The problem
You paid a host for a Singapore badminton gathering and the venue slot is cancelled because of rain. You do not know whose account holds the court reservation or whether your payment also covered shuttles and hosting.
Find the two transactions before chasing a refund
Your transfer to a group host and the host’s payment for the facility can be different transactions. Ask who reserved the slot and request the booking reference or a confirmation with unrelated personal details removed. Record what your own payment purchased. A single total in a group chat does not explain which part belongs to the court and which part covers the organised session.
Check the facility’s actual cancellation status
ActiveSG’s rain-refund guidance covers unused facility bookings; using the facility despite rain changes eligibility. Ask the booking holder to check the specific reservation. A forecast, a host’s cancellation message and a venue cancellation are different records. Do not describe the facility refund as approved until the booking holder has the relevant confirmation.

Ask the host about the remaining charge
Request the host’s stated policy for the session charge and any already incurred costs. Give the amount you paid, the session date and the payment reference privately. The facility’s policy does not establish how a separate organiser distributes its refund or treats consumables. If you want a replacement session, agree explicitly whether it is a transfer, a credit or a new payment.
Resolve the next booking before paying again
For another session, confirm who will contact participants, what happens if the slot becomes unusable and where the cost split is recorded. Search Boardzip for current badminton gatherings, then use the organiser’s own cancellation terms for the final choice. A verified admission price establishes the advertised charge; it does not settle a later dispute between a host and participants.
Questions and answers
Does a court refund automatically refund everything I paid the host?
No. Identify the separate transactions and ask the host how its session terms apply. Facility policy alone does not decide the treatment of the host’s other charges.
Should I submit a refund request using someone else’s booking?
Ask the actual booking holder to check it through their own authorised account. Keep your request to the host tied to your own payment and the session confirmation.
