We're playing in Dao Duy Anh Court every sundays from 10h to 11h (1 court), 11h to 12h (3 courts) 12h to 14h (5 courts). You're welcome to join. We belong to the biggest and most active badminton forum in HCMC. www.caulong.com, we're developing an English box very soon, so you guys can come and take part. This is a big group with all sort of levels. I'm sure you'll have fun with us.

Will be in Ho Chi Minh for a short company trip in mid April. Just wondering how far are these badminton halls from New World Hotel (at District 1). Would like to get a workout and hopefully do some badminton shopping if time permits.

The badminton playing fee in HCMC may be cheapest in the world, about 1.5 USD per hour (not including shuttle cock). Further, if you stay there in a long time, you could register to become a member of above clups.

Hi mtakako,
There is a group of Malaysians and Singaporeans playing at Marie Curie School at District 1, near Diem Bien Phu side. You may walk in on Tuesday or Thursday about 2000hrs or you may go there on Sunday at 1800hrs to join them. This group speak English n hokkien dialect. Think you should not have any problem of communication. Suggest you contact Mr Awang or Mr Teoh. Enjoy yr games there

Thanks to Permanis for his help in this too.

Hi all!

I am desperately looking for an indoor badminton court in HCMC under the following criteria:
- central location (Q1 or Q3 best)
- courts systematically available in the evening during weekdays (through transparent booking or the such)
- user-friendly for non-Vietnamese speakers.

Any suggestions?

Cheers
