Class Continuation and Auto-Enrollment

If you plan on enrolling your child in the next session, you can notify Kenny Lu via email before the 6th week of the current session. Parents can choose the option of Auto-Enroll on the payment envelope or fill out the information on our website. Your children automatically enroll in the next 8 week sessions. This option is highly recommended because our class space is limited and this is the only way to guarantee the students class spaces for future classes. Requests for cancellation of Auto-Enrollment must be made 2 week prior to the end of the registered 8 week session.

Tournaments

Tournaments are a very important part of badminton student development. Our staff will organize events where a team will be sent from our club to participate in local, regional, national, and international tournaments. This may occur during our 8 week class sessions. Our club will sponsor at least 1 professional coach to travel with our team at the tournament. It is very important for student badminton development to have a professional coach teach students during their competition games. Students travelling to tournaments may miss a few classes because tournaments do overlap with class schedule, especially on the weekends. The club will sponsor a coach to teach the students during those tournaments and therefore; the classes missed are non-refundable. During tournaments, we do not charge a coaching fee because the club will sponsor the coach, but we may ask the travelling students (team) to help compensate the expenses of our coaches.
