The ANU Badminton Club is a social club that caters to students from a wide variety of backgrounds and aims to foster, promote and develop the sport on a social and competitive level. The club has existed since the 1970s and hosts regular sessions on Saturdays (2-5pm) and Wednesdays (7-10pm) for members to meet up and play.
We are a Managed Club, this means that instead of free games where players organise games themselves, we allocate players to courts on a rotation (15 minutes). This allocation ensures players of similar skill levels will play together, and provides an opportunity to socialise among club members. Our club uses a leveling system based on grades A-E (See our Leveling Guide). We assign and grade players based on their skill and match players using this system.
We run all year round (including over the summer), no matter your background whether young or old, you'll meet new people, find great games of badminton and stay fit at our club!
As an ANU Sport Junior approved club we're open to all members 12+ of age!
During regular sessions, the club provides new shuttles (currently Aeroplane Black EG1130s), and loan equipment such as racquets as part of the session fee.
We also offer racquet restringing ($30 for members, $35 for non-members) and grips sold at cost ($3.50).
Club members have the opportunity to:
- Attend our new social Monday playing sessions (5:30-8pm, 8 Courts).
- Attend our social Wednesday playing sessions (7-10pm, 8 Courts)
- Attend our social Saturday playing sessions (2-5pm, 12 Courts), which include optional coaching from 4-5pm (coaching is only during the university semester)
- Play in local competitions - ACT Open, ACT Interclub Challenge, ANU Closed
- Attend club social events
If you are unsure if there is a session in a given week, please check the schedule attached at the end.
