An open session for new club members is held on the first Sunday in September at 10am. Players take part in a free coaching session and parents are invited to stay, watch and speak with the coaches. At the end of the session, players are advised as to the most suitable section for them.

But don’t worry if you have missed it!  New members are also welcome to join throughout the season and anyone who is interested should contact the club.

If we do not currently have space available, we do operate a waiting list.

Performance Centre Sessions are by invitation – players are selected from club members and local schools and talent ID days. For more information about the Performance Centre, please go to the separate tab under Badminton.
