Title
Catonsville Badminton Club
Description
The Catonsville Badminton Club is part of the Baltimore County Department of Recreation and Parks. The Club was formed in the 1950's when Baltimore was a hotbed of American badminton. Although none of the founding members are still active, the Club remains vibrant with a mix of players from many countries in addition to a large local contingent. Members span a wide range of skill levels; training in badminton fundamentals is available along with opportunity to play with players of other levels. Although family memberships are available, this is primarily an adult club; during crowded conditions, preference is given participants age 16 and older.
The club is an active supporter of high school badminton. Several members, including Rick Wiker (in yellow and white below, who has run this very popular club since 1978), routinely assist local badminton coaches. The club also supports a local high school scholarship program and is a member of the national USABadminton organization.
The Club uses the 4 indoor courts at the air-conditioned Bloomsbury Fieldhouse (106 Bloomsbury Ave) and plays every Sunday, 7:30-10:30pm. We also use three additional courts at a nearby facility for badminton workshops offered by a coach originally from Hong Kong. During the spring & summer, the club plays from 7-10pm on Tuesdays in addition to the year-round Sunday nights.
