Prices have changed to $18/person, 4 players can book a court together for 2.5 hours. They have racket ($3) and shoe ($5) rentals. They also sell rackets, shoes (not a lot of variety) and drinks. They also re-string the rackets. I really enjoy visiting NJBC and always get a good work out from it.

The ongoing pandemic has definitely taken a toll on a lot of businesses and public places since a…read moreconsumer's mindset to buy anything outside of essentials or to visit a public place like a park or beach, has crippled down significantly. Now by living with what has become the new normal, it is commendable on how these businesses and public places continue to remain open and cater to the general public by following the safety standards. It is now all the more important that we as customers, support these heroes during these dark hours to mankind. My wife and I had been looking for some form of sport activity around Jersey city and that's how we ran into this Badminton club. They have an online registration form to be filled out for booking a court for full 2 hours with number of players. The more you take with you, the cheaper it will be per person. There's also a WhatsApp group that is pretty active with people asking or updating their availability to play for a certain time slot, calling out the play level - Beginner, Intermediate or Advanced. Finding this place was a bit tricky as the entrance is little unassuming and you need to fight out the street parking as they don't have a dedicated one. Luckily we didn't have to go through that as we took the last slot of the day - 9.30-11.30. They check the body temperature before letting you in and you can get to your desired court without a second of waiting. They have four active courts and the facility is part of a school that maintains it pretty well. We even watched a masked up gentleman spraying disinfectants once, along the sitting area. Masks are mandated except for the playing time and they currently don't have walk-ins to reduce the crowd during the pandemic. They provide feathered cocks for a $ if you don't bring your own and provide rackets as rentals for $3. We had a great time and we have certainly found our new go-to place to flex our muscles.

Reserve time ahead of time online and download the app to fill out the forms and waivers. $20/person per hour, I believe. They have re-stringing equipment, a vending machine and water fountain. Bathrooms need a bit of cleaning, no paper towels or anything to wipe spills or other liquid off the floors. Some coaching here with hundreds of birdies at one court and a couple kids learning. Shares the plaza with many other companies, so it gets busy, parking can be tight. Staffer was curt and checked you in, but not really helpful when the floor needed to be cleaned (had to do it yourself). Very minimal services keep it efficient. Courts themselves were in good condition, but watch the weights held down with weights and boards on the edges.

I play badminton weekly at home and while traveling to NY, I saw that there are plenty of places to…read moreplay but many are at school gyms. I found Fitness Badminton online and liked the title so I contacted the person to get more information. The website had different information than other places with their listing, and I know the internet may not have the most current info when the business does not have their own facility. Ths price is still current at $10/person. This is also the only place that lists loaner rackets available, but unfortunately they now do rentals. However, I gave Kenneth a call to explain I am from out of town so I do not have anything with me and will be coming with a few friends to play, and he generously offered to loan my friends and me rackets for the night! (I contacted one other place and looked up 4 other places and no other facility seemed to have the same generosity or personal touch, which is why I decided to go here.) Fitness Badminton is located inside one of Midwood High School's gym. They used to be located at a different school's gym, which is where we ended up because we used Google Maps to get there. So, be sure to type in the address from the website or make sure Google Maps has the current address. Although the host is friendly and generous, the courts is what made this place lose a star. There are no badminton lines on the courts!! The lines are taped on using masking tape. It appears as though this is done each time the courts are used for badminton. There are only three nets, which are not for badminton either, so the birdies get stuck in them. Needless to say there are not poles for the nets so the court we played on had a wooden stick holding the net up the right height. The floor was quite slippery, so it wasn't easy to play competitive games without risking injury. The drinking fountain in the gym doesn't work, so be sure to bring your own bottled water. There are vending machines in the basement of the school if you forget though. Regulars bring their own water, new and used feather birdies, and rackets. I would come back here if I am not playing competitively or if I'm in in area though. :)

It's a nice 25 yard indoor pool with water maintained at a cool temperature in the summer. It feels great taking a swim on a hot summer day. The day pass is $15, but if you plan on going the whole year, the annual pass is definitely a reasonable choice. The pool is usually not too crowded and I usually have one more person in my lane. Make sure to bring a lock with you so that you can store your stuff securely in the locker. You also need to wear a swim cap to swim in the pool. I also like that there is no need to bring a hairdryer because the hand dryers in the girls' locker room is positioned well and powerful enough for drying your hair.

The courts are very clean and there are some used shuttles available to be used. There's very little space at the back of the courts so it can be hard to defend a corner shot. It can get humid since there's no AC. They do a good job of warming the place during winter. However, it does smell like your grandparent's place in Asia ...what a throwback. The restrooms are pretty old and kind of dirty....it's what you'd expect from an old Chinese place.
