Have you ever played badminton before? I have! In week 5 of school our maths class had badminton lessons in the hall. We were learning how to do backhand serves with Coach Danny.
For warm up we played stuck in the mud. We had 2 taggers that had to tag us. If we got tagged then to get free someone had to give us a double high five. Far out it was hard work. Coach Danny told us to get a partner, mine was Toma.
“Hold the racket like you are shaking hands” said coach Danny. We practiced hitting the shuttlecock backwards and forwards to each other. It was frustrating because we kept hitting it over each other and not far enough for our partners to hit it back.
The part I enjoyed the most was doing our warm up. I liked this because it was funny how the taggers had to chase us and the looked really tired. I would like to do the lessons again and this time pay more attention to what the coaches say.
Well done writing about your badminton training Tevita. I like how you started with a hook.
