Hi all.
I am Fyz . planning to move to Quito in 2017. Can I find a badminton court in Quito? I am a good player and I need a partner too.
not possible, as not a lot people in quito play this sport, learn how to play volley ball, its the national game.
good luck
When you are into Badminton you will forget vollyball bcos its the fastest game in the world.
I used to play vollyball but never made me happy.
But each game has its rythm
you wanted some information, i gave it to you! rest is your choice my friend.
good luck
Hi Mr Manoj. Can I get your number in Ecuador? Are you Indian?

FabianM,
By doing simple research I know there are badminton courts in Guayaquil, and I think you might have better luck finding courts in Quito by contacting authorities who will give you additional information.
Federacion Ecuatoriana De Badminton
Av. De Laas America, Explanada Del Estadio Modelo GUAYAQUIL , ECUADOR
Tel.: +593 4 2296501 , Fax: +593 4 2296388
Good luck, and If you find some courts please be courteous and share it with us. You can also contact sunset club in quito and ask them about badminton facilities.
Thank you for your good advise. I did not research, bescause I thought some one might know about a court in Quito.
Well I did simple research as well and just found this:
Kao Sports Center en la República E6-296 y Eloy Alfaro, E6-296, Quito
I will probably check that out. If some one wanna join me, just let me know.
Cheers!
Kao Sports advertises itself as the largest sporting (goods) store in Ecuador.
To my knowledge, the store on Avenida de la República does not have a badminton court, however.
