Family Badminton Sessions

Our Family Sessions offer fun, structured play opportunities for parents and children to enjoy badminton together in a friendly, welcoming environment.

Each session is facilitated by a Badminton Canterbury staff member, who guides families through a variety of games tailored to all skill levels. The structured format ensures fair and equal court time for all paying participants and encourages families to mix, interact, and play with a variety of people.

Games may include:

· Adults vs. adults

· Children vs. children

· Mixed adult-and-child matchups

These sessions focus on teamwork, skill development, and inclusive fun—helping families stay active, connect through sport, and build lasting, healthy habits.

📅 Thursdays: 5.30 – 7pm

💰 Cost

· Up to 2 adults + 2 children: $13

· Extra children: $3 each

· Extra adults in your group: $13 each

· Children without a playing adult (must be supervised): $6 per child

🎉 Monthly Mini FUN Tournament

On the first Thursday of every month, our regular session transforms into a Mini FUN Tournament!

We’ll still play our usual mix of games, but with an added twist:

· We’ll keep track of your scores throughout the night.

· A small prize will be awarded at the end!

· It’s not about the highest score—the winner is the player whose total score is closest to a secret predetermined number!

Come along for a night of friendly competition, laughter, and great energy on court!
