Changes to social pickleball and badminton sessions at GBLC

News Update 8 October 2025
Due to increasing demand, the City of South Perth has introduced new attendance procedures for the popular social pickleball and badminton sessions at George Burnett Leisure Centre (GBLC). 

Starting on Sunday, 19 October, both sessions will be capped at 24 participants on a first-come, first-served basis. Attendees must now register at reception and collect a wristband to gain access to the courts. This change aims to ensure a fair and manageable experience for all participants. 

Players are encouraged to arrive early to secure a spot, as entry will not be permitted without a wristband. Social badminton runs from 10am-12.30pm and social pickleball from 12.30-3pm, on Sundays.
