Pittville Badminton Club is a friendly, sociable and ambitious club, based in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire. We are an accredited Premier (Clubmark) Club and have something to offer junior and adult players of all levels of experience. We run weekly club nights for our members to play socially, coaching sessions (both for juniors and adults) to help players improve and arrange club socials and competitions. We also provide the opportunity for our members to represent our club in the local Gloucestershire Badminton League and in county junior competitions.

Hi Everyone, don't forget that there aren't any junior coaching sessions running from Tuesday 11th to Thursday 13th February. This is because our coaches are away in Birmingham watching the best badminton players in the world compete in the YONEX All England Open Badminton Championships. It's also Cheltenham Race week which will likely mean that the traffic in and around Cheltenham will be a mess! Sessions resume the week after.

On Tuesday 11th February, we will be running a KS2 Badminton Festival on behalf of Badminton Gloucestershire Community. It will run from 6-8pm at The High School Leckhampton. The festival is a great opportunity for players to come together to participate in a range of fun badminton skill development activities, some cooperative challenges, and some game play. The event will be led by coaches from Pittville Badminton Club and the Badminton Gloucestershire Community Group.
The event is open to all primary school aged players in Gloucestershire. Players do not need to be a current member of a junior club. However, please bear in mind that due to the nature of the planned activities, it is recommended that players are already capable of sustaining a short rally so that they can enjoy the event to the fullest.
Parents/Guardians of any child who wishes to attend should get in contact to sign them up.

Hi Everyone, please note that unfortunately we won't be able to run a Wednesday Junior Coaching session or Wednesday Adult Club Night next week, on Wednesday 11th December. This is because HSL have their school Christmas concert.
