The group meets on alternate Tuesdays from 10.30 to 12.30 at Orford Jubilee Neighbourhood Hub, Jubilee Way (Winwick Road), Orford, Warrington WA2 8HE.
You can park for free at the hub, for a maximum of 3 hours. Enter the hub through the main doors and go to reception. You cannot get to the sports hall, which is upstairs, without first checking in at the reception desk. You don't need any membership cards, money, ID etc. Just say you are attending the U3A badminton group. There is a cafe on the ground floor.
We have two courts at the hub. Changing areas, toilets and showers are available. All equipment can be provided, although most people prefer to bring their own racquet. We normally play doubles games; all levels of players are welcome, and we mix everyone around so that you get to play with, and against, a range of people.
