Growing Melbourne's West badminton family, one game at a time.

Our purpose is to use badminton as a vehicle for health, connection and personal growth across Melbourne's western suburbs. We believe sport should be accessible, supportive and a catalyst for stronger communities.

Key pillars of our purpose:

• Wellbeing: encourage fitness, coordination and mental health through regular activity.
• Inclusion: ensure sessions and programs cater to juniors, women, seniors and new players.
• Development: provide clear pathways from social play to competitive opportunities and coaching.
• Community: host events that bring families and local partners together.

Community & partnerships

We partner with local venues, coaches and volunteers to run development clinics and community outreach programs. If your organisation would like to partner, sponsor or collaborate on a program, please get in touch.

We also run occasional free introduction sessions for schools and local groups — contact us to schedule a session.

Why choose Western Badminton? We combine a welcoming social culture with structured coaching and competitive pathways so members can enjoy the sport at whatever level they prefer.
