1. Racket: http://www.badmintonavenue.com/ http://www.badmintonalley.com/ https://www.badmintonwarehouse.com/ http://supremesportssupply.com/ 2. Badminton shoes: Badminton vendor, such as yonex/victor/li ning, they sell badminton shoes in different grades. Just google their name, you will find lots of options. If the price of badminton shoes is too high for your budget, volleyball shoes can be alternative choice. Those volleyball shoes are everywhere, such as Amazon or ebay. 3. String service: You can contact Dailin Li or Tsung-Fu Yao on Facebook for string service, fee may apply. 4. Sports wear: It is better to wear flexible/casual clothes for badminton. T-shirt would be good. Jeans are not recommended. Hope it helps! Badminton Practice at the University of Texas at Austin is divided into two categories: (1) UT Badminton Club time & (2) Informal practice time.
(1) UT Badminton Club time is limited to UT Badminton Club members. To join the UT Badminton Club, please refer to the "INFO" page. There will be a membership fee and as a result: shuttlecocks will be provided during Club time. Normal schedule for Club time is at Tuesday 7:30pm-10pm, Thursday 7:30pm-10pm, Sunday 4pm-6:30pm. Details for each practice time or any interruptions will be posted on Facebook group by Club Officers. (2) Informal practice time is open to any RecSports Gym members. As long as one has UT gym pass, it will be free to use the facilities/courts at informal practice time. However, the UT Badminton Club doesn't provide service during informal hours, so please bring your own equipment and watch out for sports safety. Normal schedule for Informal time is at Tuesday 6pm-7:30pm, Thursday 6pm-7:30pm, Sunday 6:30pm-10pm. Details for each practice time or any interruptions can be found on UT gym website. (https://www.utrecsports.org/facilities/facility-schedules) Enjoy your badminton play, Hook'em~ Here is a rough cost analysis about shuttlecock only, just for reference:
For each spring/fall semester: 3 practice per week --> 40~50 practice per semester 2 tubes shuttlecocks (24) per practice --> ~90 tubes per semester $20~$25 per tube --> ~$2000 per semester So...save as much as you can, warm up with used shuttlecocks only. Be environmental- and club- friendly~ |
