He's probably getting paid well to teach badminton in Japan. Nice to know that other brands such as Mizuno to support him and other players.
If we look at a bigger picture and for the general good of badminton development - this is a very positive sign! I fully support this.
Its not shameful at all. We should be proud that they are promoting the game at international level and people recognise their contribution.
I agree, I'm sure in China, he has very high-level students, but if a person loves the game that much, they get involved in every way, even teaching beginner badminton. Besides, what aspiring (perhaps future Olympian) child wouldn't love to be taught by a legend? And perhaps a better question, what legend wouldn't love to have taught an aspiring pupil?
i want him to give some advices to me in MALAYSIA....:crying::crying::crying: Zhao Jianhua, my idol.....
haha, i think those youngsters are so lucky they get to be coached by the master, even if it is only for a little while. i do like the top and shorts he's wearing as well!
Zhao Jianhua is a Canadian treasure? No lah, I think 6 woods in Chinese... However, if China considers Zhao a treasure... er... they sure don't treat him like a treasure today... If Chinese companies/government pays the same amount of $$$ for him to do the same thing in China, I think Zhao will help kids learn badminton in China... The fact that he is doing this in Japan is probably because nobody treats him like a treasure back home, eh?
