    Is there an off season in the badminton world? There are almost more than 3 international events every month that IBF has recongized. Now is there an off season where players train heavily or mentally take a break from the sport?

    I know the off season for high school players is in the summer time

    it seems like a continous and all-season sport.

    it very well is...but consider that in all other sports, athletes still train or train HARDER during the off-season, so that they can be better when the season starts...badminton is just a sport where it's non-stop competition, which is why you choose how many tournaments you go to during a year, and when to peak...i believe tennis's season is like that too...but the more you train, the better you get, i suppose...

    How well you perform during the season is a testimony to how hard you train during the off season. Badminton, like all sports, is a never ending climb. The people around you will keep getting better, faster and stronger. You have to keep training and practicing not only to keep up with them but to improve your own performance as well.
