Play Badminton for leisure

My friends and I are looking for a place to play badminton leisurely around Tokyo without having to spend too much and without going too far.

    Can you read Japanese? This site gives a list of places in Tokyo. They are rated and give the distance from the station. http://www.spot.town/spots/tokyo/-/badminton/

    I know that Shibuya Sports Center has some badminton courts open to the public. Well, it used to. I haven't been there for a while.

    I don't know of any specific places in Tokyo and it depends on the area you want to play in. I'd ask around at community centers near where you live. Usually they have a weekly schedule for activities in the neighborhood including badminton. Sometimes the clubs meet in school gyms if the community center doesn't have one. Local badminton clubs will charge a monthly membership or you can pay each time you play.

    You can register for a membership in your local sports center. Registration is usually free but you have to pay a minimal fee when you use their facilities. It should be just below 500 yen.

Japanese names you love?

I blogged yesterday about this year's top baby names in Japan, and there was quite a focus on nature and calmness in the most popular picks. I was wondering if there are any Japanese names you love for the meaning behind them. Maybe you have a friend, coworker, or even family member with a beautiful name. I'd be happy to hear what it is, and why you like it so much!
