well my ideal (dream) gym , woud be sumtin like.. free walkins , 7 days a week, open all day , 6-9 courts , the pleaston waitin system seems to work ok , good lighting , reachable via public transportation , any level of player seems good, preferably people of C rank and above.

however , bein its obvious that information was useless because its not possible, here is a more possible one

$2-$4 walk in, monday and wednesday nights ( because it seems like alot of open gyms are tuesday, thursday, friday, saturday and sunday) so by havin a gym around the bay area open on monday and wednesday nights badminton addicts like me who wants to play everyday can actually play everyday. 6 courts is decent and normal , pleasonton waiting system is effective to a certain degree, reachable via public transportation , good lighting , not too dim and dark makin the atmosphere feel dead. player level doest matter to me, because if theres good players then ill have some good games , if the players are novices then i get to pratice, franky it matters not to me, since all i want to do is play train and practice.
