Georgia Tech always has a decent amount of players of all levels on Fridays, , Thursdays and Tuesdays...you will need to buy a visitor pass tho.

Perimeter Church is the best bet, if you want top notch competition.

there is a club, but you don't have to be in the club to play...the only reason why a club was formed was to be able to reserve courts.

I moved into dunwoody, GA area yesterday, and will not be able to sleep peacefully until i find a place to play badminton. After reading your posts, i went to perimeter badminton clubs' website only to find out that they aren't accepting any more players You think you can sneak me in

hehehe...ty Sir.. I'll be flying to FL on Sunday, so maybe, i can drop by tommorow. Ohh and btw, if by club leader you are referring to Mr. Ming, then i already had a brief discussion with him over the phone. Per him, the club is up2 its brim with new members and there are already 6-7 members in the waiting list. However, i will let you watch me play before you guys make a decision on whether or not i would be 'in' or 'out'

thanks...
P.S. is this the address where you guys play? 9500 Medlock Bridge Road, Duluth, GA 30097

P.P.S please feel free to contact me directly m_vai@yahoo.com

Hi guys, I recently moved to Atlanta. I'm also keen on playing badminton and saw that the Perimeter club are not accepting any new players... do you know what the average waiting period is to being accepted into the club?

Ok, to be able to put my name on the list should I come to the club during practice? I guess the address is the one you mentioned before.

I brought mine with me, too, but some players at the club sell badminton equipment. Try it there! :-)
