Started in August 2021, Mini Badminton is a new club session on Fridays from 5pm – 7pm in the National Badminton Centre (Courts 5-7) for 6 -9 year olds. This is aimed at newer players and emphasis will be on badminton skills development, exercise and of course having fun.
Players around 9 who have played before and can hit a shuttle confidently and rally a bit should aim to join the early club session at the same time (5pm – 7pm) in the main sports hall. However Mini’s should be able to manage that skill level within its session if the time doesn’t suit; there’s a waiting list; they want to come with friends etc.
The cost is £6 a week (pay only when you attend) because we have an improved court/coach ratio with numbers limited to 20. In addition club annual membership will be expected after four weeks attendance when we know both parents and children are happy.
The club expects this will help meet the demand we are seeing for youngsters starting the sport.
The club would like to recognise the help from Glasgow Sport staff along with financial help from its Sport and Physical Activity Fund in getting this new venture started.
