Hi! I´m also very new here! And - surprise, surprise - I´m also looking for courts and coaches in Bangkok. How long will you stay there? Due to buisness or just sightseeing? I´m going to life in BKK the next 3 years...
Play in Bangkok Hi Winzto, I am living in Bangkok, playing badminton almost everyday and can definitely assist you to find a good and nice place to play. When will you arrive in Bangkok and how long will you stay and what will you do here? Do you need any help in purchasing cheap/good quality rackets? Need help for accomdation? If there is anything that I can do for you, please don't hesitate to inform me via my email address i.e. porngris.b@thaiairways.com I am looking forward to seeing you here in Thailand. Porngris B.
In Bangkok, try the badminton courts (indoor) in the Lumpini Park (corner of Wireless Road and Soi ?? - not far from the US Embassy) They have coaches there. Groups also play there over the weekends - they are receptive to playing with players of similar standard. The people in the office are also very helpful, and direct you to find a coach too
That place you said is The Badminton Association of Thailand. Have many court have coach ex. MY HOUSE, BAN TONG YORD ect.
The Racket Club on Sukhumvit Soi 55 have 15 badminton courts, good coaches and also lots of people of all grades playing there, you can always find a group there to play with. They do good re-stringing there as well.
maybe you can help me too. I am looking for a suitable training camp for my students. about 20 to 30 of them. Need cheap place to stay and also coaching workshop for them. ckgan
