  • Newsletter August 2019 Liebe Badminton Freunde Und Unterstützer
    Newsletter August 2019 Liebe Badminton Freunde und Unterstützer Die TOTAL BWF Badminton Weltmeisterschaft 2019, war das Highlight im August. Leider konnte ich noch nicht an einer Badminton WM teilnehmen, da mir leider noch die nötigen Qualifikations-Punkte dazu fehlen. Eines meiner Ziele ist natürlich, dass ich es schaffen werde in der nahen Zukunft an einer Badminton WM teilnehmen zu können. Ich hatte aber trotzdem ein super WM feeling... :-) Während der WM in Basel war ich als Laision Officer tätig. Ich wurde für die Thai und Ukrainische National-Mannschaft eingeteilt. Meine Aufgaben bestanden darin, die National-Team's bei organisatorischen, administrative Fragen und gelegentliche Interview zu helfen und wenn nötig bei Sprachlichen Übersetztungen zu helfen. Es hat mir Riesen-Spass gemacht und ich habe wieder sehr viel dazu gelernt. Das erste Mal hatte ich die Gelegenheit, Para Athleten näher kennenzulernen, was für eine Bereicherung. Die gute Stimmung unter den Athleten, ihren sportlichen Einsatz und die Spanneden Spiele, hat mich echt beeindruckt. Mit der Thai Para National-Mannschaft, hatte ich eine super Zeit verbracht und viele neue Freunde kennengelernt. Wir waren am Abend, nach den Spielen, an die Rhein- Promenade und einige haben sogar den Sprung ins kalte Nass gewagt. Wir hatten es wirklich lustig zusammen. Ein Riesenkompliment an die Organisatoren das Badminton WM in Basel, was für eine gute idee die WM zusammen aufzuführen. Eine gelungene WM auf die wir stolz sein können. Beim Klick auf den grünen Button (Mehr Fotos) weiter unten, kommt ihr auf meine Web-Seite wo ich noch mehr Fotos von der WM in Basel habe. Beim meinem ersten Turnier der Saison, dem BWF international in Belarus, bin ich leider schon in der 2.
