Since the information available in hand are a lot, it can become dilute to understand what's the core element that the player needs to emphasize first as a starting point before gradually learn more about how he can improve how he plays badminton.
Like any quality improvement process, without proper guidance, whatever correct input available, the output will eventually will be incorrect. In referring this to Badminton, regardless whatever theory in hands that you have on how you can improve the way you play but then, without the correct guidance on how to transform that information to proper practical knowledge, the results will eventually will be incorrect and you will not improve much. Therefore, having a trained coach, an experienced mentor or a player can help very much.
