Beginners Courses for 2022!

If you are starting out in our sport or are returning after some time, we can help!

We are organising two BEGINNERS’ COURSES where you can learn essential skills to play enjoyable badminton.

• Rackets, kit and grips
• Rules and scoring
• The court
• Movements and stands, for Singles and Doubles
• The serves
• Lifts and drives
• Smashes and drops

Each session runs for just 60 minutes and then you can play and improve with our experienced members for another hour. A course runs for six individual hours, over six weeks. Start time is 7.30 pm on Wednesday evenings at Simon Langton Boys School, Canterbury.

When you register for a course you will become an Associate Member of the Club. PLEASE NOTE; Numbers per course are no more than eight, so please get in touch soon to secure your place!
