Badminton
About
The Badminton Club has both a competitive women’s as well as a men’s team. However, in case you are not selected as a player for the team, you can still participate in club-wide activities throughout the academic year. Moreover, we also have off-court club events and team events, such as dinners and movie nights.

Equipment needed: Please wear indoor sport shoes and sport clothing. Rackets will be provided during the trial. If you have your own racket, please bring it to the session if possible.
