We play with a few groups. I never seen kids/teenagers at these group unless their parents are playing. I think that's quite a difficult age to find a group to play, unless he has friends in school that plays. You can try looking around at:

Hi! My son aged 11 is interested to play badminton socially on regular basis but he can't find boys of similar age to play with him. We stay near Novena/Toa Payoh area. Any of your boys interested?

Some CCs have once-a-week courses. You can check out Toa Payoh East CC. Do drop by and take a look at the class first to see if it is suitable for your son (as well as coach-kids ratio, ...).

If your son wants to play well, you can consider group personal coaching. He can improve much faster with a small coach-kid ratio while playing with other boys in the class.

Thanks, coast. My son did attend one of their holiday workshop in June. He found it quite interesting.


Btw, any idea where to get a reasonably good racquet below $150?

I was at the Singapore badminton hall yesterday , watching our primary school and secondary school students taking parts in National Age Group competition. I overheard one of the parent actually put his 3 children to special training in Indonesia in the school holiday. I knew his children are already in the singapore sport school . I wonder what’s next he will do for his children.

Hi


Does anyone has any good recommendation for basketball lessons as well as badminton lessons for a 9 yr old? Unfortunately, DS's school does not have these two sports in the CCA list.

Thank you in advance.
