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 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. All players welcome, members and non members of the Centre.
Teams need not be connected to a Club or to a League to enter. All players welcome, members and non-members! Teams need not be connected to a league or club to enter. Entering a Team into Summer League 2017

The players showed the best team spirit in the hall to beat Chew Valley and only narrowly lost to Swifts in the final. It was a really tense final with a good crowd and atmosphere. Abigail Holden, from Wycombe EPT, was the team mentor for the day and was really impressed with how the players performed and supported each other.
Our U14 team also competed on the Sunday and had a great day, coming in 5th place. Click "Read More" to see photos of the team.
