    Next time I'm in the city I'll have to get some playing in! I play 6 days a week here in Cape Breton now after a 7 year absense from the game, i'm hooked again already :)

    There are other clubs, you could try this website: http://www.halifax.ca/recreation/register.html

    Fleet Center Badminton Club didn't run this year, there weren't enough people. The Military charges too much for gym time, even from its own ranks.

    I would like to know if there is a single badminton club playing feather anywhere in Metro anymore.... I honestly doubt it.
