Badminton is one of the most popular sports among Chinese on the campus. The CSSA badminton club is open to badminton players at all levels. A major event organized by the club is the annual CSSA badminton tournament, which started in 2003. This tournament is usually scheduled in April or May and open to all Chinese as well as players from other countries. The club also organizes friendly games with other nearby universities, either by inviting them to visit us or traveling to other universities. In addition, the club will provide help on other badminton related issues such as ordering shuttles, stringing rackets etc. There is no formal membership, and because of large number of players, there is no regular club play time. Currently, badminton can be played at Freer Hall only. You can reserve courts that fit your own schedule. Nevertheless, we regularly reserve courts for Friday evening and everyone is welcome to play.
