Hi, fellow badminton players. I'm new to Australia (migrated from Canada four months ago) and am looking for an intermediate-level badminton buddy or buddies for singles or doubles play in Melbourne. I played about 8 hours a week through my high school years and, on average, about once a month since then (I'm 29 now). I recently purchased a new racquet and am ready to go. Please leave me a (private) message here and I'll be sure to respond. I look forward to meeting ya. Cheers.
I am not a Melbourne local but you really should advise which part of Melbourne you're in. It's just because Melbourne is so geographically spread out and you'd usually only want to find local groups near you. There will be groups all over the place and usually around in the universities. Also have a look on Facebook for badminton groups. There is one in Clayton (south east of the city?) under the name badminton connect which it's a social group which you can join in Facebook.
There is a Doncaster badminton club http://www.dtba.info/club/contact.htm Otherwise have a look on the badminton Victoria website. http://www.badmintonvic.com.au Victor at Clayton runs badminton connect can probably intro some other people for you to join. https://m.facebook.com/badmintonconnect.au
Thanks again for the useful information, leongwaipak. I hope to be able to get back onto the court soon.
