Founded in 1991, Croakers Badminton Club was originally based at Countesthorpe College before moving to Brockington College a few years ago. From a solid foundation, we have steadily increased our membership and now have a good mix of male and female players. We currently have a number of mens, ladies and mixed teams playing in the Leicestershire league.

As a club member you will be registered with BADMINTON England for Sports Liability Insurance. BADMINTON England membership includes these additional benefits. You will also be registered with Leicestershire Badminton Association (LBA) and eligible to play league matches for us.
Club nights and league matches

Club nights take place at Ellesmere College on Thursdays from 7.30pm to 9.30pm. We play throughout the year, and guests are more than welcome. Contact Raheel with any questions.
​
We play our home league matches at the same location and these are normally on a Monday evening at 7.30pm.
​
We play with Yonex Aerosensa 30 feather shuttles on club nights and home league matches.
If you are interested in playing friendly and competitive badminton contact Raheel.
