Ridgewood Badminton Courts, Then Kabobs and a Latte
Brooklyn Badminton Center offers Ridgewood badminton courts for rentals and coaching, from beginners up. Then eat at Choice Brooklyn on the Upper West Side, Fire Kabob in Brooklyn and Sip + Co near Central Park South.


Brooklyn Badminton Center is a badminton facility on Woodward Ave in Ridgewood with green courts for rallies. Court rentals let you arrange a game, and coaching could suit beginners building their skills. Players describe the courts as clean and well maintained. The trade-off is narrow clearance between courts, so people walking to their courts pass directly along active rally lines.
