BIG NEWS: Dedicated badminton courts coming soon!

Published: Monday, September 23, 2024 7:33:14 PM
Here is the message we have received from Phil:

"Hello everyone. It’s been just over 2 years now without a dedicated badminton gym. I’m more than happy to announce that there are some major plans in the works. For the UNLV players, no more playing badminton vs the sun. ☀️ I was able to find a space that is willing to let us do badminton. Some details I can share at this time: - it will be 4 courts - ⁠it will be more of an upscale vibe - ⁠badminton mats/flooring donated by LVBC (thank you to Henry) - ⁠court rental and possible open gym times (more details later, but open gym is just dependent on how many hours are being booked the previous week) - ⁠it is not too far from where LVBC was - ⁠it will be called Pioneer Badminton Club (Las Vegas) For my players that have been there since the very first LVBC, you all know too well what the past two years have been like.. bouncing around to different communities centers depending on the day of the week.. and now we’ve come full circle again. We have come to that point again where we realize how important it is for our community to stay together and enjoy the sport we all love so much. We deserve at least that much. To start and keep this new club alive, we need the community’s help. Please spread the word that a club is coming. More details will come in the following days. -Phil"

Hi badminton fans. 

Unfortunately, due to water pipe rapture at Student Recreation and Wellness Center at UNLV, badminton is closed there. We spoke to the personnel at that facility and we have been told  that it will take at least 3-4 weeks before Badminton reopens. Pity!

Meeting with Silver Springs Recreation Center Representative

Published: Tuesday, October 17, 2023 6:42:09 PM
Hello badminton fans. Looks like we are another step closer to be able to play badminton in Henderson, NV! Today, I met with the recreation services supervisor at Silver Springs Recreation Center to discuss further details. They are still open to offer badminton plays soon. Proposed starting hours were Mondays 10am-noon and Fridays 8am-10am with rather slim changes of anything occurring after 5pm on weekdays. The proposed fee would be $2 per participant. It could be a good start. The more of us, the better the chances of negotiating better hours. We've come to a consensus of what sort of net is needed. They want to purchase a badminton set whose poles fit in the same "sockets" of existing volleyballs setup. Lines will be added of course. If anybody knows a vendor or a place to which we could point out recreation center officials to purchase such badminton setup, let us know. Below is the picture from UNLV that depicts it. When could we start? In December'23 if everything goes well. Thank you!

Booking courts. Does anybody know more?

Published: Wednesday, September 6, 2023 10:36:08 AM
We have been asked an interesting question recently: Is it possible to book an individual court in Las Vegas, NV valley? Old Las Vegas club, after the pandemic, used to be operating solely on court reservation basis. It's not so simple anymore. It's possible to book all 3 courts in Desert Breeze location but as far as we know, it's not really possible at UNLV. If anybody knows more, please share.

We have received an email from Recreation Services Coordinator asking details about what sort of accommodations we would require to allow for badminton play in Silver Springs Recreation Center. We have sent rather detailed response as to what court, net requirements are and what are the most preferred dates and hours based on survey results. We hope this means Silver Springs Center can offer us badminton courts starting August 2023.

Update on badminton facility in Henderson

Published: Tuesday, June 27, 2023 7:44:15 PM
We have just received an update from City of Henderson representative:

"At the current time, the City is determining if the field house will be managed by the Parks and Rec Department, contracted out to a private company to manage, or shared management between Parks and Rec and a private company. We want to find space for badminton! Summer is hard with our summer camps taking up almost all of the facility gym time, but we are hopeful to get you time at Silver Springs once the kids go back to school."

Thank you City of Henderson for having us, badminton enthusiasts, on your mind. There is hope.
