Hi Kate!

After reading your post, I have asked some people that I know from Turin if there are any badminton facilities here.聽 Unfortunately, none of them know about any, as it isn't a popular sport here.聽 If I find out anything different, I will let you know.

How are you finding Turin so far?聽 I absolutely love it here :-)

Turin is a beautiful city,I like the Alps stretching endlessly,river,architectural style,fresh food....
Yes,I like turin!
I am learning Italian now,hope I will be able to speak soon.
Thanks for you help!

Don't worry Kate, here is possible to play badminton as well..
You can call the turin branch of Italian badminton Federation (Via Giordano Bruno, 191 10134 Torino, phone 011 3032241).
They could tell you venues etc.

Enjoy Torino!

Hi,Beppe:
I have tried few times to call the number,but nobody answer.I found their website,wrote a eamil ,but nothing responded.so I guess the turin branch of Italian badminton Federation is not exist anymore.
Thanks a lot.

Try to check the Badminton Club of Milano.
badminton.it/home.asp
They could know sone association in Torino, or ask in some big sport equipments department (Milanesio Sport for example).
Try to call the City Hall - Secretariat for Sport
comune.torino.it/sportetempolibero/organizzazione/
They should have an updated list of every sport venue in the city.
If I find out something I'll let you know!

Hi Maarten.J,

Welcome to expat-blog!

I suggest to create a new topic as this thread is quite old, this might of great help.

Ciao,
you just have to put badminton Torino on FB and you will find all the informations.
I don't know much more as I'm now living in Nice in France.
wishing the best in Torino, a very nice city.
