ABOUT US
History
Nova Badminton club started in 2005 when the Sports Hall at Burton Borough School was opened. A small group started the "pay and play" club with a grant that paid for the initial courts and some shuttlecocks. With over 40 members, the club continues to thrive with regular social events.
Where and When Do We Meet
With around 30 regular players, we use 4 courts from 7:15pm to 9:30pm every Thursday in the Sports Hall at the back of Burton Borough School in Newport Shropshire - See Map on "Contact" page for directions and check on Club Diary for availability in case of any changes in time or venue due to the school using the hall. We also run a variety of Social events during the year (see Social and Notices Page). There are occasions where we play elsewhere if the school are using the hall so keep an eye on the diary.
How do I Join?
Please contact us is using the link on "Contact" Page. This lets us know you are interested and we will respond directly to you and answer any questions you have.
Sadly we can't cater for beginners or anyone under 18yrs. But, if you have played before and want to return, and are looking for a relaxed friendly club where there is an opportunity to play with a range of players, give us a try! A £5 fee is paid on the evening or regular players can set up a standing order of only £15/month.
