Senior badminton and table tennis

As we get older, it's important for us to remain healthy, fit and social - for both our physical and mental health. We run badminton and table tennis sessions especially for over 50s.

During these sessions, we have five badminton courts and eight table tennis tables available for use. If our courts fill, then we run court rotations every 15 minutes so that everyone has the ability to play.

Badminton shuttles are provided and you are also welcome to bring your own. Please bring your own racquet, however we do have spares if required.

Rest areas, showers, toilets and a kiosk for refreshments are available at the centre.

We also run regular badminton sessions and table tennis.
