Lesson Proper

Suggested Badminton Drills

Here are some badminton drills that you can practice on to improve your game

Shadow Badminton
This is to practice the correct movement and technique without actually hitting a shuttle. Get
a partner to help direct you to the areas of the court, making sure that you cover the
backcourt, midcourt, and the frontcourt with both your forehand and backhand.

Commit fully during this practice as you would in any competition. Imagine that you are
playing against a world class player. It will definitely improve your movement on court and
fitness.
Wall Rally Drill
Take an old shuttle and hit it against the wall. Hit the shuttle with your forehand and
backhand, straight or diagonal. It can be used for practicing almost every stroke. It is a good
way to improve footwork, strengthen the arm and wrist muscles used in badminton.

The wall should be at least 20 feet high to accommodate clears. The practice will be more
effective if you can show the height of the net with a chalk line or a string, 5 feet above the
ground.

As the shuttle rebounds so fast from the wall, your wrist will naturally come into play. You
will learn how to switch grips at an instance as well. You will be amazed on your improved
reflexes the next time you step on court.

Hitting a shuttle against a wall is an effective practice at all levels of plays.

Multiple Shuttles - Overhead Strokes

The more shuttles you have, the better for this routine. The feeder plays the shuttles into
different areas of your backcourt. You will then use your forehand, backhand or around the
head to play the clears, drop shots or smashes. Return to your base position after each shot.

This badminton drill is meant to improve your speed and accuracy in executing overhead
strokes. You have to remember that merely reaching the shuttles is not enough. You have to
play quality shots to the other side.
Multiple shuttles - Net Play
Again, you will need a lot of shuttles for this routine. The feeder throws the shuttles to your
net area. You will then decide whether to play a net shot, a net kill or a net lift with your
forehand or backhand. Return to your base position after each shot.

This badminton drill is meant to improve your net play and your movement on court. The
quality of your return is important. Pay attention to it or this practice will not be effective.
