The club started with Chris, Nathaniel, and Zoe with the development of the Suffolk Disability Sports Academy.  Following an Optua Showcase day in Bury St Edmunds Polly joined the club along with Oliver and Katherine.  People attending the Sports Centre are able to come and try the sport in between the badminton sessions that run at the same time as this is included within the membership price and new members are always welcome. 

From the beginning of 2008 the membership of this club has increased dramatically and as a club we seem to attract new members from every event we attend as a result the club is growing all the time. 

If the membership continues to grow at this rate we will have to look at ways of increasing capacity in the form of extra coaching sessions or more equipment but all is reliant on funding.   

Coaching is provided by Neil Thomas, Ann Thomas, Louise Pennell and Daniel Collins.  All training programs try to work with individuals with a tailored program where possible.  We are also looking to develop coaching oppertunities within the club and have on assistant coach at the moment with more looking to develop into this role in the near future.
