BADMINTON NEWS
20 FEB : The sports hall at Pimlico Academy will be closed due to school exams on these weekdays: Wed 26 Feb-Fri 28 Feb, Mon 3 Mar-Fri 7 Mar, Mon 10 Mar-Wed 12 Mar. All of our sessions on Saturdays & Sundays will be running as normal.
+ Do you have spaces available at a particular sports session?
You can check for places by going to the sports page for adults or kids, select the sport, select the session, and on that page it will state if there are places available. And you can go ahead and book your place there.
+ Do you do individual 1-to-1 coaching?
No we don't do 1-to-1 coaching. We only do group coaching sessions. Our coaches do give individual feedback during the group training. Also note that for team sports it's best to train with other players.
+ What do I need to wear/bring to the sports sessions?
On the sports session page, there's a section that explains what to wear and bring.
+ Can you tell me a bit about a particular session/sport?
Please see the adults or kids sports session pages, and then if you have any specific questions you're welcome to send us a Whatsapp message.
+ Which type of trainers should I wear?
We recommend wearing trainers that are specifically designed for the sport that you'll be playing as they will be designed to support your feet in the correct way and prevent injuries. We advise against wearing fashion trainers as these are unlikely to offer suitable support or grip.
ADULT SPORTS FAQ
+ What is block booking?
Block booking is paying for 3 months for a particular adult sports session. This is normally by calendar quarter (Jan-Mar, Apr-Jun, etc). This gives you cheaper fees, ensures you stay consistent and committed, removes the need to book every week, guarantees you a place to play, and helps our club maintain a consistent number of players at every session. This is for the same fixed session for a fixed date period, and there's no credits, refunds or alternatives for missed sessions.
+ Do you have monthly or annual membership?
For adult sports sessions we offer quarterly block booking payment. We don't currently offer monthly or annual membership payments.
+ If I block book then can I attend any session each week?
No, block booking is for the same one fixed session every week, and it's not possible to attend a different session.
+ If I block book then can I attend multiple sessions per week?
No, block booking is for the same one fixed session every week, and it's not possible to attend other sessions. However you are welcome to book to play at other sessions separately.
+ Is there a discount for joining with friends?
No, not at the moment.
+ Is there a discount for block booking multiple sessions?
No, not at the moment.
+ I'm not sure what my skill level is. Which level should I join?
Beginners sessions are for less athletic players who haven't played the sport before or who have only played occasionally, and are looking to join a medium paced coaching session or games session where they can learn and improve further. Intermediate level sessions are for players who have played regularly for a few years, and can mostly play well without needing advice. Advanced level sessions are for athletic players who have been playing regularly in high level teams for many years. If you're still not sure which level to join then make a best guess and we can see how to get on at the session.
+ I want to get back into a particular sport. I haven't played for many years, but used to be quite good. Which level should I choose?
That's great that you want to start playing again. You should book yourself in for a beginner/improver session first as this will allow to test your skills and fitness. If you want a refresher on the necessary skills then you should book a coaching session. You can ask the coach or session organiser to advise on which level is suitable for you.
+ Do you do coaching sessions for adults?
Yes, we have adult coaching sessions for all of our sports. Go to the adults sports page, select a sport, and in the list of sessions you'll find the coaching sessions. You can use the filter to show only coaching sessions.
+ Can I watch a session to see what it's like?
No, we have a strict no spectators policy. You can see some photos on the front page of our website and also on our Instagram. Our sessions are friendly and welcoming so the best thing to do is book yourself in for an individual session and see how you get on.
+ Can I take photos and video clips at a session?
No, we don't allow taking photos or videos at sessions.
+ How many players will there be at a particular session?
We don't give out live booking numbers as the numbers are constantly changing and players can book right up to the session start time, but we normally have good numbers at all of our sessions.
+ I booked a place for a sports session but can't make it any more. Can I get a refund or reschedule the booking?
Our club policy is that there are no refunds. If you've booked an individual session then if you send us a Whatsapp message at least 6 working hours in advance then we can give you a credit to rebook. Working hours are 9am-9pm every day. It's not possible to reschedule an individual session that was already previously rescheduled, and it's not possible to reschedule a block booking.
ADULTS BADMINTON FAQ
+ Do you hire out badminton racquets?
No, you need to bring your own badminton racquet. It's not possible to rent or borrow one from us. You can buy a racquet (racket) from a local sports store for £10+.
+ Do you provide shuttlecocks at the badminton sessions?
Yes we provide shuttlecocks at our badminton sessions. You're welcome to bring your own shuttles if you want to play with a specific type.
+ Do you play with feather or plastic shuttlecocks at the badminton sessions?
We play with Yehlex Club feather shuttlecocks at some sessions and we have Yonex 600 fast plastic shuttles at other sessions. The Yonex 600 fast shuttles fly similar to good feather shuttles. You can see the type of shuttles on each session page.
+ Do I need to bring a partner to play with at the badminton sessions?
No you don't need to bring a partner to the badminton sessions. You can come to play by yourself and you'll play doubles games with other players at the sessions. However if you have friends who would also enjoy playing then you can send them the booking page link so they can book a place for themselves.
+ How many badminton courts are there?
Normally there are 4 courts at all badminton sessions, unless otherwise stated on the booking page.
+ Do you play singles or doubles at the badminton sessions?
Normally we play doubles, however if players are not waiting to play then you're welcome to play a singles game.
VENUES FAQ
+ I can't find the entrance to the sports hall. Can you help me?
We are busy when the sessions are on, and can't offer individual guidance. However to make it easy for you to find the sports hall entrance we've put exact map links, a photo of the correct entrance gate, and any other relevant info on the booking page so please look there. Most of the sports venues have multiple entrance gates and we should be using a specific entrance which may be different from the entrance shown on your map app. Also check that the entrance is the same as the photo of the entrance shown on the session booking page.
+ The venue entrance doors are locked and there's nobody there. Can you help me?
Firstly check that you're at the correct entrance gate. Most of the sports venues have multiple entrance gates and we should be using a specific entrance which may be different from the entrance shown on your map app. Also check that the entrance is the same as the photo of the entrance shown on the session page. If you're at the correct entrance but the venue staff are away from the reception desk then see if there's a number on the entrance gate or door to call the reception staff, and give them a call. Only after you've checked all of this, you can send us a Whatsapp message and we'll get back to you as soon as we can.
+ Are there changing rooms, showers, bike racks, car parking, etc?
This varies for each venue and also can vary by day. See the "Location" section on the session page, and there you can see details of all of the facilities available at the venue.
+ I left my belongings at the sports hall. How can I get them back?
If we find any lost property then we'll normally notify the venue staff. You need to contact the venue for lost property and ask them to check in the sports hall, and you can arrange to collect it from there.
