    Hi,

    Just to let you know i took over the duties from my coach for today and led about 12 children on a 3 hour badminton lesson. I must admit, i really did enjoy it, but i have noticed something. Whatever children club you try to teach, there is ALWAYS that small minority that seem to mess about and ruin it or the others. This one kid kept hitting my legs with his racket (he is about 12) so i took him outside, hand a few harsh words.(I am the boss no1 messes with me! :)). Anyway it went well, i led the whole griup in the warm up, done drills and done some one to one coaching with them too, and it was great! It's amazing how much you REALLY do know about badminton :)

    Matt
