About Our Programs

At MUBC we do things a little differently - we recognise the distinctive needs between social and competitive play and our programs are tailored accordingly.

Social Play

For those who just want to play for fun, we have some weekly passes available during the semester starting in week 2.

We also run a limited number of casual sessions during mid-semester, winter, and summer breaks

The social sessions are either held at the Nona Lee Sports Centre (Building 103),or Carlton Baths Stadium.

As badminton is one of the more popular sports at the University of Melbourne, space is limited and registration prior to the sessions are essential. For session details and registration, please see our "Events" page.

Competitive Play - Club Athlete Support Scheme

Competitive players or those aiming to represent the University and Club at Badminton Victoria (BV) A Grade or higher may be eligible for support through the Club Athlete Support Scheme (CASS)

There are numerous other benefits associated with being a member of the CASS program.

In order to qualify into CASS you must succeed in tryouts which take place at the start of each semester - details for Semester 1, 2025 will be made available at the CASS Policy page once finalised.

Intermediate Training

Intermediate-level competitive players, equivalent to Badminton Victoria C Grade or below, may be eligible for selection into the Intermediate Training program.

In order to qualify into the Intermediate Training you must succeed in tryouts which take place at the start of each semester.
