  • History of Badminton
    Facts and Records History of Badminton In 1873, the Duke of Beaufort held a lawn party at his country house in the village of Badminton, Gloucestershire. A game of Poona was played on that day and became popular among British society’s elite. The new party sport became known as “the Badminton game”. In 1877, the Bath Badminton Club was formed and developed the first official set of rules. The Badminton Association was formed at a meeting in Southsea on 13th September 1893. It was the first National Association in the world and framed the rules for the Association and for the game. The popularity of the sport increased rapidly with 300 clubs being introduced by the 1920’s. Rising to 9,000 shortly after World War Π. The International Badminton Federation (IBF) was formed in 1934 with nine founding members: England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Denmark, Holland, Canada, New Zealand and France and as a consequence the Badminton Association became the Badminton Association of England. From nine founding members, the IBF, now called the Badminton World Federation (BWF), has over 160 member countries. The future of Badminton looks bright. Badminton was officially granted Olympic status in the 1992 Barcelona Games. Indonesia was the dominant force in that first Olympic tournament, winning two golds, a silver and a bronze; the country’s first Olympic medals in its history. More than 1.1 billion people watched the 1992 Olympic Badminton competition on television. Eight years later, and more than a century after introducing Badminton to the world, Britain claimed their first medal in the Olympics when Simon Archer and Jo Goode achieved Mixed Doubles Bronze in Sydney.

  • The Rio Review the Official Report Into Ireland's Campaign for the Rio 2016 Olympic and Paralympic Games
    SPÓRT ÉIREANN SPORT IRELAND The Rio Review The official report into Ireland's campaign for the Rio 2016 Olympic and Paralympic Games RIO 2016 REVIEW Foreword The Olympic and Paralympic review process is an essential component of the Irish high performance system. The implementation of the recommendations of the quadrennial reviews has been a driver of Irish high performance programmes for individual sports and the system as a whole. The Rio Review process has been comprehensive and robust. The critical feature of this Review is that the National Governing Bodies (NGBs) took a greater level of control in debriefing their own experiences. This Review reflects the views of all the key players within the high performance system. Endorsed by Sport Ireland, it is a mandate for the NGBs to fully implement the recommendations that will improve the high performance system in Ireland. There were outstanding performances in Rio at both the Olympic and Paralympic Games. The Olympic roll of honour received a new addition in Rowing, with Sailing repeating its podium success achieved in Moscow 1980, demonstrating Ireland's ability to be competitive in multiple disciplines. Team Ireland has built on the success of Beijing and London, and notwithstanding problems that arose, Rio was a clear demonstration that Ireland can compete at the very highest levels of international sport. Sport Ireland is committed to the ongoing development of the Sport Ireland Institute and adding to the extensive facilities on the Sport Ireland National Sports Campus. These are real commitments to high performance sport in Ireland that will make a significant difference to Irish athletes who aspire to compete at the top level.

  • TID Badminton .Pdf
    The University of Stirling Title of Thesis: A comparison between Talent Identification and Development (TID) for badminton in China and the UK Name: Rita Yuan Gao Supervisor: Leigh Robinson Master of Philosophy Faculty of Health Sciences and Sport 2017 Abstract Badminton England created the first world badminton championship in 1898, known as the All England Badminton Championship. Since 1992 badminton has been an Olympic sport consisting of five disciplines, with fifteen badminton medals offered at each Olympic Games. Great Britain (GB) badminton won two Olympic medals between 2000 and 2008. China Badminton won 38 Olympic medals between 1992 and 2012. This leads to a number of questions, not least of which is to understand the success of China Badminton when compared with GB badminton, and the reasons behind that success. The research set out below is a study into badminton talent identification and development (TID) in China and the United Kingdom (UK). The study compares and contrasts the relative success of the systems used in China and the UK, discussing the similarities and differences in both country’s badminton TID programmes. This research followed a mixed methodology using three different types of research. These included documentary analysis of both countries’ sports systems and badminton programmes from an existing wide range of documentation. A total of forty Chinese and British national badminton players participated in the questionnaire survey. Eight national coaches from both countries were chosen for semi-structured interviews. The results indicated significant differences in the application of TID in badminton in both countries: • The sport system’s impact on athlete’s development opportunities; • Differences in the identification of badminton talent progress; based on age and testing; • Differences in player development; training age, training hours and training years; • The age at which players specialise in badminton and the age at which they reach peak performance.
