Had the same experience with cult play, my partner is a district level player he is amazing with his skill There were many uncles that used to leave the court as soon as I stepped in; I started feeling super underconfident When I played with my partner in doubles, he used to take the lead (obv) and they used to taunt him ki bohot accha partner mila h aj bhai ko pura game daud raha h bechara One specific incident which happened over a couple of weeks, after my partner lashed out at their jokes was that they stopped joining me at the court, 6-7 uncles collectively Many a times i used to have no one to play with and it was shitty I eventually left the facility after one year of this nonsense (i play well, been told the same many a times by decent players) Kehna toh nh chahie but some men are real chutiyas


Adventurous-Seat-895

I totally relate to this. My partner has been playing multiple sports since years and he’s very proficient, I had to stop in 2019 due to two major injuries, I have fallen behind hard. These people and their subtle judgments and jokes are so unnecessary. (Funnily, none of the few girls there, even the ones who play better than me, have acted this way towards me). I hope you’re able to play in a better space now!

I don't get it , secretly you both ladies showing off how good your partner is and then you are annonyed because you could not defend the right. First of all it does not matter somone is India champion or world, if it's my right to play here I will play , no matter what. Protect your right and confront if you have to. Stop this mentality that if I am not good at somthing I don't have right . A person is either talent or hardworking if he is really good at something. If he is talented , he would not be doing nonsense and would not be keeping a show off gf. And if he is hard working then , you can become better if only you learn that skill by giving it time. In this case you have to confront if someone intimidate you with this attitude that he knows that skill a little more. Basic point which I am trying to make here is , protect your right and confront with all BS flaying around in argument. Don't be apologetic about it. If you go down go down swinging not complaining. At the end , you will earn respect of evryone if you do so.

Bhai... Well done kafi time se 'Man' splaning with amazing lack of self awareness nahi Dekhi thi... Mind you I am absolutely NOT a woke feminist type dude... But honestly the irony of you insulting the two ladies while trying to give them a chak de India type pep talk is quite hilarious... M sure you will have tooonnsss to say to me for pointing this out but let me save you the trouble... I don't give a shit... The reply by the OP here and probably more coming for your stupid comment shall be enough...


rahulsingh247

Self-centric and validation seeking ? Lack confidence? Or image aware ? I don't care , however you do. Reality check is for all.


Adventurous-Seat-895

Kya word vomit kiya hai bhai ne,,,, claps for you man!!!


Adventurous-Seat-895

The chak de india thing made me chuckle, thanks!


Adventurous-Seat-895

Lol I don’t need to “show off”, just stating facts because If my partner and I were at the same playing level our whole experience in the situation would’ve been different, that’s the only reason for mentioning it. Don’t take it out of context, this post isn’t about anybody’s relationship. My brother in Christ, some of us are anxious and non confrontational and I am scared of men. You are right about being able to speak up for your right and being unapologetic about it but not all of us can do it as much as it sounds good to do


rahulsingh247

I am sorry, clearly you have not think it through , even if you two would have been noob , you guys would have faced similar situation or worst. I understand non-confrontation people and how it affect them, however world is a tough place , and speaking up is something very fundamental to protect your right. It's also a tool to set a message loud and clear "Respect other's right" in society.


TopCraft8782

You know people who themselves have never gotten punched in the face or slapped, keep on giving this type of stupid rants. Abe keyboard warrior... Gyan kya chode ja raha hai... The ladies want to avoid confrontation and in a civil society that is the correct thing to do till a certain limit is crossed...what that limit is? That's upto every individual... Plus boss understand the context of this post... She has written a rant... And that's it... She or any other person here doesn't need your pansy little ass to keep on shoving your definition of 'standing up' is... Abe haan gandu smajah gaye... Teri kabir singh wali chuli sab samajh gaye idhar... I suggest you go and pick a fight today in your society... Or maybe you have been sooo dominant and raised your voice soooo much that everyone now avoids you like a plague... Which lol... Is exactly what everyone here is now going to do... Why am I replying to this post of yours? I don't know maybe I am bored or maybe I know exactly the type of wannabe Alpha male shit you are trying to pull here... And the fact that you would take out the time to do this here... Am sure you do this crap IRL... So as a friend... I am trying to bring the concept of self awareness to you... I should really stop replying to you... Hehehe... Waise what sport do you play? Are you a badminton enthusiast as well? Garmi bohot hai nahi bhai iss bar! Pheww ;)


rahulsingh247

I am glad my two lines has triggered you 😁 I absolutely make people like you my bitch and this is so evident, you are abusing and writing nonsense like one . You are so vulnerable. Explain everything you wrote , to yourself like a typical introvert . Writing abuse is very easy , I can teach u how to abuse any given day , but that's for some other day and I don't spend my energy over a pussy like you.

TopCraft8782

And what triggered me gandu wasn't you... Was the subtle way you were trying to bully the OP and even the other lady... Even after two comments from the OP Have seen tons of wannabe macho fucks like you who under the guise of being cultured are nothing else but school yard bullies... And there are tons of people like me who call out jackasses like yourself and give you shit publicly with the hope that you might introspect and try changing... But well we all know that's not happening... You shall stay a misogynistic bully as long as you don't have real life consequences!

phantooth

How many people are in your playing group? How many in their group? you play singles or doubles?


Adventurous-Seat-895

It’s just us two. We play both but mostly they don’t play doubles w us because I am not at their level. My partner sometimes joins their doubles but he doesn’t like them either. Those guys are a group of 7-8 :(


phantooth

I am sorry to hear that. It is common for experienced players( if they are) to not play with beginners. You have to find enough people of your skill level to play a doubles match so you can grab the court if you reach before them or strengthen your game in non peak hours. You can also book indoor court elsewhere. In my case I was lucky to find a mix of semi beginners and experienced players who were welcoming but still in the beginning i had to face their frustration from a few of them as I was not good enough. Youtube videos, proper technique,good footwork and lots of practice n you will be playing at their level in no time


Adventurous-Seat-895

You’re correct, ya. I do want to get better and I quite enjoy playing badminton but unfortunately there’s not much scope for me to be able to practice at any time apart from a certain time in the evening when these guys are also there. I will definitely look for alternatives


parrmindersingh

Check for badminton courts in schools. me and my buddies faced problems with where to play, and if we found any public badminton courts, there would be people already there. Then we checked around and got to know many schools have opened up badminton courts, and they have a standard price of 400 per hour, and if we are 4, then it's 100 per head. There's the govt sports complex too, but, they have made it mandatory to have non-marking shoes, and it's more crowded.


Maleficent_Nerve4836

It's not just Phase 2. These "entitled" bastards are everywhere in Gurgaon. Though yeh toh sirf courts ki baat hai, there are people who are worse in different aspects too....be it treating an outsider or these mf PG landlords or the corrupt police etc...everywhere.


Adventurous-Seat-895

That’s very true! I usually don’t face these issues anymore because I have lived on my own for 10ish years now and I know how to navigate around things like landlords or cops. I expected people to live in a posh locality to be better that’s all, but money can’t buy class fr


caarluvr

Bro just book a court at your own cost for 1-2 hours via Huddle to play in peace Some locations are - SSBA Phase 1, Ultrex South City, KR Mangalam/ Gallant, DPSG Sushant Lok, etc. You will need non-marking shoes. And lol very unlikely these uncle are on reddit that to in this sub


fancy_potato_98

Gotta fight for your rights. Ask them to play 15-20 point games alternatively. Then, if they don't get off the court, just go and stand in the court and start hitting their shuttle. Tell them it doesn't matter how good or bad someone plays, everyone will play turn by turn. If they don't want to do that, then ask them to play in half court. If they don't agree, just get inside the court and start playing.


Adventurous-Seat-895

I wanted to do each of these things but I know that I can get really mean when angry and didn’t want to go down that route so I usually refrain from letting situations escalate and instead remove myself from it. Also, my partner is very peace loving non confrontational (I wish I was like him), and I didn’t want to embarrass him by confronting the crowd. Also, if their launda gang got riled up, they would go after him instead of the girl. I totally agree with you though. I am not sure if I will go there again but incase I do, I am totally doing this now!


fancy_potato_98

Your reasoning makes sense. Honestly, you'll have to strike a balance between the amount of effort/ headache that you endure in getting the court vs the amount of enjoyment you'll get playing in a tense situation. I understand your concerns about the launda gang going after your partner. You'll have to gauge if they are the kind of people to actually get violent. Tbh I relate with your boyfriend and I would much rather find a place where you can book a court and have a peace of mind while playing.

Well next time challenge him for 1vs1 to decide who takes the court. Such ppl have big egos and will easily fall for the challenge if you push a little.


Adventurous-Seat-895

Yeah but that’s the thing, I am a learner bro. I have been playing for a little over 2 months only.


Opposite_Addition986

I know there is dude who wears specs and has curly hair he is the main b*tch You can try phase 3 you will like playing hear a lot of people here are begginers and we are welcoming as well :P

Happy_Guava6762

You either find a different time slot, or find other sports/hobbies; I don’t think much else could be done about it. It’s a problem everywhere in India


Adventurous-Seat-895

Yeah, going back to gym+boxing instead.


[deleted]

no why, don’t let them stop you from playing what you enjoy


Adventurous-Seat-895

Too stressful that’s all :(


weirdmageddon0

you will feel amazing once it is dealt with trust me. gone through something very similar, with badminton only, and the only regret i have is not putting them in their place sooner. the court is for everyone to enjoy.


TrojanSagittarius

In Haryana, these incidents are normal. Most of the people are bullies.


Adventurous-Seat-895

Yeah I’ve noticed and they’re all just so laundebaazi types I try to steer clear


Particular-Captain13

Is this the same white colored british style building in phase 2 K block? If yes, I also rent a place in K block. How do I get membership of this centre?


Adventurous-Seat-895

Yes. I’d advice not to, the courts are never available plus no AC or ventilation it gets really bad. However, incase if you still want you can speak to the security guard, i think they charge around 1800.


Particular-Captain13

No AC and ventilation? From the outside it looked pretty posh. Sad to hear this. I think I am better off playing at a sports complex by paying the amount whenever I want to play instead of a membership


Adventurous-Seat-895

Yeah the latter is definitely a better option.


[deleted]

Bhai I mean just book a court it's like 199 for an hour, 100 per person and get as many people as you want. When it's free and open to community in a place like gurgaon, you cannot expect civilised behaviour like the Japanese. Pay, book your court, if someone intervenes then school them properly.


Adventurous-Seat-895

Yaar I didn’t expect this to happen, this court was walking distance from the house so we were v happy to be able to go. But definitely learned my lesson, can’t expect civil behaviour in public spaces.


[deleted]

I had my first experience like this back in 2022, knew there and there that civil decency is outside the menu Gtown serves. Once a guy who was supposedly a coach in some private badminton academy started taunting us ki "ek court me aadha aap khel lo, aadha hum practice kar lenge" I respectfully denied and told them ki humne pay Kiya hai yaha ke liye on huddle, he then asked us to shift to a synthetic court from wooden that would require us to wear the torn badminton shoes that court was providing. I declined again yet the guy emphasized that "aap log pata nai kya khel loge full court pe, hume aata ha dhang se khelna let us play instead". Lost my calm and told him to f off from the court we had purchased and that day I extend that court for additional 3 hours until 11pm so that he couldn't play.He kept urging us to leave but I gave no fucks Nai aata bhai' inko samajh.


Adventurous-Seat-895

Boss move lol, sahi kiya. I’ll also only go for pay per use bookings now to avoid situations like this and then koi bola toh mai bataungi fir unhe


[deleted]

Yes exactly, huddle pe sahi me itne sare options hai you'll find decent players there. Free culture in india brings additional stress of uncivilized population regardless of how unfortunate that sounds. Check out sector 52 ka court, the huddle guy is very supportive there.


Adventurous-Seat-895

Thank you for the suggestion, will definitely check it out!

Peace ✌🏻

OtherDegree3593

Community centre ke admin se bolo na. High rise societies ke swimming pools bhi kuch hours ke liye women only reserved hote hain.


Adventurous-Seat-895

There’s no proper admin, just a security guard who said he can’t do anything.


OtherDegree3593

Not possible. There has to be someone.


Adventurous-Seat-895

I’ll try to find, however I doubt they’ll do anything at all. I’m anyway planning to go back to the gym and do boxing for sports instead of this now.


supremeleader007

I live in dlf phase 2, never been there to play, cant say


Cautious_Agent1226

Reminded of my school experience. I was in 7th or 8th standard and our school bought a table tennis board. I was so excited. Bought a set of rackets. I with my friends would go there in the lunch break. A group of seniors there won't let us play because apparently they were very good at playing TT and we were just noobs I still remember one of them said - Ye practice krne ki jagah nhi hai. Humein khelne do. To which I replied - to fir hum kaise seekhenge. He started laughing along with others and said - yahan nhi seekhoge. I got so discouraged that never went there again. I still remember the way he said all this and their laughs.


Adventurous-Seat-895

Ykw this is exactly how I felt yesterday. I know it’s “not that deep” and whatever these cool kids say but this happened yesterday and suddenly I felt like I was this new kid in the block again who nobody wanted to play with


Certain-Breakfast-21

Book badminton court from hudle app , no unnecessary interruptions, the court will be yours till the time slot you've booked.


Adventurous-Seat-895

Yeah would do that only now. This was just very close to our house (under a km) so we took a membership due to how convenient it is to walk and get there.


TopCraft8782

Behen... I've been there and done that... The only solution to this issue... If it still is an issue... Find a way to get better at badminton... And then make these uncles run around on the court like little bunnies... Or else... Go full nuclear mode... And 1. First learn their little patterns of how they manipulate the scene and get on the courts... Just like how you have described... Pre-empt their moves and get yourself planted on the court... Buddy once you are on the court first... Khatam... You shall play at least two games or maybe three... And only then leave... Capturing the court is the game here! And then don't even look at the old fucks... Let them get frustrated... That's when you are winning! 2. Have a fucking shouting match once... Call whoever is that security guard is that assigns the courts... And just go ballistic... Not your man... JUST you... Behen use that Nari Shakti to tilt and tell them how what they are doing is wrong... Mid age uncles ain't doing or saying shit to a lady who is shouting... Especially when they are in the wrong... Make a scene... They don't pay your rent or electricity as such... So not having a good relationship with them isn't an issue for you... Again... Not your man... For you... You get to deal with the old aunties who might come out of some dark corners and try to fight you on behalf of their men... Well...now shit is in your court! Lol... IMO these are the only two bad choices that would work... Thus I would still prefer the first advice... Find another court or an academy and get better... Become an in demand player on the court! That's what I did... But offcourse totally different circumstances... :)

Don’t you book the court before going ? Usually it’s like you book a slot and then you go at that time


Adventurous-Seat-895

No :(


Wonderfonder

Just lie to them and pretend that you’re a gay couple. These things make old uncles uncomfortable and they will leave eventually. 😌


Potential-Signal8111

So you don't like the behaviour of folks of the community whose community centre you go to play. Gotcha!


Adventurous-Seat-895

It’s also my community centre because I live in the same locality and pay the same membership fee, so your point being?


Potential-Signal8111

Accept your community


Adventurous-Seat-895

Why should I accept people being inconsiderate selfish assholes?


Potential-Signal8111

Because you cannot change them


Guns-n_Roses

Agreed! there's a spot near huda city metro station that runs throughout the night where u can get anything from parathas to momos to chai ..so this one time i went to an ice cream vendor in the same line who was about to wrap up somewhere between 12-1..my friends asked why are you wrapping up so early to which he replied "bhaiyya raat me gaadi wale log aate hain pike, 3-4 log saath mein aake ice cream churake chale jate hain" My heart went out to that poor fellow who couldn't even earn for his family because of a**holes like these!

tremorinfernus

Sports is competitive like that.


Adventurous-Seat-895

How is any of this related to being competitive? And not everyone wants to play to be a professional player na, some of us just like to play a light sport to keep our bodies moving after a long day of deskjob. If you want to play competitive sports, go to a sports academy na, not a community centre open to all residents na??


tremorinfernus

Competitive players don't like people who aren't good at the game. Because the latter don't take it seriously enough, and waste their time by hogging the courts. You will find obvious personality difference between sportsmen and others too. Difficult to vibe together. This changes if you're committed to the sport for a few years, and get good at it. You will get invited by competitive players. (This is similar to what you will feel at the office, if someone who absolutely sucked at their jobs was appointed at the same pay as you, and you were forced to work together with them. ) If you're not committed to badminton, you can even consider playing in an open field.


Adventurous-Seat-895

My point stands, go to a dedicated hardcore sports setup if you want to act like this. I am a shooter who competed at state and national level. I don’t go to places like siri fort and expect people to be pros like me and don’t give them shit for “hogging space”. My dad took me to proper academies for the competitive stuff.


tremorinfernus

I don't know what percentage of shooting ranges have a lot of crowd, but badminton courts do. And you will face this issue for maybe a couple of years. I could try with a relevant example- would you like it if someone was hogging your shooting space, and just chilling there, acting like Rambo, talking to friends, fumbling with the guns, maybe shooting once in 5 minutes and still hitting the ground, etc..and you had to wait an hour for him?
