Across from the Big Bamboo (on Nanyang Lu) is a gym, upstairs is the badminton courts and downstairs has table tennis.

Jing An sports center also have courts.
Let me know if you are interested in a game.

can't play "competitive level" anymore due to knee injury, at least not now...but interested in leasure playing.

hi, i'm interested too. I'm Nicolas, 30, in xuhui close to shanxi lu metro station, i heard it's also possible to play in luwan stadium, but i'm ok any place as long as it's not too far.
I'd like to play on a regular basis as well, intermediate level.

Hi luv_sandra，

Try Sport Hotel on nandan road (near north caoxi rd), there are a few courts open to public.

The courts across from the Bamboo would be best for me, but I can travel.

Just started playing Badminton, but from a tennis background so decent enough (I think)

Hey Paul,

Hey guys if anybody is looking for a game I'm sitdownmich@hotmail.com or 131 672 64420. Played a bit when I was younger and also from a tennis/squash/table tennis background so would say I am of intermediate standard... Not really bothered about where we play happy to travel!

Hi All,

Just got back from the Jing An Gynasium and had a few games with JL Wang! The courts are really good there and thanks again for JL Wang in booking the courts in advance. I would like to get this badminton games going on a regular bases here, so whoever has free time or want to make it a regular thing or improve your skills, please come by and play or reply to the e-mails. Lets get this thing rolling, so we can all enjoy playing badminton on a regular bases here.

regards,

Andy

I'd love to join! I'm an intermediate player also, been playing since middle school, but practically off in the university. Please let me know the time for the next game, and I'll show up at the court. And if possible, not during working hours... BTW, you guys aren't playing w/ plastic shuttles, right?

Hi All
We had a good start daytime badminton playing yesterday afternoon, 2:30pm~5:00pm, with Mr. Zhuang, Andy and his friend, and other 3 joiners, Zhuang and Andy are pretty high level players, I tried to find a challenger for Andy around all courts but failed. I think we can start to organise a regular daytime group for fun. As it's not easy to book a regular courts after 15:00PM, I wonder what time is good for you( from 10:00 to 15:00 each working day, it's much easy to book sofar), for weekends or evening playing, we can try again in the coming days.
Yesterday, we used Aeroplane（航空）brand shuttles.
Thanks for your involvement for a good start.
Have a good day.
