Injury Prevention is a MUST!


Overall conditioning is essential to the badminton player to help reduce injuries on the court.
  • Playing on well manicured outdoor courts or indoor courts with well maintained surfaces will reduce lower extremity injuries.
  • Strong muscles, especially in the lower extremities, will prevent many injuries caused by the constant change in direction and explosive movements.
  • Good endurance will help delay the onset of fatigue, which contributes to a high percentage of sports injuries.
  • Quality equipment and body mechanics training will help prevent chronic injuries that develop due to misalignment issues.
  • Proper warm-up and a good flexibility program will reduce injuries from tight and inflexible muscles.
