Hi Neil, it all depends on your standard. I know of two clubs which have a "badminton buffet" as they call it, which means you go along from 7 to 11pm, pay 150 or so baht and the organiser puts you on randomly playing doubles pairings. One is at the 71 sports club in Phra Kanong, the other is at the badminton club in Sathu Pradit (very hard to get to). Both are good standards, Sathu being busier and better. For a proper club, it's M Badminton Club at the courts off Pahonyotin - they have a facebook page. Just one other foreigner plays there (oh, plus a Japanese or two). This club has more serious training schedules, logod kit, club vs club tournaments.

Thanks! When is the Badminton buffet at the 71 club?

It's on Friday evenings, 7pm onwards...as you go in it's the 2 courts on the right. Couple of the younger guys speak English.

In that case, I'll definitely try to make it next week. You planning on going again?

[ThailandNeil]

Yes probably next week!
