Great content guys!! Funnily enough, this isn't too far off in terms of what I do when teaching and training, will definitely take on board with the mid-court drills as I don't do them enough. I would love to see practices that involve 3,4 and even 5 people on the court, as it can be just as fun and effective. Keep up the great work!

[@BadmintonInsight]

That’s good to hear! You can do these practices with 3 people as we mentioned in the video. If you have 4 people 2 people can feed and 1 person can work and then the other can work whilst they rest. We will also we showing doubles routines in the future which have 4 and 5 players on the same court

[@Fedibow]

Thank you Greg and Jenny for sharing these great practices ! Like many of us said before, the last exercise is soooo effective ! Being able to defend calmly at the net and not lifting everytime is so powerful at my level. Love you guys ! Cheers !

[@BadmintonInsight]

You’re very welcome! Thanks a lot 😀😀

[@rb-ex]

packed with helpful practice advice. even if you're familiar with these exercises the execution and emphases are very helpful. lay off, loopy, and turns are UK-specific terms. dont worry! they dont mean anything embarrassing in the US, though they could give those of us from across the pond a little pause. lay-off seems be an efficient way of saying, come to mid-court and play the net area. in china, where i train and play, it's called fang wang (放网). thanks for a beautifully produced, compact, and helpful video. i think the best feature is that we see you on the court doing while you are explaining, and the more footage we see of you guys working, the better the viewing experience is-- cuz it's great fun to watch you guys practice and play

[@BadmintonInsight]

Thanks a lot for the comment! 😀 Yes we do realise some words won’t translate that well! But often we don’t know what else to call them so hope people can understand and add them to their ‘badminton dictionary’!

[@miaouscleaumonocle]

Best video for doubles played Thanks a lot

[@BadmintonInsight]

Thank you 😊 Glad we can help!!

[@sunsetorange89]

This video confirms to me what I already knew. I lift way too much. Rather than risking playing the net or getting to the shuttle early enough to push it, I'll do a high lift to get out of trouble. I rely on my defense too much, which I get away with at the level I currently play. But I would get pumelled at the higher level. Do you two offer in person coaching, or are you too busy with KZbin and full time training? I bet you could charge a premium over others in your area based on your channel alone.

[@BadmintonInsight]

Glad it has helped! Unfortunately we don’t at the moment however we are planning some coaching weekends so keep an eye out on our social media channels for more information 😀

[@Impulsage]

A great video! Just one question since I don't know any multishuttle exercises from training: The difference between "mid-rear" and "mid-court control" is that the "feeder" stands more in front doing "mid-court control", so that the feeder can play more downwards and by that putting the worker more under pressure?

Even coming back after 3-14 days after no badminton you'll feel like you are playing bad. Get plenty of rest and good food, be in a good mood and do a decent warmup to feel comfortable and confident

[@lokeshprajapat.02]

Badminton insight should we smash from the back of line or not ? And if not than why not to hit smash from back of line plz tell me 🙏🏻🥺 this will help me

[@BadmintonInsight]

There’s no right or wrong answer! You can smash but because you are right at the back it’s easier for them to defend. Of course you might want to smash if you still think you can win the point, and also to ‘keep them on the toes’ but instead you might use more angles and variation in attack!

Hi guys ... I love your videos. One suggestion ... Please do not give 10 tips in one video... It makes for a quick and exciting viewing . But it is hard to put it in to practice after the overload of information. I suggest you take a couple of these practices and go a little more deeper. It is ok if the video is shorter.
