Badminton Lachine is an association that respects sports spirit and ethics. This is why all unsportsmanlike, abusive, sexist or racist remarks will be sanctioned by a warning and immediate and definitive exclusion from the gymnasiums.

Players must practice with non-marking shoes, specially designed for indoor sports and exclusively reserved for indoor use (maintaining the cleanliness of the gymnasium).

Article 3: Singles and Doubles Play
At all times, priority is given to doubles play. However, when more than one court is vacant, singles play will be allowed.
Article 4: Use of courts
A facilitator provides management inside the gymnasium during the evening using, if necessary, a rotation table. This table is used to allow all members to practice badminton fairly. A rotation of players on the pitches is therefore compulsory and, after each match, the players must withdraw from the pitch, even if other pitches are free. No member or group of members is entitled to appropriate the same court for the whole evening or a major part of it.
