About
Welcome to the Weill Cornell Badminton Club. If you're a badminton enthusiast looking to play on campus, you've come to the right place! The club aims to provide a platform for Weill Cornell students, fellows, postdocs, faculty, staff and affiliates to play badminton regularly. The objective of the club is to help its members to improve their skills while socializing with other players. Going forward, we hope to have a competitive team which can participate in nationwide tournaments to gain more exposure and further improve skills.
Skill
We encourage interested players of all skill levels to enroll in the club. However just to make it easier for everyone, we request players to indicate their level of play:
- Beginner (trying it for the first time)
- Intermediate (recreational player)
- Expert (competitive player)
Equipment
We welcome players to just show up to get a feel of the club, meet other players and decide on their future participation. For such players, we have rackets and birdies available. However if you are planing to come regularly, we strongly recommend you to bring your own rackets.
Fee
Active, regular members would be required to contribute $25 per semester. We would use the funds to buy new birdies. These funds would also be used to promote the club to bring in more people!
Location
Currently we have one court reserved in the Olin Gym (445 E. 69th Street) for two days in a week,
7 pm to 9 pm on Thursdays
5 pm to 7 pm on Saturdays
As more players enroll for the club, we might also be looking at reserving the court for an additional day. We currently have an active Google group where club members can post their availability and participate in discussions.
