Friendly badminton club catering to all abilities. We play three times a week in Trevs and once at Maiden Castle with inter-collegiate matches at weekends. We offer both informal and fun game-orientated sessions as well as team-based competitive sessions with the chance of representing the men’s, women’s, or mixed teams. Players new to the sport are welcomed and we have a precedent of beginners going on to represent teams and later join the exec. Our main aim is to cultivate an inclusive and welcoming badminton club for all Trevs members whilst maintaining the competitive success of our teams in the inter-collegiate league. Whether you are an experienced player looking for competitive matches or have never picked up a racket, we encourage you to come down to our sessions.
