arthurwait Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 There's one near Ekammi. I'll have to ask where it is though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gibson123 Posted April 12, 2013 Author Share Posted April 12, 2013 Ok Arthurwait, thanks for the reply. However, no idea where Ekammi is? I'm in Naklua, but anywhere in Pattaya is OK with me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gibson123 Posted April 12, 2013 Author Share Posted April 12, 2013 Thanks mate, I found nothing on google.....really appreciate your help. BTW, if anyone is interested in any club sport.....bowling, football etc, etc with a bit of socialising afterwards (Some beers)....everyweek, and something we could do with the wives, or without, could be a good idea, no?

HanSRT10 Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 Can do with some exercise, so lets see what happens in the days ahead. Think the missus might want to give badminton a try as well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrispbacon Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 There's a badminton court on 3rd road near south Pattaya road called Diamond. It is not air conditioned but you can meet many people from the expat community. I used to be a member of the expat badminton facebook group. All this is run by Niels Colov of Pattaya People Media Group so I suggest you contact him for playing days. I believe Tuesday/Thursday at 19:30.

gibson123 Posted April 13, 2013 Author Share Posted April 13, 2013 Thanks for the info crispbacon......Just to let anyone interested in the badminton know that I am on my way to Kabin Buri for a family get-together today, and back on the 20th. I will have no internet there, so I will reply when I get back. Happy songkran! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

topt Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 A group use to play at the Ambassador on a weekly basis. Not sure if they still play there or not. It does not have AC. I thought there was a squash group there - do they play badminton as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jayman Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 I've been playing at Diamond Badminton on 3rd road 3x a week for a few weeks now. I''m not sure I'd get as much out of it if it was air conditioned. The whole reason I go is for a good sweat and to get my heart rate up for an hour. It's a great workout. Diamond opens daily at 2pm (closed the 18-19th for Songkran) and the one directly across the street from it opens at 4pm. No idea if that one is closed for the holidays. It's much smaller and has only 4 courts but also only costs 100thb per hr vs Diamond which is 130thb/hr. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

udonthani1 Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 (edited) I am a member of Tony's gym and I usually train in Naklua. There are 2 courts which are unused 99% of the time. I am allowed to bring a guest for free and I have 2 rackets. Does anyone want to play? I'm very amateur but I want to have some fun cardio (as opposed to the boring cardio I usually do...). Please send me a message if interested. Thank you. Edited July 23, 2013 by Rimmer Coloured fonts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
