Welcome to the website of Horsham Arun Badminton Club.
Thank you for taking the time to look at our website.
HABC is a large, but friendly badminton club that caters for
players of all ages and abilities. We are the first club to be officially designated as a
Performance Centre,
but we also understand that most badminton players play to keep fit and have fun! We have a range of club, coaching
and match nights to meet the needs of all players, including beginners.
To help you find the most appropriate information for you, have a look at these links below.
If none of the above apply, or you want to talk to a human, please call Mark Hales on 01293 536668, or email
