    There's quite a big percentage of voters that're interested, if you look at the top of the thread or page.

    Yes but lets hope all the 122 people buy it and have not put forward an opinion rather than an intent. If the book is put into production then the run would be quite small. I would assume around 250-500 so they would need to sell to recoup the costs of the run.

    Great!!

    Hi Again!

    It´s great to see how interested you guys are in our project.

    Therefore, I will translate the text from the back og the book for you so you have a clue about what to expect!

    The book presents relevant knowledge in all aspects of the badminton game as well as practice.The reader can expect a lot of concrete reday to use excercises as well as the opportunity to develop excercises and methods for training by yourself. The author shows his personal opinion about practice in general and how to pass badminton knowledge on to others.

    Whether you seek knowledge about warming up, footwork, technique, tactics, games or physical training this book gives you a good head start. Whether the training is performed by students, beginners, elite players, children or adults you´ll find inspiration and relevant information for you to use.

    The book will be an important tool for both teachers of sport, clubtrainers and players.


    Here is a couple of reviews by the danish press:

    Currently, there is not a more competent technique and tactic book on the market. From danish newspaper Politiken

    The badmintoncoaches get a sober and a long missed book on a high level.. It underlines the value of the book for an ambitious badmintoncoach. From the association of danish libraries

    All in all a good book filled with drills, which clubtrainers have missed for some time now. Well done Henrik!! From the officiel danish badminton magazine

    Hope you find this interesting and not too much publicity for the book!!

    Kind Regards

    Jonas

    After that 'prologue'/'epilogue' by JR, I'm excited and can't wait for the English version of the book. Will certainly buy one (or a few :rolleyes: )
