Membership Application Form

Doncaster Templestowe Badminton Association (DTBA) - MEMBERSHIP

  • DTBA, Total membership is about 600, including junior members. We do consider applications for new members each year, usually between March to June, after existing members have renewed their annual membership. However, due to limited badminton courts (6), we have to cap our membership numbers at this level each year. Currently there is a long waiting list of applicants which means we cannot assure when an applicant will be accepted as a member.
  • We provide daily social playing sessions for members from Tuesday to Sunday, usually at night. For details please click here. Monday nights are generally reserved for in-house competitions. We do allow casual players (non-members) to try out our facility but only in those sessions which may be less busy, e.g. second sessions on Tuesday and Thursday nights. Please call 03 9840 2063 (between 6.30 to 10.00 pm) to enquire on other sessions where casual members can participate
  • All social sessions are managed by a supervisor who organises the games. Anyone wanting to know more about this aspect can call our supervisor when the social sessions are on, to enquire further. Do note that priority is always given to our members.
  • Note: Junior membership age between 12 and 18 years old
