5.00It is a very friendly experience especially for tourist because racquet is provided and I don't need to take my own racquet. People participating are friendly and nice. Organiser George did a good job to arrange this event.

5.00This was a friendly group of approx 15 people. The badminton was a competitive but fun level. The court was also of a good standard as were the racquets provided.
Super Fun!

5.00Awesome time, everyone was super friendly. Was in Osaka on holiday for only 3 days, but managed to join the Badminton in Osaka with Local Players session. Had 3 hours of play, then went to get some food afterwards with some of the other players. Definitely a highlight of the trip.
Great OSAKA Experience!

5.00It was a very wonderful experience and was able to meet new friends both local and expats! Also a beginner-friendly place, people were very considerate and warm. Would rate this experience a 10 out of five if only I could! I highly recommend to bring your family and friends here! From your Pinoy Bakasyonista! Cheers!

5.00Good for meeting friends or just to get some good games in. There are all kinds of play levels, but if you're really a beginner I'd suggest bringing a friend of similar ability, as most other players have at least some experience.
