Basic Footwork
 | basic
footwork is another key aspect of badminton |
 | you can not hit the shuttle if you can not properly get to the shuttle |
 | focus on moving on the "balls" of your feet |
 | use shuffle steps (not crossovers) |
 | footwork is important because it helps us get in the right position to
perform good strokes |
 | as well as being in the right position it is vital to be in balance |
 | here is a tip on how to put variation into footwork exercises and make
sure that the players also practice being in balance when moving into the
different corners |
Tip
 | instead of moving around and hitting from the corners you can place
shuttles that the players shall pick up from one corner and then put down
in another |
 | the shuttles are not to be thrown but placed standing on the feathers |
 | by doing this the player need to be in balance when stepping into the
corner |
 | begin with three shuttles in the back right corner and three shuttles in
the back left corner |
 | start in the middle of the court just behind the t-line, this is your
base position |
 | bring all of the shuttles from the back to the front |
 | NOTE: you always need to go back to the base position when moving |
 | everyone should do the drill two times |
 | 10 minutes |
