I`m going to Vilamoura this summer. Does anyone know whether there are places to play there? I`m going on 3 July for a week. If there are places and you are also there and fancy playing, give us a shout.
Never played in Algarve but I know there are places to play. Following is a link from a badminton fanatic in Portugal http://www.lusobadminton.superzip.net/, where he list the contact for Algarve area. Algarve badminton association Associação de Badminton do Algarve President : José Armando Guita Silva Address : Rua do Município, Bl. 97 R/C Dtº 8400 Lagoa Telephone : 289416466 Fax: 289416465 Clubs listed in Portuguese badminton association page: Silves Futebol Clube – SFC Rua Francisco Pablos, 18 e 20 Apartado 92 8300-999 Silves Clube de Futebol Esperança de Lagos – CFEL Secção de Badminton Praça Luis de Camões, 22 – 1º 8600-669 Lagos Associação Cultural Desportiva CHE Lagoense – CHEL Rua do Municipio, Bloco 97 R/C Dtº Parchal 8400 Lagoa Gil Eanes Juventude Portimonense Clube - GEJPC Edificio Gil Eanes, bloco a – 8º D Largo Gil Eanes 8500 Portimão I think Vilamoura is located in Quarteira or close by if not in mistake. Can try contacting the regional association and check which club is closest to where you are staying. The clubs listed here are all situated to the west of Quarteira. It took over an 1 hr drive from Quarteira to Portimão as far as I could remember. The last time I was in that area was about 15 yaers ago, so the roads could have improved a lot. Good luck!
