Visitors:
.
We always encourage visitors to come down to our club night to come and play. The standard is decent, so it is recommended that you have played before you come down and have a reasonable standard of badminton. Please email us for queries
We are always on the look out for new members and for new people to compete for places in the teams, so if you are interested in social or competitive badminton then give it a try. Throughout the season (sept - april) when we have home matches on a Sunday at the same time as club night, and prioritory for spare courts goes to the exisiting members, but once the matches are finished then visitors can join in with the club night. This would only usually happen if we have high numbers turn up on a match night. During out of season May - Aug/sept the season has finished so all courts are free for practice.
.
Visitors costs for the club night is: £2.00 per hour

Membership Fees:
.
Again, this is a discussion which goes on in the AGM and is usually quite constant each year. Setting up the website is one of the ways to try and help lower the fees by encouraging more people from outside the club to come down as visitors, and hopefully eventually members. The fees are dependant on the number of members at the club. Obviously the more members we have, the less the fees for each member.
.
This will be reviewed again at the next AGM.
