Wouldn't it be nice if there was a place like SGVBC in Torrance/Gardena??

I'm just curious how many people would be interested in a large multi court facility in the Torrance/ Gardena area? It takes me about 50 mins to get to SGVBC from my home because there aren't too many place to play in the south bay area.

You can drive closer to mar vista recreation center on mondays and wednesdays from 7 - 10pm. You can look it up on google.

Costs:$4 and they provide you with all the feathered shuttles you can use.

Players of all levels and friendly atmosphere as well.

..Santa Monica College??..Opens every Sunday from 12pm til 8pm. Costs $4 to $6 to play...Plenty of courts, i believe 7-8 courts, and waiting time is not too bad-depends if there are many people playing or not..Many different playing levels as well..

You might want to take a look at Mahattan Beach Badminton Club, only 5 courts though.

3 courts at mar vista but lighting and ceiling height is the best in my opinion. Doesnt get too crowded but sometimes it does. There is just a signup board so everyone gets too play equally.

Manhattan beach badminton club is a private club and you would have to know someone to get in to play there.

Come to mar vista..you will have fun!
