Have other commitments?

If you like to play badminton and can’t make all of the practices due to other commitments (other sports, band, production, work, etc.)  just let the coaches know.  As long as you can make at least half of the practices and can attend all of the tournaments we’ll consider you for a spot on the team.

Practice Schedule

Expect 2-3 practices per week. The practice schedule will vary depending on available gym time and will be posted weekly.  We will update schedule as more gym information becomes available .  We do have the following times every week during the season:

Every Sat. morning from 9:30-11:00 a.m. – after tryouts all of our teams will practice on Sat. morning.

Every Sunday evening from 7:30-9:00 – after tryouts this is an optional practice just to play games.
