endau02,

Laser tag requires a heck lots of capital to start weh. The internal decos and high-tech equipments (baju, laser gun, night vision camera, lighting, etc). Do you have that?

If by any chance you have that money and want to make it a reality, I might be able to jump in the bandwagon with you if you don't mind having me tagging along. I can see success if that can really be done. Harbour Place really needs some entertainment. People there are willing to spend.

aiyo, ayam poorfag.

if im not mistaken, now got archery... still thinking on cheaper way to startup a tiny business there

Indoor basketball? Want to try it out with me?

tried out the baseball cages in seoul once....

fun cheap and addictive, worked out a sweat too... that might not be too expensive to start off im guessing.

ossd,

Not sure how much the pitching machine would cost. But I still prefer basketball court as it's a more popular sports among Malaysian Chinese.

yeah i know basketball is more popular but basketball when i was young.. we just played in schools or any neighbourhood tamans...

now once in a while we go either to the chinese association hall, majilis courts and sometimes even in this church. ( they quite cool about us playing as long as we pick up our rubbish after us)

baseball is quite foreign i know but theres that novelty factor... dont ask me why but its quite shiok trying to hit a ball speeding 80km/hr at your face. lol

and the space i went to had 2 floors.. had 6 cages in total... about 10' wide x maybe 40' long each with different ball speeds, had a small booth that sells drinks and ciggies and stuff, and a punching station and a small arcade... had lots of school kids there, guys were goofing around and showing off and girls were giggling.... but it was near a shopping mall and train station. total land size maybe 2 of our regular 20x70 shophouses maybe?

but its just something i picked up from travelling... might work might not work who knows...

i remembered seeing the sticker machines in 1999 in tokyo... and kids were crazy over them too and thinking to myself wouldnt it be nice if we had some of those machines in malaysia back then..

cheers!

just googled.... baseball pitching machines.... around usd350 for a pretty decent one.. not that expensive.. hhmmm..

sifus.. any thought?

Hi Jordy,

I also planning to open a rubber mat badminton court on a small town at Sabah. Will the budget same as what you mentioned?

Thanks

do u have some famous badminton star open with u? if yes den more secure

The thread seems to be died for some times. After reading the whole post, I don't get whether is it profitable to start a badminton court business.

Checklist of important criteria for a successful badminton court:-
1. Plenty of parking space (whether legal or illegal )
2. Demand around the area (of coz!)
3. Snacks/Beverage Kiosk
4. Bright environment
5. Rubber court

Anything else??

u see people still doing it after few years, sure profitable ma.. depends the demand, and your expenses.. do inside factory? or build everything from scratch on a piece of land?

my area 1 hour RM20+, 1 day they do 6 hours business also got RM140 per court. the snacks and drinks + shuttles/racquets/grip/string also earn some side income.

lol, anyone here who knows how to do badminton racket stringing ?

i think this is one of the criteria to open a badminton court...

I'm opening badminton courts in Rawang soon.
hopefully it will be a success. its only 8 courts.
it'll be squeezing if i put 9 courts.

wow!! cool!

good luck..

so how much it cost to startup this business?
