    Hi Syed,

    I am also new to this place, but I play at expert level. If you are looking for a company, then I can join with you. My only problem is that I don't have a car right now, since I moved from DC last sunday. But if you want me to join with you, then let me know your thoughts...

    My name is Eby and my cell is 571 278 4649. I am staying at Brooklyn park

    Address:

    1501, 88th AVE N
    Minneapolis
    MN 55444

    Regards,

    Eby

    Eby,

    If you want to play, you have a couple of options. The Edina club (Goodfeathers) will start up again in a couple of weeks. You can check out their website for mroe info (http://mngoodfeathers.wordpress.com/). There are also a couple of places in Minneapolis that wouldn't be too far for you. Go to http://www.minnesotabadminton.com/ to find locations. Luxton, Harrison and Peavy all have high level players.

    Your lack of transport may be an issue. I don't know if any players that live up your way. If you contact Goodfeathers the club coordinators can send a mssage out to the group to see if anyone can give you a ride once they resume.

    Good luck!

    Joel
