No Strings Badminton is a friendly, inclusive ‘Pay & Play’ structured Badminton session, where no commitments are attached. No Strings was launched by Badminton England to encourage more people to play badminton in a relaxed and social environment, increasing participation.
No Strings sessions usually consist of Match Play, typically doubles, where participants will be mixed around, creating a relaxed aura on court.
Typically, No Strings sessions run in partnership with a Leisure Centre organisation and a coach, creating the lower cost effect. They are commonly known for being 1 hour in duration.
