I recently started playing badmintion. I was a naive, and was loosing lot of games, and were getting fraustrated. these videos helped me a lot to improve my badminton skill. And now I am a way better player player than bfore. thanks to Bojanglesbadmintion for these videos. I wish to see more videoes soon. thanks
@karansena well, few key points you always need to work on specially for single: -most important thing is placing. try to place a shot with or without force. placing is more important than smashing in single -try to find weakness of your opponent as you play. most right hand players has huge weakness on their backhand shot -try not give good shot to your opponent. then he will be in control.
@UnnamedHunterx the jump smash, when executed correctly, generates more power than the regular smash, because the legs are free to "kick" in the air and pull even more energy from the mid-body. But its the most difficult shot technically (I can't do it right yet...). See the Peter Rasmussen jump smash video.
Hi. This is Harry. I'm an intermediate player. while smashing a cork, i'm getting tricep pain. Am i playing wrong shot or is there anything else behind? if i don't play for 2 days, the pain gone. Kindly advice.
everything explained except for how the player was gripping the racket..you cannot possibly smash with the steep angle without the grip that the player has in the video...
Oh one more thing, I'm also a singles player. I know how tough it is to recover after a big jump smash. And for those who want to know how to solve this(it's gonna be obvious, but oh well) practice your smash to the fullest, the more powerful it is, the harder you make it for the opponent to return it, hitting a smash winner. (:
The racquet drop has not been mentioned. Watch where the guy is ready to smash. The striking arm is elevated and the non-striking arm is raised for balance. The weight is on the back foot and he is ready to transfer his weight into the shot. It's fast, but you can see it. The racquet drops before coming back for the contact. This is similar in tennis. You drop the racquet all the way back, as if you are going to scratch your lower back with the racquet. The elbow is raised and it leads the shot.
Hey! i'm a decent badminton player & train with my university fellows.i play both doubles & single.I don't have exceptional wrists but good at smashing yet not so good with techniques(trying to learn).I've to buy Best badminton racket within the budget of 150-200$ Looking for Yonex/Li Ning or Maybe victor although i haven't had chance to try victor,had good experience with yonex nanoray 600 & li ning n55.If somebody is aware of any helpful information pls suggest best for me. Thanks in advance.
Even after hours playing in a tournament my racket arm didn't hurt. It never does. I do always get a really stiff left shoulder though(my inactive arm). Maybe I don't move it enough.

Hi, can someone help me? Whenever i'm playing badminton at the club, there is this person who never surfs the ball and always gives it to me. So when i surf it to him he smacks it really far back on my side of the court, and when i hit it back, he is close to the net and just smashes it, or sometimes volleys it, close to the net. I ahvn't been playing long only about 1 month, he's been playing for about 7 months, but i feel im more physically fit than he is and really annoyed at him using the same strategy.
He must serve to you on his serve. -- It's the rules yo. In your serves, you have a few choices. Underarm forehand serve: Aim high and deep: high : It gives you time to center yourself for deep or net shots. deep: A deep end smash isn't as effective. Deep means in the box at the far back. You want them to almost be off court as they're hitting your shot. He can try to drop it, clear it or smash it but none of them should be threatening if your serve is good and get to base line. In your case, you want to clear better. Reason he is 'right at the net' is because you are hitting right at the 'net'. In that case, you either hit it at the 'net' really well, meaning away from him or hit it really far back again or smash at him and make it harder for him to simply kill you.
@Dudetownyann at first it's difficult but if you practice it every day , you can do it I'm 12 years old and my jump smash is almost same like taufik's From indonesia
and they're better at it because they train harder for it. Albert Sung is semi-correct; having a large pool of players would mean an increase in popularity of the sport, and an overall increase in the level of the players.
@sports guy comment 1: sue me. i meant to say that for being a pro, he should do better comment 2:how does that counter my point that it is tougher to make a full blown smash in a singles game?
