    Yes, they are very good.

    My friend at the VRC says some of the best players around town come from that college.

    Surrey area drop-in

    If you're still around - looking for players who know what they're doing to drop-in at SunGod in N. Delta on Thurs: 8:00-10:45 and Sunday am 8:00-10:45

    SunGod

    They have a website, but to save you the trouble:

    From Scott Rd. (120th St) go west on 80th Ave, make a left onto 112th St (south) and take the 2nd right into SunGod.

    It's free to join SunGod, drop-ins are $4.50, bring your own birds (although someone will have them). Everyone uses plastics but after being a die-hard feather player for years, they're not too bad.

    Ymca?

    That would be 9-11 PM, Mondays right?

    The Tong Louie YMCA in Surrey also charges a $10 drop-in fee if I'm not mistaken.

    The best thing to do is take the initial plunge and get out playing somewhere, doesn't matter where. From the contacts you'll make, you'll quickly find where to play at a level that you are comfortable with.

    Isn't there badminton at Collingwood Neighbourhood House near your area? There's also badminton at Bonsor Community Complex.
