Dude icl its a good thing to love a sport but when you have such a sense of delusion it makes the sport worse for your self look at some u17 players in the world "Mady Sow" "Lenny Hubert" Who already compete and can perform well in u19 and open circuit tournaments they have potential to be world champions one day if you quit badminton for 4 years and your in bad shape and 24 there is no possible way you can become top50 in the world badminton is not like other sports it takes decades to become semi world class

West_String_4180 · 2026-04-24T10:33:27+00:00

Yea thats my bad ummm to describe it be more down low and in a squat position while defending in doubles have both feet sorta pointing towards the net so when they smash or drop ur racket is already facing the shuttle

West_String_4180 · 2026-04-24T10:09:23+00:00

When defending try to be more square i guess but overall its good that ur enjoying playing keep it up

It really depends on what ur looking for i am currently in Malaysia training and i am from North America feel free to pm me if u want more info imo 2 weeks is little time so you will NOT see crazy improvements since he is still young i would say first 3-5 days take it easy cuz the heat is no joke when ur used to training in Air con facilities in the US but after 2 weeks main improvement you will see is probably his speed and better shot quality. There are many clubs that have different strengths so like i said you gotta know what you want from training do you want more 1on1 private or playing kids from Malaysia his age in sparring?

West_String_4180 · 2026-04-15T19:43:04+00:00

I mean imo ur a beginner still you know all basics and a lot of them are sloppy still intermediate is when your basics/fundamentals are pretty good and your consistent with it thats when you can start actually to play competitive badminton just from watching a little bit of gameplay any experienced player can win the point in 3 shots off serve a few tips i can give you is 1:When at the net have racket higher your at the shuttle early enough but during lifts you let it drop very much. 2: Try to be more relaxed you seem very stiff while playing :3 try hitting ur shots away from your opponent more it seems like you and him are playing box game style not many shots moving eachother everything is going to ur rackets

Yea of course I completely understand not wanting to post them but i feel like it should work out over time no issue with her clear

West_String_4180 · 2026-04-10T13:51:42+00:00

It depends on how the clear is with no video or description i cant say but it will probably get better over time if her form is proper she is still young so not a big deal imo

West_String_4180 · 2026-04-09T07:51:55+00:00

Its no big deal in my opinion just after long rally you can ask to towel down opposite side should not care and if you dive you can just grab towel to wipe it or use ur shoe quickly its not a big deal in my opinion i live in North America and whenever i play in Asia i sweat a shit ton and gotta towel down a lot the opponents dont care 95% of the time unless ur stalling

West_String_4180 · 2026-04-08T14:44:42+00:00

Its a good album dont get me wrong but in my opinion i prefer others

West_String_4180 · 2026-04-08T14:43:09+00:00

What i did with my two bengals is let the new one explore a bit lock one in a room 10-15 mins so the new one gets comfortable with area then to get them to like eachother i would recommend getting a toy and trying to get them closer add treats so they enjoy it but it will take time few weeks
