    I have just lost my coaching sponsorship with HEAD as they have stopped investing in this sector, which means my search now begins for a new Badminton Sponsor, one of the reasons I went with HEAD was because of their link with the charity Cool Earth

    See: http://www.coolearth.org/296/coolearth-31/supporters-151/head-nv-359.html

    I would be interested to know who Badminton Central Members think is the most environmentally friendly Brand?

    Please let me know your thoughts

    Honestly, I think it is very little difference between the top brands Li-Ning, Yonex and Victor when it comes to environemnt issues. I know both Yonex and Li-Ning have switched to more environemnt friendly paint, not sure about Victor..

    I know Li-Ning have a special line of detox clothing/shoesetc. so maybe LN is something to check out in more detail about their badminton gear production and commitment?
