    Returning to the badminton after a number of years but not bad at all -- at least very enthusiastic, can run around like an inspired fool and sometimes make my opponents do the same. Singles games preferred for now. I work in the City and live in Sutton. Please get in touch if interested

    I'm a student at London Met and unfortunately I have a lecture on the day they have practices (thursday) so, If you are OK to travel to the University (which is in holloway), I can join you.

    FYI, I used to play for the school team and kind out of touch now so might need to warm up a bit. Also, I'm a guy (not sure if this matters coz I don't know whether you are a girl or a guy). If you are ok, let me know
    erangaima@gmail.com

    I'm free every week day after 6 PM except on Thursdays and I'm also free on the weekends.

    Thanks
    Eranga

    Hi, I thought you said around the SW area, thats South West of London, but Leytonstone is at E17 area, its a bit far for me as i hate driving up to the East side of London, is there any chance that maybe we can meet up half way or maybe i can treat you to play at my club in Wimbledon, its superbly purposed built badminton courts with lovely wooden soft floors. from David

    Hi Lingyai

    I was looking like mad guy for a good badminton clubs and players for the last few weeks and met a lot of cold responses. However, I just found the charing cross club that has two dedicated court just for badminton, which is just across the street where I am living. I just arrive in London 3 weeks ago. I am looking for good players or players with high spirit to take the risk of being move around the court like crazy. I will be glad if you can join me =).

    kc
