    Hello! I used to play in Rizal but that was years ago. Lately, I've been playing in Shuttlezone. Not bad for an amateur like me. I've also tried in Toss N Smash but the lighting is awful (we usually play at night). Plus the security sucks. My side mirror was stolen and I've heard some friends who have had a bad experience there...tsk...tsk...tsk!!!

    Hello my Filipino and Chinese Friends! I'm Filipino-Chinese I play at Ayala Alabang Country Club in Muntinlupa but play most of the time at La Pavillion Manila Bay coz most of my friends think Alabang is too far. La Pavillion has a really nice ambiance, rubberized floor and has an excellent parking (you can park 30 tanks in that area and you still have space). And I really love the crowd their.

    Hi guys, I also came from the Philippines although I never got to play badminton when I was there. I saw someone in school play it once though, I never got to try it then but I knew that I was going to like it. My family left the Philippines when I was 13yrs old and we haven't gone back since.

    I used to play at CHUTs but now I'm playing in Rizal and Smashers at Ortigas. Those guys who played at Smashers, have you watched the finals of the PI Club tournament last Saturday? It's a thrilling match!

    the courts along e rodriguez (C5) near king arthur's court is Shuttle's Best (yup that's the name......:D ) 6 courts, open, no membership required. 180/hour. I think they have a player's fee of 25 bucks during the peak hours.

    Hope this helps.

    hey jingo!

    are u a member of pi club? i'm sort of friends with the owners of smashers court. i heard about the exciting matches of the pi club tourney. :)

    i did a profile of pi club for one badminton website. i think your name rings a bell as one of the pioneer members of that club. :D

    Yes, I'm a member of PI club. The owners were also my friends and members. :) The owners were the champions of the tourney and they were pioneers and I just came late. :p I hope we could play one time at Smashers :D
