RSVPs close around noon on Friday.

Event format
This event is for beginners, but any level is welcome to come and work your skills. The format will be decided by the coach of the day. The coaches are not paid professionals but are badminton enthusiasts, mostly players from the "intermediate+" group. Shuttles are provided by the coaches. You'll need a racket though.

If you do not have a racket you can rent one at the reception for 1 €.
You have to wear non-marking shoes.

Event is usually structured focusing on technique first, followed by an optional 1h of free play.

Games format.
95% are double games (unless someone needs a break), typically 4 people play together 2 sets and then mix with players from other fields. We play with plastic shuttles - Yonex Mavis 2000 (which are provided).

Registration
If it's your first time, please send a private message to the host to confirm. No-shows are taken quite seriously because they unbalance the games a lot. Also once you register please keep an eye on you private messages, in case we need to contact you.

Players level
Having players with much less experience often unbalances the game making it much less interesting for more experienced players. We still try to be welcoming.
As a rule of thumb, if you know what a "clear" is, you are welcome to join.
(Note that on Sundays the attitude is a bit more relaxed than on Wednesdays, it's the weekend after all ;) )
Otherwise, feel free to get in touch with me (Timur) and we can see if we can arrange so you and existing players can have good experience playing.

Price and payments
The price of participation is EUR 8.75. Payment is on-site in cash, or via payconiq. Info provided during or shortly after the event.
