I saw these on a new website and thought they were pretty funny. Wondered if anyone could think of any more...



Every club has them, even your own. Those members that set themselves apart from the rest of us mere mortals due to their possessing a unique talent. (Any perceived similarity to persons, alive or dead, is entirely down to their own feelings of guilt or insecurity)

The Undercover Coach – mild mannered janitor by day but come the evening throws off the disguise to become Super Coach ever willing to dispense erroneous advice to his weary partner.
The Louvre – so called because of their extensive collection of “beautifully framed” works of art.
Mini Rexy – having witnessed the motivational cries of former Indonesian superstar Rexy Mainaky, aims to emulate his hero by yelling “HASSO!” at the top of his lungs when winning a rally at 3-2 in the 1st game of a local league match.
Yoneyama’s Best Friend – otherwise known as Mr. Yonex, this player buys at least 2 items of all the latest equipment, after which his bank balance is about as capacious as his talent.
The Angle Grinder – incapable of hitting the shuttle straight if their life depended on it. For example, will insist on playing a cross court net shot even though both opponents are standing waiting on the far post rather than playing it into any of the other 440 sq. feet of court.
There is a few more there, I think the site url is www.everythingbadminton.com (http://www.everythingbadminton.com/)

here are the rest:



Johnny One Shot – is an absolute master at their favourite shot and will play it at the 1st conceivable opportunity (though not necessarily at the appropriate one). However, is left without a clue what to do next should the shuttle come back.
Battlestar Galactica – weighs in the region of 18 stone. Is usually blessed with a breathtaking array of deft, deceptive touch shots. However, as their speed of movement is comparable to kicking a dead whale across a wet beach, is totally unable to employ their skill.
The Whippet – races around the court like a mad thing, stealing your shots and making a mockery of any tactical formations. Invariably stops suddenly and shouts “yours” when you least expect it.
World Knock Up Champion – Performs in the knock up with the kind of intensity most people only achieve at setting in the 3rd. Regularly bangs down huge jump smashes or kills the shuttle in to your face if you play a loose net shot.
The Unofficial Official – A player with a lengthy and illustrious career at a high level who now considers that, due to their experience, all rules of the game are applicable only with their approval.
The Windmill – stands in the middle of the court waving aimlessly at every passing shuttle but rarely coming into contact with any of them. Opposite of The Whippet

ROFL :D So very very observant...

I'm definitely a windmill! My friends always say they need to make a longer racket designed for me. ;)

*LOL* Too funny~! :D

Yeah, in doubles, Windmill becomes a normal thing for me when I'm playing front.

Oh my goodness, that is so funny. I see certain people too, but cannot think of titles of give them...something along the lines of these...

Ignorant Old Lady - Person who tries to teach other people, no matter how crappy they are. There's this lady who tried to teach this cute girl how to play once, and boy, what a stupid lady. I bet the girl can totally school her and the lady won't shut up!

"Bright" (Calling this guy Bright because I know someone like this called "Bright," which is kinda ironic.) - Thinks he knows the game well enough, and tells you what to do, when he totally sucks ass. A situation I was in with "Bright" was he was always telling me to cover the back when he goes to the front. And I was thinking, "whatever, I know what I am doing, you don't." but I was too nice to tell him. But one time I was hella ready to take the shot, and he ran/jumped back and took the shot, and hit the frame, and he said the same thing to me again, so I had to tell him "I was already in position to take the shot, but you just came back and took the shot, in that case, how am I supposed to hit it?!?!" What a dumbass...

Cheap-ass - It pretty much explains it. So cheap, won't use his own shuttlecocks! What an ass, a cheap one, that is. I know a person like this called "Dennis," who tries to teach other people too, and think he is all that, so he feels others should offer to use their own shuttles, what a prick.

Pro-Wannabe - In this case, that would be me. I try funky shots like Chen Hong does, and takes my shirt off like Lin Dan, hahahaha...(I am NOT ashamed of being one however)

Besides having no deceptive strokes, I think more or less I fit for this one... :D
