Daily Membership £4 now available

2/10/2019

 
From 1st October 2019, Badminton Wycombe will be introducing a Daily Membership rate for all players who do not hold valid 2019-2020 annual membership: £4 for the day payable on arrival at reception.

This replaces the previous "try out on one occasion as a non-member" option. There is no limit on the number of Daily Memberships a player can purchase during a year. Daily Membership only gives access to the facilities of the Centre for that specific day and doesn't provide access to online booking. If annual membership is taken out at a later date, any amount of daily membership taken up to that point will not be refunded or be counted as part payment.

Wycombe Boys beat badminton world record

26/7/2018

 
Two Wycombe boys, Rohan Smith (18) and Max Spokes (17) have made a new world record for the longest badminton match by playing for 25 hours and 34 minutes. They beat the previous record by 9 minutes. The world record attempt was staged at Wycombe Badminton Centre and began at 1.00pm on Saturday 7th July and finished just before 3.00pm on Sunday 8th July. 
Complying with the Guinness Book of Records regulations, the boys were allowed a 5 minute break every hour, and had certificated umpires from the Badminton Umpires Association of England to record the scores and times.
Asked how he managed to get through more than 25 hours on court, Rohan said that they sustained themselves with Lucozade Sport, bananas and pasta. "We are really exhaused now, but our families and friends kept us going through the night when it was getting really hard."
In the process, Rohan and Max also raised more than £1200 for Macmillan Cancer support.
Well done to both of them.

New Life-Saving AED at WBC

7/11/2017

 
Possibly the most important change at the Centre recently, as part of our continual review of our duty of care to all users of the Centre, is our investment in an AED (Automated External Defibrillator).  This life-saving piece of kit is located at reception next to the First Aid box.

In the event of an emergency, please alert a member of staff.  Instructions on how to use the AED are located on the wall in reception, as well as on the right-hand side as you enter the badminton hall.  The AED will actually talk a user through CPR and how to use the device.

Bar Serving Times & End of Sessions

7/11/2017

 
Bar Serving Times
Whilst the Bar area remains open at all times that the Centre is open, the serving times have been adjusted to help in closing the Centre on time.

As of November 8, 2017 bar serving times are:

Wednesday: 7pm - 10.45pm
Thursday: 7pm - 10.45pm
Friday: 7pm - 10.45pm
Sunday: 7pm - 10.30pm

Drinking up time is 10 minutes and members are reminded to please vacate the premises by 11.20pm at the latest.
End of Sessions
We are politely asking all players to vacate courts at the end of your sessions in a prompt and timely manner.  This helps other users start on time and Centre staff clear the hall at the end of the evening.

Badminton Wycombe staff may turn the lights out on courts that are still being used after the paid-for time, as is common practice in other facilities around the country.  Sufficient lighting will always be provided to show players safely to the exit.
