Focusing on opponents and birdie at once

[llp1kab0oll]

I'm a boys doubles player and I have noticed that I have a difficulty of focusing on where my opponents are on their side of the court and on the birdie itself. Usually I'm okay if they hit a shot to the front part of my side of the court but when they drive it or clear it to the back part of the court, especially the corners, I have a hard time focusing on the moving birdie and my opponents. Any comments or suggestions?

Try to get behind the shuttle quickly, so that you can take it in front of your body. If you can do this, the you will be able to see the shuttle and the opponent together.
