Junior Club Pathway Sessions Lively sessions involving 45 minutes to 1 hour of structured but relaxed "club" coaching followed by the same amount of time again playing supervised social games. Mainly aimed at children attending secondary schools and college whose aspirations lay in getting better gradually but moreso, simply enjoying playing social games. Junior Club sessions cater for all abilities from absolute beginner to improvers. More serious players who wish to improve their game quicker and are eager to put the work in to attain their goals will be welcomed onto the Development Pathway to train with like-minded junior players twice or more a week.

These sessions take place throughout the year, not just in term time unless our venues are unable to accommodate us on election/exam dates or public holidays, and are payable on a weekly book-in or £27.50 monthly fee.

Development Pathway Sessions The Futures and Developing sessions are led by our Head Coach together with other Level 2 and 3 guest coaches from time to time and supported by other members of the coaching team, providing an excellent coach-to-player ratio. The Pathway is designed to promote rapid player development and is perfect for aspiring young players who wish to train at least twice a week to improve their skills. The sessions involve a combination of related movement and technical skills over the course of a coaching block, followed by the opportunity to apply and explore these skills in a tactical context. Physical fitness including exercises for agility, mobility and stability specifically required for badminton is also addressed within the sessions. The Futures sessions are targeted at new or younger players, perhaps as they transition from the Foundation sessions or primary-school participation. Futures sessions are designed to build on player potential, developing the basic movement and hitting skills required to progress within the game, as well as begin to develop an understanding of the traits required to achieve success. These sessions include a high percentage of predictable feeds and practices to refine the key skills, as well as plenty of fun and engaging individual and team games and activities. The Developing sessions are appropriate for slightly older players who have established a sound basis of technical and movement skills. Developing sessions are designed to expand and apply the range of movement and hitting skills established in the Futures sessions and also to consolidate this learning in more challenging activities so players can execute these skills in less predictable situations. Developing sessions also seek to improve tactical awareness with game-like situations and to further advance player understanding on how to train to succeed. Although these sessions are run on an invitation-only basis, it is a simple matter of contacting us to arrange a free trial period where an aspiring player can join in the activities and together we can determine whether the pathway is suitable based on technical ability and hunger to train.
