Link to Badminton

Students at the Middle Childhood and Early Adolescence phase of development should be
directed to setting up an attack by creating space on the opposite side of the net and on
defending space on their own side of the net. Creating and defending space are two tactical
problems fundamental to the game of badminton.

Participating in DC1/DC2 and through appropriate teacher questions students will become
familiar with the level of strategic and tactical complexity required for divided court games.
Experience will inform the teacher when the skills of the overhead clear and drop shot can be
introduced to the game of Badminton.
