Chewbacca 1st Gear September 14, 2010 Share September 14, 2010 I'm going to guess yes. I've been trying to book a slot for badminton, but it's like the slots are never free. I check at.....12.02 AM, on the day that's just been released and it's fully booked already. Is that...normal? Do people stay up till 12 just to book this? And I guess the day is released for booking exactly at the strike of midnight? Jesus, badminton is bloody popular. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamstart 1st Gear September 14, 2010 Share September 14, 2010 Think is 2 weeks advance booking right? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewbacca 1st Gear September 14, 2010 Author Share September 14, 2010 KNN, WTF!? I searched the minute the icanbook clock hits 12, for the newly released date (29th). And all f--king booked already? I mean, for a few different sports hall! WTF is this s--t? That's not possible. Is there some other way to book, other than online that allows you to book beyond the normal 2 weeks? WTF this is b-------t! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I book badminton courts regularly every week, so I can honestly say i believe you're doing it wrongly. Courts get released from the system @ 7am every day for 2 weeks advance booking. Which means, if you want to book a court on the 14th of Oct, the courts will get released on the 30th of Sept @ 7am sharp. Hope this helps. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The new calendar date becomes available for choosing @ 12AM, so I assumed that's when I can start booking. But you say it's 7AM? I tried @ 730. All also full. Can't try @ 7 because that's the time I'm driving to work. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some locations are "hotter" than others, and get snapped up the moment they are released @ 7am. I suggest you look for a less popular location if the place you're trying to book is always fully booked. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bentwy Neutral Newbie September 15, 2010 Share September 15, 2010 Eh. Remember this is Singapore. The $300 million is not meant for building facilities for YOU and I. Only the sports elite. You not elite. Please queue and grab at 7am. I play badminton every tuesday night at 9PM. because anything ealier is really tough to get. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psalm3745 Neutral Newbie October 30, 2010 Share October 30, 2010 I guess a lot of these unavailable booking slots must have been booked "privately" and "under-table" during the week by those "inner circle" ppl before the "gen public" ever has the "left-over crumb of un-wanted slot" thats' why.
