    It's looking like I could be in White Rock again from Thursday - Sunday of this week.

    Is VRC still going Saturday nights? if so I'd like to head over there and kill a few birds with the group.

    Also are there any other places that I might be able to get in some games, say Richmond pro or Surry badminton Centre? Ideally a doubles ladder or drop in using feather.

    Not intersted in Browngate. Tried there and it's a bit of pain in the ass to get from where I'm staying.

    For those who don't know me, I'm a competetive A level player, though I tend to play limited amount of singles.

    Just so you don't think Vancouverites don't love their Calgarian cousins...;)

    You're welcomed to join me and my friend for a singles game on Thursday 8-9pm at ClearOne Leslie (behind Superstore). It's about 2 warehouses away from Browngate (which you said it's a pain in the ass to get to). Be warned that my friend and I are not at your level. We are average players. Probably low intermediate at best.

    Bring your rain-gear cuz it's Vancouver...and that's what we do.

    Sorry, not Browngate - POCO - the one off in Coquiltlam is a pain the ass to get to.

    I'll see about getting away to Clear One for Thursday. I are a big ugly white dude who looks not like a badminton player. Okay maybe the Forza bag might make me a kinda player look alike. :D

    I'll be the small chinese guy playing singles game with a white dude. We usually play on Court #8.
    Hope you have fun during your stay in the Lower Mainland (another word for Greater Vancouver Area which includes White Rock).

    I usually get out here several times a year and fire shuttles at Pencil Pete's or Growlers head.

    It was fun meeting you ViningWolff. I hope my friend and I didn't bore you too much with lesser play. You're welcomed to join us again the next time you're in town. Cheers!!

    No real match for Vining. But good news is that he said my friend and I are "C" level.
