Do you play at Brit?

You say in one post that you live near Brit, and now you live in Chilliwack? Which one are we to believe? Are you looking for partner in same age group for U16 or will you be looking for U19? (you only have this year left for U16 qualification if you are now 15) girl or boy (doubles or mixed?). when can you train? There may be some kids in the guildford program who could partner with you.

We can take a look at your level and see if there are interested partners. We have a 14 year old Langley kid who is competing regularly in the junior national, but he does not have a regular doubles partner.
If you can't make it, we could meet up at Britannia Gym C on Saturday afternoon (i'm usually there 2:15 to 5) and we can chat - just call out Badrad in the gym, I'll find you. I'll also likely be at Brit on Friday night as well.

Wow. You seem very confident... and I've a feeling these people are great players. I've been training since 7 and I don't consider myself good at all and you think you'll be able to improve so much in 3 months? All I can say is GO FOR IT. :D Go and beat them all. LOL. ;)

[wonger47]

Joanne, we're in different countries remember? standards may be different. I think some "intermediate" there could prolly be considered "intermediate advanced" or even "advanced" here.

It shouldn't be so hard to find another badminton player

nor would it be to find one at your level

I guess the best bet would try VRC

Out of all the community centers in Vancouver though, Britannia community center has the best public players.
