Badminton
BADMINTON IN YOUR WORKPLACE
In line with Tees Valley Sport's Lasting Legacy plan which aims to increase participation in sport, and physical activity across the Tees Valley, BADMINTON England can offer your workplace a variety of activities to your employees to get them more active and healthy.
Badminton is currently the most popular racket sport, ahead of Tennis & Squash with over 950,000 people playing the sport once per month across England. Physical activity can contribute to the health of businesses through increasing productivity, improving absenteeism and ability to return to work after illness, retaining staff, creating a positive corporate image and helping your business achieve Health at Work awards.
What can we offer?
• 6 weeks badminton taster sessions for businesses, delivered by a fully qualified and experience BADMINTON England Coach
• Provide marketing for employees to access current No Strings badminton sessions
• Intra business badminton ladders and competition
• Promote social benefits of Badminton
Case Studies
Albert Potts, Assistant Director of Sport - "No Strings Badminton has provided us with a perfect vehicle to integrate University facilities, into the local community. Starting only 12 weeks ago the initiative is proving so popular we have already commissioned a second evening session. Providing you have the right session facilitator, then I would unreservedly recommend the No Strings Badminton initiative to any sports/leisure facility".
Gareth Foreman - "Heard about No Strings badminton through working at Halcrow, a company near the facility. Initially I turned up for a laugh with colleagues but soon got addicted to the speed and fun of the enjoyable games".
How can I get my business involved?
There would be no financial commitment from your organisation, we would just require your cooperation to communicate this opportunity to your employees and gage interest in setting up a weekly after work badminton session. If you would be interested in meeting to discuss offering badminton as a sport/ physical activity option to your employees please do get in touch.
