Actually, keep me in mind, i'd like to play sometimes. I have probably played 15-20 times in my life, so can hold a racket but am no pro!

Thanks for your interest. The place I know is Vernets, which is by the river near Plainpalais. If anyone knows any other place to play badminton that would be a useful info. They have been a bit weird with the bookings lately.

Hi Andrew, it has been a while since I have not played badminton. Therefore I would like to join you playing. Since I have not brought my racket here in Geneva, do you know where can I buy one at a reasonable price and more or less, how much will I spent playing badminton? Thanks in advance!

Hi, I am interested. I know how to play but am not a pro. Queue d Arve is the best place, otherwise cologny 022 349 81 19. In both places booking is challenging !

Hi Andrew, I'd like to play badminton just for fun too! But like Angel, I don't have a racket out here yet. Also, were you thinking of playing in the evenings? Thanks, David

Where to buy? Depends on your budget. If you want a reasonably nice one then go to a sports shop. There will be some choice there as well. But dont expect to find cheaper than 50 fr and sometimes they might have these 'cheap' ones out of stock meaning cheapest comes at 100fr. A friend of mine bought a 10fr racket in a some big Migros shop somewhere in geneva. I guess it depends on your level as well. I like to pay a bit more for so that the racket is lighter and "whacks the air better".


Once you are all equipped maybe we can organise something.

I think as my skill level is not too high, a 100fr racket is probably not going to help me much. I'll go for something in between. I see intersport has some reasonably priced rackets on their website so I might head over to St Genis to get one.

I think you misunderstood my point. 100fr doesnt mean its a top of the range racket. 100fr is considered a cheap normal racket in geneva sports shops... because this is geneva. But yes if you go to France you can probably get the same racket they sell for 100fr for 30 euro.

I have found some, but we can still play. Do you have a racket? There seems to be quite a few people interested now. Maybe we can organise some badminton event.
