Spot the MARK 4 players on one side of the net. 2 in the forecourt & 2 in the rearcourt. Feeder on the other side Coach to hold 10 shuttles and feed to players. Players can hit shuttle to anywhere. If it comes back to the coach then return back, let it hit the floor if it’s away from you. (The focus of the drill is up to you.) Before you start, mark one of the shuttles with a 1cm circle with a pen on the tip of the cork. During the drill the player that’s fed the MARK must hit it then run to the coaches side to collect as many shuttles from the floor as possible including the MARK if its on the floor, put them into the coaches hand, then return back to a space on the other side of the net with the other players The player collecting shuttles has now left a space for the other three players to cover Sometimes as the feeder you may be able to return the MARK thus having two players collecting shuttles or even three. Leaving huge spaces for the remaining player(s) to cover. Safety issues. Please ensure that the collectors are made aware that the drill is continuous and should put the shuttles in your hand on the safe side away from your racquet swing. Make them aware that they should not collect shuttles that are anywhere near your racquet swing.
Don't rely on tricks, rules, patterns. You need to learn to analyze the game, your players, and find a way to solve problems. Coaching is not like baking a cake, where you follow this same pattern, and you will get a frosted chocolate cake. If you want your players respect, truly learn the game of badminton and help them develop. Players can develop three ways. Physically, Technically, and Mentally. Develop all of your understandings on these sets and share your knowledge with your students. Teenagers respect you when you really know your stuff. They know when they are being lied to. IF you want to be the master.... become one. No offense, but you can't learn to be a coach from reading a website. It takes knowledge, experience, and leadership. Sometimes it is a hard process for coaches. First, you need to analyze different techniques from the different parts of the court. That way you can see where your players are having problems and then you can design a drill that will fit that individual player's problem. That way you can customize your training for each player and make them the best that they can be. When the student is ready, the master will appear. Toddster Fortune cookie master
