Northwest Badminton Academy in Bellevue is a solid and pretty good place to play badminton. The setup has a lot of clean, well-maintained courts, and it is a very good venue for improving your game by playing with many good players. The academy offers flexible membership and drop-in options, with family memberships available. It is noted that a monthly membership is cost effective and really pays, while drop-in is considered expensive. The facility includes a store selling high-quality gear like racquets, shuttlecocks, shoes, grips, shirts, and bags, and also offers racket stringing. The staff is generally friendly, nice, and very interesting to talk to. Some drawbacks include the price, as it is a bit pricier than some clubs and classes are pricey. There are only a few singles courts, it can get crowded, and there is no AC, which can make it stuffy. Parking and court reservations can be a hit or a miss, with booking slots sometimes getting annoying. The organization and coaching can be hit or miss, and a negative point is the wooden floor in the washroom. However, given the other options in Bellevue, it is a decent spot and a solid choice.
This place is for anybody that loves to play badminton but they can’t because of the weather and the temperature.

Great badminton academy and lots of very great players. Tournaments are also pretty fun and very competitive. The parking though could be a lot better…

One of the best badminton clubs in Bellevue, Washington. Love their 13 Seahawks themed badminton courts. Totally recommend this place.
