Coached sessions?

14/3/2010

0 Comments

 
I am trying to arrange 1 hour coached sessions on Sundays, 10 am to 11 am (this is the only time available at the centre).

The sessions will be held by invitation (regular players only) for a maximum of 8 players as we have 2 courts. These sessions are suitable for those who are keen to improve or beginners who have recently taken up the games or those who wanted to know how to play better but don't know how or what went differently.

Cost is £2 per person.

Only a small cost because the aim is to help improving the standard of play so that over a period of time everybody's games can improve and our regular badminton games/sessions will be more balanced.

Please email me your response (canarywharfbadders@gmail.com) whether you are interested or not. Negative response is also appreciated.

The sessions will focus on the practical aspect of playing doubles.

Suggested areas to cover with explanation and demonstration:
1) Serve and grip
- backhand low serve

2) Rally practice (the basics in badminton games)
- engaging in a rally, "over and in"
- practise forehand, backhand, smash, net play

3) Positioning
- "front-back" formation
- "side-side" formation

4) Putting it all together - serve, rally + positioning

Singles games only?

5/12/2009

Hi friends,
Some members suggested to me about having an exclusive event for singles badminton play only, in addition to our regular Saturday's doubles/singles event. This is really for players who love to play like Lin Dan or Lee Chong Wei.

I like the idea, but I would like to get feedback from you all.  My initial thoughts are as follows:

1) the number of players will be limited to 4 or 5 players per event, so that we get good playing time.
2) RSVP on 'first come first served' basis only - no cancellation please.
3) this exclusive event will be held after work during a weekday Mon-Thursday's evening.
4) cost per person will be slightly higher, I think £6 or £7 but to be confirmed.
5) no change to our regular Saturday's event which is at £5 per person.

Let me know your thoughts, particularly if you are interested or not.  You can feedback by either replying this in our blog or via an email to canarywharfbadders@gmail.com 

I hope to update you very soon when I hear your feedback.

Thanks all,
Brian

    About us

    The London Canary Wharf Badminton Club started in 2009 as a social meetup group for people just like you who want to play badminton. Most people we know want to play badminton but either don't know where or don't have partners to play with.

    We aim to organise badminton meetup regularly around Canary Wharf and Docklands area.  If you work or live around this area, we hope you can join us for a few games of badminton.  You can also invite your friends.

    We welcome badminton players of all levels, whether you are a beginner, intermediate or advanced player. Please go to our Facebook page to book your sessions.
