The Badminton Bible is a collection of badminton articles, written by a professional badminton coach. Read the articles to help improve your game.
First translation of the Badminton Bible
Bosse Bergenholtz has translated three articles into Swedish.
I’m delighted by Bosse’s work, and I hope this will be the first of many translations. If you are fluent in a foreign language and would like to help out, please contact me. I currently have translators for the following languages:
- Swedish
- German
- Bulgarian
Latest article: badminton singles tactics
This singles tactics guide is extremely detailed. It covers the basic ideas, but also goes on to examine the tactical nuances of each shot and situation.
To complement this article, I’ve added more information to the singles serving tactics page in my serving guide.
Other articles
Badminton footwork
Good footwork is essential to success in badminton. This footwork guide teaches you the purpose of badminton footwork, its elements, and patterns of movement about the court.
Doubles tactics
The doubles tactics article will teach you how to choose the right shots in doubles, and how to cover the court well as a pair.
Badminton serving guide
The badminton serving guide teaches you the technique for every serve in badminton, and offers tactical advice so that you can choose the most effective serve for the situation.
Badminton grips guide
The badminton grips guide will teach you how to hold the racket. Understanding grips is essential: a bad grip can cripple your badminton skills.
This guide supersedes the popular Badminton Central grips guide, which I wrote in 2004. The new guide is more accurate, much more detailed, and will correct any misapprehensions about grips.
The future
I intend to write a full range of badminton articles, so that the Badminton Bible will become a comprehensive learning resource for badminton.
