Monday night badminton at Harris Girls Academy


Recommended Posts

Do you fancy a game of badminton on Monday nights?


We run a badminton session for adults every Monday from 7pm-9pm at Harris Girls' Academy East Dulwich Homestall Road, London SE22 0NR.


There are 3 courts available and we play doubles as well as mixed and if numbers permit you also get to play a few singles matches.


The standard is intermediate and up - so if play elsewhere on a regular basis and need a new challenge or you haven?t played in a while and want to get fit again, this is the session to try.


The cost is ?6.50 for two hours (first time you only pay ?3.50) and includes shuttles as well as friendly banter.


There is plenty of parking right outside the school and we are close to various bus stops: 484 & 343(2 min walk) and 63 & 363 (4min walk away)


So just bring yourself and your racket and come by some time.

Hi Si


We've been quite busy lately but we've never turned anyone away. However, it might be that you have to sit out quite a few matches in between.


Alternatively we also play Saturday mornings from 9am-12pm and have four courts then so a better chance to give it a go if that's suitable for you?


If Saturday mornings don't work (it's the morning after a Friday night after all..) there is also another session run on Friday nights in Harris Girls Academy from 8pm-10pm which has 4 courts for matches for all abilities and with the occasional tuition (sign up online via Fun Friday Badminton on Meet up or get one of their walk in slots on the day by turning up on time).

    • When did it change? I had no idea!  Apologies for giving wrong information!
    • If it is time to buy a replacement bike for one of your children you could try the Bike Project that are doing a 20 % sale on some of their refurbished bikes, including a number of children's ones.   General advice on buying for kids.  No more than 8 gears.  You don't need suspension or other gizmos.  Don't buy mail order.  Don't buy Apollos from Halfords, so heavy, poor build and a pain to work on.   You get what you pay for but there are always reasonably priced second hand ones, including on this website. Decent models include Boardman, Ridgeback, Isla, Squish.  Frog are popular and OK but the later models moved from a shimano trigger shift to their own, which are bad.  And they have now ceased production.  The reach was too long too.  Woom are fantastic but very expensive.  Go for trigger (thumb and finger) when they go for multiple gears not the grip (twist) gear shifters. BMX bikes are not necessarily good on the road. Do ask your primary school about free training (Bikeability)  You can also try bike clubs where you pay a subscription and change the bike as the kids get older. https://bikeclub.com/?gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=1955313524&gclid=CjwKCAjw687NBhB4EiwAQ645dmN_e5OD3ycc60VCVO6D9DNEv7zkMjzy4j6_m2Nf9PMNaPJ86f8O7BoChxEQAvD_BwE Pick up and compare different models in the shop.  I prefer independents but you can get a decent deal at Halfords, Decathlon and the like. Correcting my comment on Frog, whilst they have gone into administration they are still manufacturing and have relocated production from China to Wales.  Good stuff.
