Product Description

Review
""The illustrations and descriptions in" Badminton: Steps to Success "are easy to comprehend, and they provide players with the ability to quickly improve their skills. This book is the best resource for every badminton player."
Soohyun Bang
Olympic Gold Medalist


Product Description
This new edition will be ideal for badminton players, coaches and instructors interested in teaching, learning or improving proper stroke development, footwork, tactics and basic strategies. The additional technical content for stroke development will include racket face angle, swing size and arc, racket speed and impact point. In addition, the new version will reflect the scoring and rule changes adopted internationally in the autumn of 2006.Specifically to tie in with the new scoring will be the tactical approaches needed to respond to the new game. The second edition will retain all of the components that make it a "Steps to Success" title, in addition to adding some of the newer features such as identifying the objectives for each step.In addition to further developing the Errors section to reflect more the visually (or kinesthetically) errant result, the Corrections section has been added to focus on the technical execution. Finally, information has been included to address the more developed player with additional strokes and/or variations and more complex tactics and drills.

2.0 out of 5 stars Review from an Intermediate player, 27 Jan 2001
By A Customer
I found this book rather basic in the sense that it didn't cover enough material on the tactics for doubles or singles matches such as the 'Divorce' area. The section on serves was rather limited and did not cover the torpedo serves. The book would have greatly benefitted from photos rather than scrappy line drawings especially for a book published in 1996! All in all, I would say that this book is for beginners who don't have a proper clue or little prior knowledge on the game. Otherwise, for an intermediate player like myself, who wants to advance to a high level or near county standard, I would not recommend this book. The good thing about this book was that it featured lots of drills, although sometimes silly ones such as bouncing a shuttlecock on your racquet 30 times!

5.0 out of 5 stars Badminton Steps to Success, 28 May 2004
By A Customer
I found the content easy to follow with clear explanations and drawn pictures. Some drills were basic but could be modified with little thought to advance them. As a Physical Education teacher up to GCSE level I have found this an invaluable tool to advance both my own and pupil knowledge.
