Hi,
Is there a cost/time attached to each of these courts?
Specifically, I am looking for this information for -
1. Prakash Padukone Badminton academy, Modern Colony
2. Shivaji housing society, Off Senapati Bapat Road

Also how much earlier should i book the courts if i want a 2 hr session on a weekend?
If you have played at any of these courts, please let me know on these.
Thanks in advance!

Prakash padukone academy usually picks people who played/playing in Nationals

The court at senapati bapat road has to be booked early
it charges 75/hr and there are two wooden courts available in there
you need to contact them directly for the Slot

Hi Hemanth, tittymat,
I am rellocating to pune, wakad towards end-Jul and am keen to join some group to continue my love for this game...looking for preferably a wooden court and membership or daily booking is fine. Level of game is intermediate...appreciate if you can help give me any leads or if possible hookup with any existing group playing nearby. thanks bros.

Parag , I would have to search for the numbers . Leme check . The problem would be like for any enquiry you have to essentially visit the Sports Complex ( Mon- Sat ) during working hrs : 10:00 - 05:00 .

Just a personal experience , the time slots available would be something like late mornings / late evening something like 11:00 in the mornings and as late as 10:30 in the evenings

Rest would be your luck . Would search for the number and share
