Cool badminton links
Arizona Badminton Club: The official website of our fellow badminton lovers in Phoenix. Has information on their upcoming tournaments as well as places to play in Phoenix if you're ever up there. Also much prettier than this website, thanks to Francis.
BWF: Official website of the Badminton World Federation. Good for news on tournaments, players, results, rankings, etc.
Badminton Freak: Great website with lots of movies from recent tournaments for free! Thanks to webmaster Jason for providing a great service to the badminton community where we don't get televised broadcast.
Wikipedia: Brief history, rules, trends, etc...in badminton for those interested.
World Badminton: A site with lots of badminton movies and resources.
Badminton Central: Information/news site with reviews of products, discussion boards, etc.
Badminton Flash Game: For those boring hours spent staring at the computer. For the masochists among you, trying finding first version of the game (also at the site) and playing that one.
Commercial Resources
Racquet Shack: Not a great website for this local shop, but you can visit it on Country Club and Fort Lowell. Most items are Yonex and therefore can be expensive. If you want badminton shoes, they have Yonex models for $85-$99, which is reasonable. They also offer restringing for a good price with a quick turnover time. You can call them at 520-323-3916.
Badminton Alley: A good place for badminton needs. Rackets, strings, birdies, shoes, etc... they've got it all if you have the dough.
Badminton Warehouse: Another commercial resource. Decent selection and prices, and free shipping for orders >$100.
Shuttle Combo: A site with many top brands of shuttles and discounts for bulk purchases. Get together a couple of your buddies and buy a buncha tubes for discounts on birdies and shipping.
Wayne's Sporting Supplies: A great site for Aeroplane birds at reasonable prices! You gotta buy them in bulk though. Get some friends together and go for broke!
Cafe Press: Search for "badminton" using their search engines for a bunch of badminton merchandise (shirts, buttons, logos, etc). Some are cheesy, some funny, and some are just silly, but all are good fun.
Other Stuff
University of Arizona: Arizona's best and brightest, located in Tucson, AZ.
UA Campus Recreation: Information regarding the Student Rec, other athletic activities, and such like.
Sushi Yukari: Delicious sushi hosted by a badminton enthusiast, our state champion Yukari Katayama-san.
Google: Use this to search for all things badminton, especially Google Videos.
