How to Apply

We want all our players to get quality time with our coaches so there are a limited number places in the cell.

Those places are for players that are committed to badminton and willing to train at 100% in every session. 

We expect you to:

•  Train at least 3 times a week (this can include club play) 

• Maintain your playing standard and fitness and take regular fitness tests (bleep tests)

• Take part in national and local badminton tournaments relevant to your standard

If you can make these commitments, then you are welcome to complete the application form above.

We'll invite you for a trial where you'll be assessed by the coaches and committee. Trials are normally the last training session of the month.

Admission to the cell will depend on the applicant’s playing standard, effort in training and the profile of existing cell players.

All other things being equal, preference will be given to those attending 2 cell sessions per week.

FAB is currently closed to new members as the club is at full capacity. 

However, once space opens up, you will be invited to a trial. If your trial is successful you may be offered a place immediately or placed on a waiting list if we have reached our player limit.

If your trial is unsuccessful, we will give feedback on what we would like to see improved.

If you don't make it this time, take some time to practice and you are welcome to reapply in 3 months.
