    My wife and I will be in Calgary for vacation Dec. 21-23 (Tuesday to Thursday) and interested in playing some badminton. Our level is probably intermediate with some formal training experience with a former Chinese National player. We were wondering where we might go in Calgary to get some good matches in?

    You can drop by Cardel Place located in the NorthWest. It's near a movie theatre (Studio 16) and Superstore.

    If your looking for good matches to play, you can try going into drop in on wednesday@Bearspaw Badminton Club, 3 courts starts at 8-10:30pm, contact Polo Ung at 403-617-7656 in advance to reserve drop in. Most people there play plastic because it's supply with the 7 dollar drop in fee. Player there have thier own feather birdies too if you prefer playing that, the level there is decent, or on Wednesday you can try Chinook Winds Adventist Academy 7:00pm to 10:00pm, drop in fee also 7 dollars with 3 courts, lvl there is also good contact dgrantung@yahoo.com , jeffhuangid@gmail.com to reserve spots. Im also a intermediate player, with some training with the beijing team awhile back, i wouldn't mind playing with you and your wife, you can reach me at g0dblissyou@gmail.com
