I live in Bishan. I guess the only thing I don't really know is my standard. Definitely not beginner, but I don't know if that qualifies for intermediate. But I'm very interested, and I need to play with everyone to improve! =)

What is the definition of intermediate level and what is the definition of advanced level?
hi sorry for the confusion . let me explain .

our intermediate level definition -

know most rules of badminton n scoring/ has already acquired the basic badminton skills .
can do smashing retrieving serving defending drop shots(dont worry, u can practice more here ! ) this means that the player has already acquired a consistent level in executing these shots without too many errors in a short time.
can keep a rally going
have an adequate idea about doubles strategies n formation
sound or adequate footwork

advanced level


can almost perform any shots in badminton consistently n without too many errors. eg . angle slice drop , cross court drop, pushing to the corners, spinning net shots, cross court smash or drop , cross net shots, can vary serves etc .
can apply doubles strategies n formation without too much problem
quick n fast footwork
good defense n offensive skills
most of our players are upper intermediates . only about 2 to 3 fit is around the lower advanced level . why i put advanced is that we welcome higher levels to join us because we believe that this will help us improve too .
the above is just a rough guide. come n join n u can see clearly for yourself wat levels are we in ! :cool: bye !

Hmm i think i might have scared a lot of people when i wrote the above definition. its just technically speaking n we dont really follow them to a T. we welcome all types of players who are not beginners and those who wants to have more doubles or singles match play, please feel free to join us ! please ignore the above definitions ;) . sorry about that ! we are no professionals ! so dont shy k ! ciao n hope to play a game with u soon !

hi,im only a teenager ahx..14 only..i have weekly training under my coach on sun afternoon in hg sports hall as i live near there.Is there any chance of me just seeing you all play if i have the opportunity because i may not be free on some saturdays and certainly not free this week.where exactly do you all play in buangkok.i dont remember buangkok having any badminton court because i am currently having my education in a school in sengkang and play once or twice a week with my classmates or schoolteam after schools.thx alot

How big is ur group and charges per session?

You have 2 courts for 3 hours right?

I am at low advance can play continuous for long duration.
Prefer single and play double most of the time.

One problem...i stay in jurong....very far.

Do you have any game this sat as would like to join if not many people.

You can sms me at 96637725.

I am crazy about badminton now and looking for solid player to train and improve. Ever play with some ex ex national player before. Very difficult to get them....

ex nationals..my coach is an ex-national..he said he was in the singapore team for 4 years.but i dont think he will play because he has to coach us.if you are free you can come down to hg sports hall during weekends and befriend him he seems to know everyone there.

hi to all who replied tks. i already left the group as i was not happy with the organiser who simply dont care if others are happy or not. im now playing tennis more often n it has been really long since i last touch badminton. i was suprised to see so many replied. sorry for the late reply as i only came in here today! i have a suggestion, .. since so many live in hougang, why dont one of u guys start a group also. i dont mind playing with u people as long as its enjoyable n fun ! the imh is open to public booking and i think sbs transit is having a feeder bus inside too. othere places like hougang sports hall is still as popular as ever.. rather hard to get courts... so any one will like to volunteer ?:)

Hi Harish,

You have just revived a thread that started in 2004 and last got a reply
in 2006.

So I guess you won't get a positive response from this thread.

Perhaps you could look elsewhere to look for groups to join.

You could join the group I'm in if you are keen. We usually play on Sats
afternoon althought timing and venue can vary.
