Your first training session with us - FAQ

Do I have to register before the trial training?

Yes, please register with our administration before your first training session. They know exactly when and where trial training sessions are possible and how much space is still available in the different training groups.

Please let our administration know with your request how much badminton experience you already have and how old you are (if you don’t want to tell us exactly, please tell us whether you are interested in children’s, youth or adult training). If you are interested in training in a particular hall, please let us know.

You can take part in a free trial training session up to 3 times before you have to enrol.

All you need for your first training session is comfortable sportswear, clean indoor sports shoes with a light-colored sole and something to drink. Important: The shoes must not have been worn outside!If you have one, bring your badminton racket with you. If you don’t have a racket, we can lend you one for the first few times. Shuttlecocks are always available in all halls.

The best person to talk to in the hall is the coach present. He can show you where you can change and tell you how to get started. If, exceptionally, there is no coach present, simply speak to one of the members. They will be happy to help you and integrate you into the group.

Please be in the hall at least 5 minutes before training starts. Then you can change your clothes in peace and clarify any final questions. As some of our training halls are unfortunately a little hidden on the school grounds, please allow a little more time for your first arrival.

Each coach organizes the start of training differently. Most start with a joint warm-up program – this can include a variety of general sports exercises: from running to coordinative games to strengthening exercises. However, the members may also warm up on their own. It is best to clarify this directly on site.

Then it’s time to warm up with rackets and shuttlecocks before the actual practice part begins. A wide variety of striking and running techniques are practiced here, as well as tactics and other badminton-specific skills.

Finally, there is usually match training or free play. Here, the members play singles, doubles or mixed against each other – sometimes more, sometimes less seriously, but always with fun. And of course there is also time for those who just want to sit on the bench and have a chat.

You can find our membership application form here on the website. There are 3 options:

  1. Online form: You can fill out our online form directly here on the site and send it off. That’s it.

  3. You fill out the PDF form completely, print it out and hand it in to the trainer at the next training session. Done.

Please note that we definitely need a SEPA direct debit mandate for the membership fees from you and also an e-mail address for the confirmation of your membership. More Information HERE.

We will forward your registration to our membership administration. You will receive a confirmation e-mail from them with further information. If you sign up right at the beginning or in the middle of the month, we’ll give you the first few weeks for free! We won’t debit the first membership fee from your account until the following month.

Your membership includes all training sessions that are suitable for your age group and skill level. Whether you train once or several times a week, always at the same time or at different times – it’s up to you. We recommend that you train at least twice a week in order to make noticeable progress.

Important: Our talent groups may only be attended by invited members. If you are interested, speak to a coach to see if they can make a recommendation for you.
