Welcome to the Shuttlecats!

Shuttlecats is an LGBTQI+ social badminton group located in Melbourne, Australia. If you identify as a queer woman, transgender woman, non-binary individual or an ally to this community, come along for a friendly, non-competitive play. 

All skill levels welcome! We have experienced players that can offer tips during the sessions.

In light of COVID-19, stay up to date with our COVIDSafe Plan.
