    You can also get the Ricmond catalog because it lists all the community centers here which have badminton.

    For Richmond on Sunday's it's for all ages. I was thinking of playing at Thompson today at 11:15am but it's canceled for the holiday.

    Here you go. Note: The South Arm on Friday is incorrect.

    As I mainly play in Richmond CC's, I always call the CC incase it's cancelled.

    Nope, but probably in your best interest that you use them because regular shoes are not designed for the foot movements you do in badminton. One move could make you slip and fall which injure your ankle, if you know what I mean.

    There is badminton at Britannia Community Services Centre on Friday nights from 7pm - 10pm (cost is $3.50) and Saturday afternoons from 1:15 - 5pm (cost is $4.50). It's closed for 2 weeks right now and will reopen on January 5, 2007. We accept both youths and adults for play there so you are more than welcome to join (plus badrad comes and chitchats with us and plays once in a while as well).
