    Hello,

    I am planning to take 3 months off for an intensive course in Japanese in Osaka and would like to continue to play badminton.

    Are there any clubs or good places I should search to play at? My badminton is intermediate and I can speak some Japanese as well. I will most likely have class in the morning and be free to play afternoons and evenings.

    Thank you, I hope I can enjoy some smashes, drops, and clears in Osaka! (And then some Takoyaki and beer afterward, mmmm...)

    - Jeff

    It isn't confirmed yet, but potentially from Mar 29 - June 27 (will post back here when confirmed). Tokyo seems easier to find games from what I've seen so far.

    Hi Jeff

    I am going to Osaka as well and look for a place to play badminton. Did you find a good place?

    Cheers

    I'll be coming there from Iwo Jima this December, please share the Badminton Information. If there are Centers located beside or near Shinto Buddhist Temples, I would be most thankful.
