Members are required to comply with these rules.

2-Games Rule
    When other members are waiting, nobody should play more than 2 games at a time
    Losing team leaves after one game
    Winning team stays for one more game only, regardless of winning or losing
   If you are practicing instead of playing a game, please follow the guidelines below:
    One team has to leave after 10 minutes of play
    The other team leave after another 10 minutes
   Be considerate. Step out of the court and offer it to the members waiting.
   If you don't do this on your own, any other members will have the right to make you stop.

Member's Obligations When You Bring a Friend
    Explain the club rules to your friend before he/she plays 

Court Manner 
   General courtesy is required.  Below are a few common things to watch out:
    Respect the court lines and walk outside of it when others are in the court.
    Refrain from any act which may hurt or injure others.
    Make an effort to aim when picking up the shuttlecork and hitting it to others.
    Avoid putting your body weight over the nets.
    
Novice Court
   At times when the players' skill levels are far apart such that it is not easy to pair for a match, we may setup a Novice Court.  If you are a beginner, you may want to use the Novice Court when it is available.  Chances are you will win more and get to play more.
   Common Questions are: Who is to consider whom novice and Where is the Novice Court?

Who is to consider whom novice?
You are your own judge. You are free to play at the regular courts, but just be prepared to leave after one game when you lose. Also, be mentally prepared to not to feel bad if the more advanced members do not want to pair with you. I think you would enjoy it more playing with people at similar skill level, but you decide what is best for you.

Where is the Novice Court?
The Novice Court will only be set up when Gym is crowded and when there is enough beginners (~ one third of the total number of member present). Beginners are encouraged to match up with other beginners to make a group of 4 so that you can go to any court at times when all 4 players has to leave (i.e. when the winning team had played 2 games already). From this point on, you just follow the 2-game rule if there are at least 2 more beginning members waiting. If there are no more beginning member waiting, it would be fair that both teams to play 2 games in a row before leaving the court. When the Novice Court is needed, a sign indicating where it is will be put up by one of the Board Member.
