Each session can accommodate up to 30 players and takes the format of a group warm up led by Andy Allford which exercises the mind as well as the body and then 3 x 25 minute rotations of group work lead by each of the masterclass coaches on the above key components. Then finally a game of King of the court (Killer) is played against Nath and Gail to determine 2 people who get to play a game of mixed doubles. To round off each participant receives some goodies for attending the day with a special prize for the winner of the mixed doubles match!

What next?

If you are interested in hosting a badminton masterclass you simply need to provide 4 courts (although 3 will do!) and willing participants (90 for 3 sessions during the day). Please see our available date’s page to start the ball rolling. If your an individual player then you need to speak to your club coach or volunteer in organising a day!

The cost is £25 for juniors and £35 for adults and minimum numbers do apply for the sessions.
