Analysis of Badminton Shots


Use the cropped videos and the bullet points that you researched yesterday to help analyse your own performance:

The Overhead Clear:

  1. -          Start with a wide sideways stance (non racket shoulder towards net) put racket up with L shaped arm (non racket arm raised for balance)
  2. -          Racket head placed behind back and put weight on racket (rear) leg
  3. -          Racket arm straightens, forearm rotates to contact shuttle above shoulder
  4. -          Racket arm follows through, racket leg transfers from rear to front body position



The Smash:

  1. -          Raise your racket arm and non-racket arm
  2. -          Take the shuttle at the highest point possible
  3. -          Hit the shuttle with a full arm swing
  4. -          Follow through with your swing



The Drop Shot:

  1. ·         Bring elbow upwards and forwards and extend the arm when reaching for the shuttle
  2. ·         As you hit the shuttle turn shoulders and body back into court
  3. ·         Elbow should be low and racket should be pointing in an upwards direction
  4. ·         Preparation is the same as the overhead clear except you must slow down the racket head on impact

The Flick Serve:

  1. ·         Stand facing the net with right foot in front of your left
  2. ·         Hold the badminton racket with a relaxed basic grip
  3. ·         Hold the shuttlecock by the tip of the 'feathers'
  4. ·         When hitting the shuttle turn your body and bring the badminton racket forwards with your elbow held in close to your side

3 Health & Safety Procedures at the John Warner Sports Centre




Now that you have notes from Tanya's talk about the procedures they use at the John warner Sports Centre, you should write these up in as much detail as possible.



You should pay particular attention to how the procedures are reviewed and assessed in order to reach the merit/distinction levels.

Normal Operating Procedures (NOP)
Emergency Operating Procedures (EOP)
