We are a self-regulating bunch of folks that meet and play together to enjoy the sport of badminton. There aren’t any rules specific to the club but we do follow certain guidelines to ensure we all have a good time at the gym.

1. Most of us play doubles to maximize court usage. If there is no one waiting and you see an open court feel free to play singles as long as you want or can ☺
2. The club has eight courts that allow for plenty of play time. In case you see people waiting for the courts please be courteous and limit your time to one game at one time. You can warm up before the game but limit your warm up time depending on the crowd waiting.
3. The club has players with different skill levels. For the best enjoyment of the game,  it is generally beneficial for you to play with players that are at about the same skill levels. Best way to find your level? Come and play!
4. Most of us play with feather birdies/shuttle-cocks. Each one of us supplies a fresh bird at the start of each game and then uses them as they get worn out. The players take turn in supplying the birdies for the game. Feather birdies are more expensive but they offer a much more rewarding badminton experience as you get more involved with the sport. 
   However feel free to use the synthetic birdies if you can find other players that have the same affinity. If you want to know how you can get some feather birds, please see info@annarborbadminton.org
5. Swearing, intimidation and physical altercation of any kind is absolutely not tolerated. Please remember that we are all here to have a good time and not qualify for the Olympics.
6. If you are new to the sport it might be a good idea to get some lessons or training to learn some basic techniques and rules about the sport. Watch this space for more information (coming soon).
