was in HS and recently on Monday... where I was owned by my friend, and then afterwards, we were both pwnz0red by two old ladies in a doubles match.

Unfortunately, the closest (cheapest) court to my house is 30 minutes away -- if I wanna play closer, I have to pay membership fees >.<

 
Give me time to tie my sweater around my neck, pick up my new beamer from the dealership, and I'll come join you. 😉
 
here comes all the people who think badminton is some wussy sport where you stand around and drink lemonade...

Absolutely. I'd love to see them play against those 60-year-olds that pwned us!

Doesn't the package include Beamer Girl as well? 😛
 
My HS was one of the best in the country for a long time (eastern LI).... and other indoor sports practices would be moved/cancelled all the time because of big matches.... and everyone learned how to play in gym class.... crazyness i say!
 
Your best bet is to find a club playing at a nearby university. I played when at Auburn and later played at Tulane when I lived in New Orleans. Haven't picked up the racket in awhile though.

Badminton is great exercise, one of the more phsically exhausting sports out there.

That's right in my neck of the woods😉 Too bad they're redoing the rest of the park. There's like 3-4 baseball diamonds, a roller-hockey rink, pool and a gym. One of the baseballs is torn up. I think they're redoing some drain lines or something.

Ooooh... So do you play badminton, though? I need another n00b to help me out with the game 😀
 
man we used to play badminton in england in a run down old church hall, but it was so fun. I miss it. I like playing it better than tennis, but I think i like watching tennis more.
