Please don't suggest Indian Sports Club, they're wayyyyyy too expensive (US$ 4,500 just to join for the first year, and an additional US$ 500 annually)

I'm also looking for enthisiastic players to team with or play with... this game is very unpopular here so I haven't really found anyone.

JJ/Shiva,

I've checked Millenium Club site and found Al Jedeed Badminton Club is located near DNATA office.

Is it DNATA HQ at Clock tower ?

pls confirm

I have been to dubai for one day during my stopover to UK. I was amaze by their construction. Really wish to work in Dubai, but is kind of risky, knowing nothing and just go over there to start???
