The Five Stars Printed On Their Kit ?

[King's]

Make the huge Star brighter...lol

Or deviate just a bit from the flag...by making 2 big stars (with 3 lesser stars) but still retaining the overall 5 stars?

[Miqilin7]

Tell that to Li Yongbo lol!!!

[madbad]

If LD wins the OG, I reckon he should have the largest star on his shirt in gold

[bad's fan]

agree with madbad! and hope it will came true. haha

btw, about chen jin, how about 1 WC, TC, sudirman cup and 1 for AE?

[LD rules!]

Han Li has 0 stars I wonder if she will be included in the Über Cup squad?

[soulless]

I think the stars represent team honours, if one represented the country in Uber, Thomas, Sudirman, Olympic games. The final star, looks like only LD has one, may even be bestowed by coach, CBA, or voted on by players as recognition for distinguished service.

I don't think they are for individual achievements because the Chinese have always emphasized team achievement and team identity. If you look at LYB's management style (all the Chinese strategic withdraws), all he cares about is Gold for China, not any particular players, so being a minesweeper (Chen Jin) counts as "service".

If these stars recognize individual achievements, the reward system may is in conflict with LYB's strategy. Because with rank comes pulling rank and dissension among the ranks, as such players will be unwilling to sacrifice for "the greater good". If these stars reward team achievement, then the players will merely desire to be included and behave like loyal foot soldiers. Somebody mentioned that fives stars = five star general, I think this is false, more likely they represent battles fought and medals of valor rather than rank. This very similar to the army. We all know who the five star general is on the team, that is reserved for LYB.

Just my 2 cents

[bad's fan]

interesting opinion, soulless.
but if counted based on team, there would be only 3 stars to fullfil, Uber/Thomas, sudirman and OG. what are the 2 other stars stands for?

I think a small star maybe given if the athlete represent the country multiple times in a winning effort. So if China won sudirman twice in four years, the athlete may get two. The big star, like I said stand for recognition and more subjective. Now my theory is less precise then others posted here, but everyone of them so far have been falsified.

if we dontnknow the answer, some of the opinions might be correct.

I agree the 5 stars are to do with the chinese flag in some way, and they relate to major champsmvictories.

This is a company specifically for the Chinese players lining design, there are five stars, but the real star counts, each star represents a world championship title. Lin Dan game and served on the star most, a total of five, become the" five-star" admiral, and coach Li Yongbo shirt although there are five stars, but one big and four small and Lin Dan vary; like Cai Yun, Fu Haifeng has four stars.


The five-star, on behalf of the badminton five traditional events: the Olympic Games, world championships, world cup, Su Diman cup and the thomas cup and uber cup . Each player gets a five tournament in Jersey on several titles, you can get a solid core of the pentagram!

这款比赛服是由李宁公司赞助中国羽球队的，每位球员从外套到比赛服，右胸襟都绣着形状不同或实或虚的五颗星 星。李永波解析说，这是李宁公司特意为中国球员设计的，都有五颗星，但实星才算数，每颗星都代表一个世界冠 军的头衔。林丹比赛服上的星最多，共五颗，变成“五星”上将，而教练李永波的队服虽然也有五颗星，但一大四 小与林丹有所不同；而蔡赟、傅海峰都有四颗星。
五星，代表了羽毛球传统的五大赛事
奥运会，世界杯，世锦赛，苏迪曼杯还有汤尤杯
每个球员得到了五大赛事的几个冠军
就能在球衣上得到一颗实芯的五角星！

The big star came from winning the Olympic Games. Zhang Ning might have 2 Big stars embedded at her Jerseys..

How many stars do Yu Yang and Wang Xiaoli have?

[Miqilin7]

How many stars do Yu Yang and Wang Xiaoli have?

Yu Yang actually have four stars while i am not sure about Wang Xiaoli..

I dont think Yu Yang will be upgraded by one star since her missing major title is the Asian Games.

Wang Xiaoli should be three stars i think

[bad's fan]

i think that LXR already have 1 when she won AE. so to the chinese, AE is not that prestigious enough hah?

No All England is important too but not as important as the other big majors..But to be recognised globally as a top player, you must win the All England. That is a mandatory achievement..

Wang Lin ,Wang Xin and Chen Long are the only existing Chinese players that have not won the All England which i believe they will in due time. However the win wont be attributed as a Star
