    I was wondering anyone might have experience this situation and would like to know how they overcome the problem.
    The senario: I was doing quit well 6 months ago in doubles badminton.
    I was able to cover backcourt well as well as front, netshot, dropshot
    drives and smash was excellent.
    But somehow lately few months, the only thing I can do is smash.
    and clear.

    a)How can a player performance drop within months?
    b)Is this a sign of fatigue?
    c)Do I need to stop badminton for a while to come back with a fresher look?
    d)Is it because lack of training? I just usually play because none of
    the club player willing to train. They think is boring and waste of time.
    e)Or maybe I lost focus and need to concerntrate?

    So what can I do to come back playing well again?Any Idea/ suggestion?

    some drills will do you good. without a regular brushing up of your skills, it is possible for some skills to degrade. esp if you are only playing games. you mind will be focus on the games instead of the shots itselfs. drills will let your mind and body get used to the shots itself.

    also if you think you are burned out, fatigue, lost focus, then changing to a different routine will help you gain those back.

    another thing to try is to visit another gym, play with different ppl. some times that will bring the focus back into you.
