Where do you play?
Leisure centres located within London Canary Wharf or Docklands area. We always choose the location that is conveniently located with easy commute by public transport, e.g. DLR, bus or tube. Details on the exact location and how to get there will be provided on Meetup or Facebook page.
I am a just beginner, can I still come?
Even better if you come because practice makes perfect, right? Basically, we are open to players of all levels – beginner, intermediate or advanced players. Some of our experienced players would provide coaching as well.
How about a skilful player like me, can I still come?
Of course you are welcome. Treat this like a sparing event or to work on some little things that you always wanted to improve, e.g. net play, drop shots, jumping smash, etc. Good to keep fit and maintain your skills.
