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
There is one synthetic court in Sind society, Aundh. Rs 100/hr. I`ve 2 hr slots with me for all weekends.
Thanks Buddy for the information Lets hope someone to join with you(i stay far away from Aundh or else i would have come along with u :crying
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. regards,parag

Some more Courts @ Pune : 1) Balewadi Sports Complex ... monthly membership fees to 500 for 1 hr , no time extensions allowed (Synthetic Turf ) 2) Heerabaug Sports Complex , Swargate . (Wooden Turf ) 3) College Of Engineering Pune , COEP , Shivaji Nagar , Near Sancheti Hospital , charges around 80 Rs / Hr (Synthetic Turf )
thanks Panky. Btw, do you have the contact number of Balewadi sports complex for membership matters? Appreciate if you can share it. rgds,parag
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
Parag, did you found a place for baddy? If not can join us at Aund on weekends. Titty Mathew- 9049316151
Wow This thread is moving now, many places in Pune to play Thanks everyone for sharing, please keep posting..
There are several courts near Kothrud & carve nagar. Even you can check for Solaris club near Kothrud.
balewadi sports complex http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shree_Shiv_Chhatrapati_Sports_Complex chk this link. I wen to the complex today, its Huge.. Even the badminton court are world class. Only hitch i guess is whats mentioned below by panky. Registration fees is little on higher side (around Rs.500-700 / month) and the erratic slots available.
