About OBC

We are Orpington Badminton Club, one of the oldest in this area; we've been around for almost 70 years!

We have around 30 members, all adults of different ages from 19 to 65. Some who play competitive social games and are county members.

We do not cater for beginners, juniors or provide coaching nor accept under-18s.

We are a non-profit club, and our membership costs reflect this.

We play every week (except 2 weeks for Christmas).

We play for two hours, from 8:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m., on Thursday evenings at Darrick Wood Secondary School Sports Centre, Lovibonds Avenue, BR6 8ER. https://maps.app.goo.gl/sb3ZKfBBFrvBUSAd7 

We use Yonex AS30 feather shuttles. 

We use the whole sports centre and the lighting is good and free of any obstructions. 

There is free parking by going up the school driveway and turning left.

There are changing rooms with shower facilities for your convenience.

Our club values fair play and promotes a friendly yet competitive environment.

Join us for social nights out and experience the OBC tradition of fairness and fun off & on court.
