Hi All,
You are receiving this email either because you have signed up for our club, or you have request to join our club through “Orgsync.com”.

So If you have not yet joined, please do it when you are free. I will let you know if there is any other updates.

Subject: Welcome to join our Badminton Club !
Hi All,
Thank you for showing your interest in our badminton club. And hope you all enjoy your new life in UNC Charlotte. My name is Nian Chen, and I am currently taking charge of the on-campus badminton club. I will try to incorporate everything about our club in this email. If I have missed anything that might cause confusion to you, please feel free to email me or text me.
(1) About Badminton Club.
(2) How to join Badminton Club?
(3) Where to buy badminton shoes, rackets, etc. ?
(4) When and where to practice on campus?
(5) Alternative locations for practice off campus.
(6) Regulation and Rules.
(7) Communications.
(1) About Badminton Club.
Our badminton club is a on-campus sport club. The purpose of Badminton Club is to provide opportunities to students who are interested in the sport of badminton. The club will help students increase their competitive skills and be able to participate in local championships. However, our club also welcome those who just want to play for fun, since playing badminton is a good way of doing exercise.
(2) How to join Badminton Club?
Please follow the instructions below to complete the waiver online so as to join our club:
1) Go to http://www.orgsync.com, click on "Login", then select University of North Carolina @ Charlotte.
2) Login with you Niner Net Username and password.
3) Select our club – "Badminon Club" from the drop down menu of "Organizations".
4) Click on "Forms" from the list on the left of the screen.
5) Click on "Sport Club Member Contact Information & Release and Indemnity Agreement" to select the form.
6) Click on "Begin Form", then fill your info (Name, DoB, Address, Insurance, etc.) according to the guide.
7) Last, submit the form (for those have multiple clubs, make sure which club you are submitting on behave of).
(3) Where to buy badminton shoes, rackets, etc. ?
For your convenience, I would recommend some websites such as www.badmintonavenue.com (no tax, and extra 15% off during Black Friday) or www.amazon.com. I believe the former is a better website to buy rackets. If you need recommendations, you can email us or discuss with us the time you come to the court. Of course you can also go to some local shop like Dick's to get your badminton stuff.
(4) When and where to practice?
We used to practice in Belk Gym. But unfortunately, Belk Gym has been closed for renovation since May. And it won't reopen until December 2015. However, Max Mello, the Clubs director, told me that they can put down tapes on the floor as lines for badminton courts in SAC (Student Activity Center). Therefore, our regular practice time (Friday 5-9pm, Saturday 2-6pm) will still be scheduled for fall 2014 starting from Aug.25th. Please note the following dates had conflicts in the SAC, and would not be available for our practice:
Friday, August 29th
Saturday, August 30th
Friday, September 5th – can start/have access at 5 PM
Friday, September 19th
Saturday, September 20th
Friday, September 26th
Friday, October 3rd
Saturday, October 4th
Friday, October 10th
Saturday, October 18th – can start/have access at 3 PM
Friday, October 24th
Saturday, November 1st – can start/have access at 3 PM
