Due to the university progressing to the yellow zone, we have been strongly advised against club meetings indoors of more than 10 people. With the strong urge to push extracurriculars virtual, the badminton club will be postponed for the next two weeks for everyone’s safety. Even with the 30 minute slots of 20 people, the eboard would have to interact with over 100 people, which isn’t the safest option right now.

This means there will be no practice tomorrow (9/20) and we will reconvene to see where the University’s covid levels are at in 2 weeks. We are sorry for the inconvenience and know how much everyone wants to play again, but we have to keep the health of our community first. If practices continue to be postponed we will work on getting either discounts or refunds if you already paid for the club dues.

Registration is open for the fall! Please read the document attached for important details.

Thanks for those who stopped by our table at the club fair! See you at our first practice on September 20th🏸

Come to the CU Club & Activities Fair tomorrow from 12-4pm on the Low Steps and visit the Badminton table! You can sign up for our mailing list if you haven't yet and the club eboard can answer any questions you may have.

Yes! We will be having badminton in person this semester. Stay tuned for more updates soon!

Happy first week of classes! Sadly, Badminton will continue to be cancelled until further notice. We will update you all with any changes.

Alongside the regulations of the University, we will not be holding practices or tournaments for the foreseeable future. We are sorry for the inconvenience! Have a great fall semester.
