play badminton at your place/court/gym

I'd like to play badminton at your court/place/gym next Monday night. Am I welcome?

Hi,

Does the above sound right to you? Do all of the bolded words fit in the context? I'd like to play badminton at a gym for the badminton club where a friend of mine plays.

There are no bolded words in your sentence--at least as it shows up on my screen! But you are probably referring to the choice of court/place/gym ? I think the words "court" and "gym" work well, but that "place" has too general a meaning to be clear in this context.

  • The court or gym would clearly be places where games like badminton are played, but place could refer to your friend's home--in fact, that's how I would understand it.
