Visitors
At Icarus Badminton Club, we’re delighted to welcome visitors and guests to join us for an evening of badminton. Whether you’re an experienced player, returning after a break or still learning the ropes, you’ll find a friendly and inclusive atmosphere here.
Registration
To help us manage numbers and avoid court congestion, we ask all visitors to register in advance via our Join page. Once you’ve submitted the form, we’ll confirm a suitable date for your first session. Please don’t just turn up on the night, as we may not be able to accommodate you if we’re at capacity.
First Session Free
Your first visit is completely free—no strings attached! It’s a great opportunity to get a feel for the club and meet our members.
Trial Period
You’re welcome to attend up to three sessions before deciding whether to become a member. After your free first session, subsequent visits cost £5 per evening to help cover court and shuttle costs.
We understand that moving from casual play to a club environment can feel like a step up—especially as social badminton varies widely in standard. The trial also gives us a chance to assess whether you’re a good fit for the club.
After the Trial
If you decide to join, great! Once accepted, we’ll guide you through the onboarding process. If we feel that our current level isn’t quite the right match—especially for beginners—we may suggest trying No Strings Badminton, a welcoming programme run by Badminton England. It’s a great way to build confidence and court time before joining a club.
