Season Ending

As we are approaching the end of the 2025-26 season, this is a friendly reminder that all prepaid and complimentary passes expire after the last session in May. To help you plan your badminton adventure in the next couple of months, we now indicate the number of remaining sessions on our monthly calendar graphic. For example on March 10, there remains 15 sessions including that date. As always, all our passes are shareable and transferable. So take this great opportunity to share the joy of badminton with your friends and family.

Welcome to Crescent Heights High School! We are playing in this historic school on seven Wednesdays this Fall. Direction to the auxiliary gym is a little tricky, so this is for you if you have never visited the school before. 

• Parking is at the student parking lot at the back of the school off 11 Avenue.
• Access the double-door entrance off the student lot. All other entrances around the school will be locked.
• Turn left and walk down the hall.
• Before you get to the end of the hallway, head up the stairwell on the left.
• Turn left through the doors at the top of the stairs.
• Turn right and go through another two sets of doors to the Aux Gym.

There are six courts at this venue, but unfortunately the court lines are very close to the walls. Our Tuesday venue at Georges Vanier remains available fairly regularly this season.

The same school rental policies apply to this venue. As such doors are officially locked at 19h15. If you are arriving late, phone numbers are posted at the door to contact the organizer. It may take a few tries to get your call answered while games are in progress. We are required to vacate the building by 21h00.

See you there on Wednesdays!
