spinac Posted September 30, 2004 Share Posted September 30, 2004 ah we missed ya - ... if you need rest though you need rest that's cool! (had a short siesta myself earlier) We were missing one or 2 others as well but with 2 new players (beginners) we had a great session. Glad you're still interested in playing though funkyukgal - it was a quiet week, but next week is already looking busy.

spinac Posted October 12, 2004 Share Posted October 12, 2004 No badminton this week as Ponds Forge sports hall is out of action (special events on). Will let you know about next week. Who could play at Hillsborough Leisure Centre? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orko Posted October 12, 2004 Share Posted October 12, 2004 Is anyone else getting a bit annoyed by Ponds Forge? Why you can't play badminton at a regular time every week is beyond me. This week they have an event on that covers Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Fair enough so they have to get the reddies in somehow and they have to cover a large range of activities, but I need to book to get a court (so they're not short on demand) and then I pay (compared to, say, Hillsborough Leisure Centre) a fair wack more for 15 minutes less court-time. Last week I went along to be told that they booked us a court when the hall wasn't being used for badminton, so that was another week I couldn't play - AND despite taking my phone number with the booking they waited until I got there to tell me this!! Are there no other large halls in such a vast building for big events? I know, I'm whinging, and all I have to do is go elsewhere but it's so much closer than any other of the city's facilities.

borninsheffield Posted October 13, 2004 Share Posted October 13, 2004 I highley recomend Springs Leisure Centre at the top of East Bank Road. They have a really nice gym and is a lot cheaper than Ponds Forge or Hilsborough. Costs just £5.35 for a sessions. The courts are nicley marked out and if you want you can hire rackets for FREE. Check it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
borninsheffield Posted October 13, 2004 Share Posted October 13, 2004 And Springs is close to the City Centre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wasenshi Posted October 14, 2004 Share Posted October 14, 2004 Originally posted by Orko Is anyone else getting a bit annoyed by Ponds Forge? Yes Orko, I am. Our karate class is constantly being moved from the sports hall to inadequate locations due to un-sport related events so I know how you feel.
