Consider this.


A tube of Yonex AS-40 feather shuttlecocks costs $23.95.
With 12 shuttles per tube, each shuttle costs $1.996.

Now, for the purposes of this post, let us suppose that each shuttle lasts a single game.
In this game, the score will be 21-15.
That is a total of 36 rallies.
So, each rally costs $0.055.

Let us assume that each rally consists of an average of 8 hits.
Therefore, every time you swing your racquet, you are costing the club $0.00693.

Correct. 7/10ths of a penny. Just like that.

I hope you appreciate what the club provides for you.
And we appreciate you playing with us.
