I love my sportsclub. When the entire country (well almost) stops abdminton. we go jogging/sprinting in thw woods, with hills and rough sand an stuff...and after 1,5h of training (mostly interval) we play badminton...

even some singles if we feel like it (and yes, I'm a singles player, so I feel like that a lot

)

just the other day the club-talent wiped me of the court 21-17..then he was tired. so was I, time for bed

Talking about that I might come to CNH again for a retry. If I have time..since I'm off for piano for 2 months--teacher's getting a baby.

I keep playing badminton but not as often...Beach Volleyball and soon to be golf and tennis will take over the summer months.

I play A LOT more than usual, because school is out. 7 days a week, 4-5 hours a day. Screwed my knees up really badly though.

Went to play at a cc today..MAN did they turn the heat or something. It was so stuffy and hot. My friend was complaining too lol. But I'm pretty sure it's nothing clue to the summer. Hehehe bring 100000 shirts!!!

I'm just curious does c2 have air conditioning in the summer?

**JoeM.** · 03-24-2007, 06:51 AM

yep, keep on playing, but I do more for my endurance, strenght, footwork etc...

**robc06** · 03-25-2007, 06:14 AM

I play throughout the year. I use Summer as my off season and work on my base fitness. Running and lots of pre season training on court as well.

At my association we are trying to push for the Summer pennant to be as competetive as the other pennants.

heehhe this is the time when i love clearone, played 16 hours in 2 days this week = )

In the summer holidays our gyms are closed. Doesn't mean I stop playing Badminton during summer, but I play less often because we have to go to Badminton centers and that gets quite expensive within 6 weeks.
So I try to build up my general fitness during summer holidays, more running, skipping, and fun sports like inline skating and so on.

**azn_123** · 08-20-2007, 12:48 AM

Currently I play almost every day!

I love it

**phibian** · 09-03-2007, 11:24 PM

Do I keep playing over the summer? I wish. I would if it wasn't for the stupid city strike!

Bussing it from downtown to Richmond seriously sucks! I did manage to get a ride to Yumo a couple of weeks ago, so hurray for that.

**z3048018** · 04-09-2008, 06:40 AM

heck, there's air-con where i play - who cares about the weather outside?

I play over summer, the clubs are open for like the whole year, except for the Christmas holidays. But when the clubs here are closed for summer, I'm in Japan and it's winter

. But I can't play well in Japan, it's so hard to get used to the conditions of the courts there. Courts with many different lines, etc.. I can't quite tell where the outlines are either.. maybe the courts I play at in NewZealand are too good. The temperature is also hard to get used to.. my hands get all cold on the way to the courts in Japan and they feel numb and seems like they've expanded or something.. very annoying..
