To all members and visitors,

A friendly reminder that under no circumstances should the main entrance doors be jammed open.

This is to ensure not only the booking system runs smoothly, but also for yours and the clubs safety.

This might be some sort of an inconvenience, but here are some tips!

1. Plan ahead: arrive together with the card holder so they can let everyone in at the same time.

2. Organized: let the card owner ensure everyone is in the facility before starting to play or ensure they're notified of your arrival.

If everyone could do their part then we all can ensure we have a great badminton experience through summer.

If you notice someone jamming the doors open please notify them on our policy or report them to management.

Happy new year to all our members! We hope you all had a great Christmas and new years.
2023 dates and info is up now on our website, www.crbad.co.nz with more to come over the next few weeks. Mid-week club resumes on Jan 9th and seniors on Jan 12th. See you on the court!
