footwork

Hi all, would love to get your feedback on the biggest gaps in my current 4 corners footwork. I have a rough idea of where I can improve but want to see where experts think I can improve the most. Tips on how I can practice or resources to review would be appreciated. The video below is me...

Hi All, Can you critic on my play and things I should focus to improve ? I am not able to analyse the video and understand the things I need to improve... Quick background playing badminton for almost a year now mainly doubles... Playing singles infrequently for a month now . Please help I am...

Hello everyone. I am looking for some feedback and advice on my footwork. Unfortunately, I was not able to access a badminton court because of the pandemic as we all know and I also didn't have a feeder to feed me shuttles so I decided to do shadow footwork in my backyard. I do not have a coach...

I originally played and posted a singes video on August 30th, 2019 to here and Reddit in hopes of helping improve my singles game. I am now posting an updated game play showing my *I hope* improvement between August 30th and now early December in both disciplines. I welcome any advice! I have...

Randomly stumbled on this video of an American player who visited China and had a few coaching sessions. He learnt a footwork technique described by his coach as the Li Mao (the coach) step. Not a big deal, it's just a small jump to include during footwork when coming from the rearcourt to the...

Hi there, when searching for some exercises on YouTube, that would have been usefull when replying to some threads, I often was disappointed, that I didn't find what I was looking for or that I only found something not badminton specific at best, that could have been adopted for badminton. So...

I have been playing for years, with no training, and about 4 years ago, I finally started playing with good players from Asia. I live in the USA. After becoming friends with them, some of the good players corrected a lot of my mistakes and helped me train and fix some of them. But try as I...

Does anyone have ideas for training/drills that can be done to minimise over-commiting to shots due to anticipating incorrectly? It seems training footwork patterns don't help this aspect much - just means I move the wrong way more efficiently before having to turn back :P Ideally able to be...

hello, i was wondering if its possible to practice better footwork in the garden by lining up a half court with 4-6 shuttles with 5 meters from side to side and 6 meters from back line to end. and then practice the footwork patterns, without hitting a shuttle but just hitting the air. you think...

should I use steps of chase more often? I was taught to play with steps more because it is faster, but the pros don’t often use steps in their games. What’s the better choice and when to use either?

Hello, i am a little confused. I was taught to hit and step through, with my non racket leg not moving. However, I watched some coaching videos, and it seems they teach a scissor kick technique where you jump and your feet switch. It the step through used in the mid court or backcourt, should I...

hey all, one time while playing, a friend of mine commented how my footwork is very bouncy and that i should stay on the ground more. In my opinion, i feel like i react faster and move faster when im “bouncy”, rather than being stable on the floor, what do you guys think?

I've had one or two moments where I felt that my scissor jump landing was off, especially when coming down higher than usual. Sometimes it would twinge, other times there would be soft but lingering pain. Is there supposed to be a proper way, e.g., do the legs have to be in a certain angle and...

Someone that is kind enough too pin point out what i need to improve? (I am the guy with black hair and blue shirt)

Hey guys, i was playing a match with someone and he is really good at placing the shuttle and he is quick on his feet. I cant seem to catch up with the pace he is playing and i cant do a good clear to slow it down due to the pressure. Before i can go back to base position he already placed the...

Hello, I am quite fresh to tournament badminton and I am trying to bring my game to the next level. Therefore I study different literature. It can be difficult to find the correct info, because different people say different things. Consequently I still have trouble understanding the split step...

Unfortunately I wasn't able to visit training very often recently (personal problems, did my Abitur etc.). Yesterday I was finally able to play again, but naturally my performance wasn't really good. Now summer holidays have started here in germany, so our coach will be on vacation for the next...
