    Hi all, the above posting was sometime last year. Just wondering if there are still active? Or are any other sessions active around Melbourne? Will be in Melbourne either sometime end of June or July. Hopefully can join some of you guys 2-3 times a week. Oh yea, one more thing, is there a bus or tram/train to MSAC? What would be the transport number? Thanks!

    Yep, there is a tram to MSAC. Tram number 96 to St Kilda Beach. You can catch it from Spencer St. Stop at the Wright St stop and MSAC is right next to it.

    Melbourne Uni socials are thurs, sat & sun.
    CCC Badminton Friday is not members only
    MSAC socials are $11.50? $10 last time i checked.
    Pretty sure RMIT badminton is sunday afternoon at MSAC around 1pm now...
    Flemington badminton needs an address, a lot of people have been looking for it ;p

    I created the list a little while back, but I have updated the data when the organiser's of the social club gives me new info. eg/ day of play, start & end times, cost and contact info.

    What are the exact start & end times and cost for the Altona socials on sat & sun ?
    What are the exact start & end times and cost for the Melbourne Uni socials on thurs, sat & sun.
    Please provide updated details for CCC Badminton socials.
    Are MSAC socials $11.50 or $10.
    Please confimr exact times for RMIT social badminton.
    Someone drove me to the social at Flemington but I do not know the place.
