Hey everyone! Hope everyone has power by now and is healthy and safe! Sorry for the late update. But here it is, our LSU UREC center has the basketball courts closed due to water damage to the courts and won’t be up till the spring at the earliest. This means that even if we wait till spring, the basketball courts still might not be up and running yet.

So I’m working with our URec staff to find another place for us to practice (just for LSU Badminton Club Members).

Here are the places you can play in the area for free. (Space is limited with 2 courts per place and you will have to bring your own rackets and shuttles. Some members may be kind enough to lend theirs but don’t count on it.)

Cedar Ridge Park 13000 Cedar Ridge Avenue //Wed 6:30-9:30 PM

Alaska Street Park 3014 Alaska Street // Tues, Thurs 9:00 am - 12:00 pm

Farr Park 6400 River Road //Tues, Thurs, Fri. 9 a.m.-1 p.m

I got all this information at www.brec.org. Feel free to check yourselves. However, there is no information whether or not gustav has affected  these areas. Email me at ljang1 [at] lsu.edu, if you find another place or if you find one of these places don’t have badminton at the specific time.

Sorry everyone! I hope to see you guys soon!
