Why play badminton at BC Orion?

Training by certified trainers

Our trainers are qualified and our competition trainer has even played at Olympic level.

​Large hall and many playing moments​

The Pathmoshal has 9 double fields and 2 single fields. We usually all use them.

Competition teams at various levels

In 2024, our teams play in the 5th to 9th division.

Lots of matches against each other

In free play we often play doubles and try to make balanced teams. When it’s busy and you’re done, you wait at the bank until another field becomes available.

What our members say​

Until I was 46 I had never played serious badminton. On a Monday evening I took the plunge and went to the training. Since that day I train and play twice a week. In badminton, every game is different and it remains challenging. Now I guide the 6-9 year youth group and introduce them to badminton by playing lots of games.

My parents introduced me to badminton. When I was 6 years old, I told my father that I really wanted to join a club, at the time that was De Racketeers in Emmen. During my student days I had a break, but then it started to itch again. Since then I am a member of this beautiful association BC Orion. I train there with great pleasure, play competition and since 3 years I have been allowed to fulfill the role of chairman. I like to do this to promote the beautiful badminton sport.
