hi.. I want to know if there are some really GOOD badminton coaching centres in Japan( especially Tokyo) because most probably next year, I am going to Japan for my enginerring under Foreign Language Student Scheme and I will be there for about 4-5years.
right now, I have been playing for about 3 years and I play ok. My age- 16 years, My height-5'3 feet My weight-56kgs
So please tell me some good coaching centres in NIPPON
http://www.badmintoncentral.com/forums/images/misc/progress.gif

by the way, I can speak and read Japanese. I can read Hiragana and Katakana very well and Kanjis......I know about some 100 of them.

I haven't heard of any badminton-coaching centres in Japan, but I'm pretty sure that there'll be a バドミントン部 at the university you'll be attending.

hi jhirata doomo arigato gozaimasu

hi,
There are many badminton club in Tokyo.
my friend teach badminton in Shibuya on Friday night.
When you ask about badminton skills and training, I am sure that team mates teach you anthing.
So join some clubs near your place.

you can find badminton club on this website in Japanese

Miyuki san, arigato gozaimasu.Sumiamsen ga, I want badminton academy...for training..not justplaying games....I need to improve a lot

You want to train to become a badminton professional?
In Japan, players as same as your age are in high schools as famous for badminton.
They don't go to a badminton academy.
I think there is no academy for training for high school student.
But there are many good players in Tokyo.
I am sure they teach you if you want to train in serious, and invite you to a club where good players join.
I told you about a lesson gym in Shibuya.
My friend is a good player in Shibuya area and he know many good places.
So if possible, I recommend you to go there once.

Or there are some academy for elementary school and junior high schoo students.
If you are OK, you may be able to join the club.

Japanese amatur players want to improve their badminton levels.
They usually train in serious after working.

So in Japan, you can train hard to improve your badminton anywhere you want.

By the way, you can focus on only badminton, there is some technical university which has a major for badminton.
But you can enter the university after graduating high school.

There are many way to meet with good badminton players in Japan, but few badminto academy.

thank you very much Miyuki san. That was really helpful

If there arent many academies then, how did Japan's top player and national players train?

Which is that university? I might try joining there. By the way, I am in 11th standard and I will come to NIPPON afterfinishing my 12 th standard(12th grade). Please tell me the name of that Badminton university

..anek999(Anek), you should've visited the Tournaments sub-forum/section! We could've had possibly a BC get-together this yr (or perhaps next yr) at the Japan Open; and considering you know quite a few Thai players, too...:cool:
anyway, hope to meet you one of these days for a BC get-together!:cool:

Miyuki san, arigato gozaimasu.Sumiamsen ga, I want badminton academy...for training..not justplaying games....I need to improve a lot

I met Shu Wada, Rei Sato and some other top Japanese junior players ( they lost to keita masuda and tadashi ohtsuka, first round at the japan open ). I questioned them about how they train, and they replied saying that they attend a boarding school and they train nearly every day.

I'll ask them again if they attend the KLRC NZ Open later in November.

Alot of schools join the inter-high national tournament, so people train very often to compete in it.

Thank you for replying me so fast !
Let's have some Badminton play together next year during
Yonex Open Japan 2009. The stadium and Shibuya area is not
far, then it's so convenient to play with you and teams.
What day and time you usually play ?
I hope it will be great experience for me to have chance to play with you in Japan.

That's it ! You got the right answer I've had in mind.
I totally forgot the name of this court in L.A.
Also I had chance to play with this guy.. he is Chinese. Is ALEX his name?
He was introduced to me by my cousin who now still lives in L.A. and play at this court with his Hong Kong friends.

..he is coach Alex Liang:

I cant believe it ! Miyuki already visited the SGV court in L.A.
If possible, let's hook up in Tokyo next year or you may visit Bangkok and join me in Bangkok. Have you ever been to Bangkok Miyuki?

Yeah, I had visited Bangkok 10 years ago, but I didn't imagine that I could play badminton in Bangkok. Almost Japanese players didn't know how to find a place to play in other country...

Maybe I will go to KL on Feb next year. I hope I can drop by Bangkok or you can come KL!
