    Hi Miyuki san,
    I am a big badminton fan. I am from China, working in Singapore right now and going to stay in Japan for 1 year. Could you help me to look for a club to play badminton? Any help will be greatly appreciated.:)
    My level is intermediate, I can play any day in the evening. I am going to be at Ibaraki-shi,Osaka. It is not a big city, so I am not sure if there is any badminton club there. But I am willing to travel if it is not too far from Ibaraki-shi.
    Thank you and my email is emailchao@gmail.com
    Regards,
    chao

    Hi, Chao

    Yes, I help you to find a place to play.
    I know Ibaraki-shi, because I played badminton in Suita-shi next to Ibaraki-shi:D
    There are many badminton clubs in Osaka.

    I send you a mail soon.

    talk to you soon

    Hello!!
    I just arrived in Tokyo and will stay for 6 months, and I really want to get back to playing on a regular basis :) I live in Roppongi and work in Marunouchi, does anyone know where to play not too far? Please tell me, I don't speak japanese and it's difficult to find information on the web :D

    Hi,

    Welcome to Tokyo:D

    Tell me your badminton level. Do you have a racket and a pair of shoes for badminton?

    You know, it is humid in Tokyo now. Almost club use a gym in a school. There are not some air conditioner in the gyms. So it is very hot and humid in a gym. Is it OK?

    Hello Miyuki, thanks for your prompt reply :)
    regarding my level, I've been playing for 3 years in my club in France, but never played in any tournaments. I play doubles and singles, and I love both. I'm definitely not a beginner anymore, and I'm getting back to a decent fitness level thanks to my gym. I love competitive games, with people who really mean playing. I did bring one of my rackets with me from Paris, and I also have my shoes, so that makes me ready to play I guess :p
    Regarding the weather, well, that's expected isn't it? I'll give it a shot, and I'll see how it goes... No air conditionning in my local gym either, and it does get pretty hot too these days...

    Dear Miyuki,

    I hope you still view this forum as I can see you have been very helpful to other people in my position.

    I will come to Japan for 2 or 3 years from 1st September. I will live near Seijo and will work near Musashi Kosugi.

    I noted that you play(ed?) at a club near Musashi Kosugi? It is still going?

    Any advice about where to play would be great.

    Best Regards,
    Gareth

    Welcome to Japan!

    When you know the nearest station, let me know it. I may tell you other club near your place.

    Bring your racket and shoes at least.

    I am looking forward to playing with you !

    take care of your trip

    Hi, Alex

    There are 2 shops in Shibuya. Thier websites are as following.
    They have some branches. So check "渋谷” in the website.

    *Windsor
    http://www.windsorracket.co.jp/shop/shop_shibuya.html
    5 minutes from Shibuya station for a walk

    *Wembley
    http://www.bps-wembley.com/
    1 minutes from Shibuya station for a walk

    There is a police station next to Hachiko exit on Shibuya station. Ask them with their map or address when you are lost. You can find them easily.

    Miyuki

    Hi to all members of this forum..first i want to introduce myself, i'm Chris from Makuhari-cho, Chiba. I'm a Filipino working here in Japan. My colleagues have suggested we find a place to play badminton, and so i browse the internet and i ended up in this forum which i think will become very informative...what caught my attention was Miyuki-san's tireless efforts in helping forum members fit in with their respective locations and i wish Miyuki-san can help me too in finding a place where we can play badminton...and hoping we can play with her too. You have a nice forum here..keep up the good work guys and gals.

    Hi Miyuki, I'm wondering whether there are any clubs that I can play at in Nara, around the Ikoma (生駒) region. It would be great if you could help me find one, so that I'll have something to do when I go back to Japan in December. :D

    Best regards,
    jhirata
