The shuttlecock (or shuttle) is a feathered projectile whose unique aerodynamic properties cause it to fly differently from the balls used in most racquet sports; in particular, the feathers create much higher drag, causing the shuttlecock to decelerate more rapidly than a ball. Shuttlecocks have a much higher top speed, when compared to other racquet sports. Because shuttlecock flight is affected by wind, competitive badminton is played indoors.
Badminton is also played outdoors as a casual recreational activity, often as a garden or beach game.
Stuart Ingram Badminton Coach
I am a fully qualified Badminton England(level 2) Coach.
Badminton coaching is aimed to develop players to their best ability.
Coaching is available at all levels and standards, whether you are a social player, club member or playing matches at County standard.
Using up to date coaching routines and programs I help players with accuracy and consistancy of shots whilst improving movement around the court.
Sessions will include some 'high work rate' activities, but lose none of the enjoyment!
