“Being an activator for almost 8 years now, since I began my journey at Warwick in 2016 has been wonderful experience. This involves meeting enthusiastic, sports loving participants from diverse cultures and backgrounds. Being an activator allows me to make friends, assist new participants in getting into badminton and improve my own badminton skills.”
- Ishwar Kapoor, Activator for Rock Up & Play Badminton
FAQs
Do I need to book?
Due to health and safety, we do require all attendees to book (either using the app or the website). Bookings can be made 3 days in advance, so you have time to cancel if you need to.
I can no longer attend the sessions; will I get charged?
No worries at all, there is no charge, we just ask you to cancel your slot. This will allow someone who can attend to take your place.
Can I attend if I have never tried the sport before?
These sessions are for all abilities. There are specific beginner-focused sessions for people who may not have tried the sport before.
