    In level 1 to 3 tournaments women must wear skirts or dresses

    .
    Sports clothing manufacturers should be busy designing and making active sportswear already.

    It says "In Level 1 to 3 tournaments women must wear skirts or dresses".

    I am sure many lower levels players will soon dress up like the top players too.

    Actually, rules are rules; although some would like to break them

    Actually rules are rules, although some (including myself) would like to break them.

    I remember there was once I participated in a tournament wearing long white pants for my matches (like the great Wong Peng Soon did). At that time, everyone must wear white. The tournament organisers said that if I didn't wear white shorts, they won't let me play my matches. :eek::eek::eek:

    Some tournament (lower ones) are more lenient; When I told the organisers that I was feeling cold and I would like to play with my track suit on, they allowed me. But my track suit must be all white (which I did have). :):):)

    Mandatory skirts for WOMEN?

    What you guys think? Will it make the game more interesting to watch especially WD? let's discuss

    http://www.badzine.net/news/poll-mandatory-skirts-for-women/12789/

    The Badminton World Federation (BWF) Council will soon be requiring all female players to wear skirts or dresses in any competition at Grand Prix level or above.

    I dont know why they even bother to do that, but i guess it is to make the sport more "attractive".
