princeTT said:Hi there! I am just wondereing if you would like to play badminton in HK. My family will be in HK on the 28th to the 31st of Oct. However, I am still looking for a good badminton club. Heard there are courts around Kowloon Park.
taneepak said:Try to contact Cheung Tung of Insksport by email or 'phone 97879118 and join him in his frequent badminton sessions, which are held in the Kowloon area, including the Kowloon Park courts and the nearby Kwun Chung courts. He has taken many badminton forum members to such badminton sessions. The costs come to about HK$50-HK$60 per person for a 3-4 hours session. If you have a lot of time to spare, you can join me in a more out-of-the-way location that requires a good two hours of commute. My sessions are dirt cheap, at less than HK$15 for 2 hours in air-conditioned comfort.![]()
princeTT said:Hey there! Nice of you to reply on my inquiry. We are going to stay at Holiday Inn. What is your relation with Cheung Tung? Will you also be there when we plan to play? I'll try to contact him/her(?) when we're already there. We are looking forward to playing in your country. I heard that there are a lot of good players in your place. We are just average Class C players. How about you? Sorry but we will only be staying there for 4 days. What time do you usually play? By the way, we are planning to buy badminton rackets and shoes when we get there. Where do you think will be the best place to buy them? What is your email address?
taneepak said:I live in the New Territories, which is not near the Golden Mile Holiday Inn. Unfortunately, I won't be there if you decide to play with him in the Kowloon Park area. It is just too far out of the way for me. Cheung Tung plays badminton with me periodically. His standard of play is about C. If you want to play with grade A or B players or even ex Hong Kong champions, he can arrange that too. He owns Inskysport and is an OEM supplier of badminton equipment and supplies. If you want to buy racquets and shoes, then he is about the best source.
I suggest you email Cheung Tung at inskysport@yahoo.com.hk re arrangement for a session or two of badminton around Oct. 28-30. I have spoken to Cheung Tung and he is expecting to hear from you.
I will pm you my email address separately.

timbar said:I am also british born chinese and a friend of wai. Am going to be in HK from 9th to 18th. I would love to pop along to a session. I live quite in the sticks and am in Sha Tau Kok!!.
Where did u say we can get sessions?
taneepak said:PrinceTT, Cheung Tung has made arrangements for a badminton night on Friday night, 8-10pm, Oct. 29. Other details in a separate pm to you.
For Machiko, you are welcome to join them. Suggest you call Cheung Tung at 97879118 just to confirm, as Cheung is aware of your interest in joining in the fun.
There will be about 15 players, including 4 from PrinceTT, Machiko and 10 players from Cheung Tung's side, who are grades B and C, possibly including Mr Ng of Luxis sports (grade B).
