    Hi everyone

    I'm looking for a training partner to practice and an Intermediate group to play doubles with.

    Plastic shuttles are for LOSERS and they suck, i mainly play with feathered.

    Ideally as a partner you would like to do drills together, talk about technique, discuss strategy, share videos, not be a completely close minded etc.

    And as a doubles player, ideally you would:
    -Know doubles formation and strategy
    -Communicate with your partner and the group frequently
    -Be an extremely competitive player, but try not to be an ass about it
    -Please be nice, since i am nice - sometimes :D
    -Bring your enthusiasm, and energy and silliness.

    I've never done a proper coaching session so i do not know the best ways to do drills or play.

    My schedule is very flexible and i can arrange to meet you anytime of the day, any time of the week if i'm not already playing a match.

    I don't drive so i usually bus to wherever is closest. Yes shame on me that i don't drive

    The clubs I am closest to are:

    K.C Badminton Richmond Hill
    Lees Badminton
    Su Badminton
    C2 Badminton
    Everyday Badminton

    Farthest I will go is:

    E-badminton training Centre
    Markham Pan Am Centre

    I have a tub of used feathered birds. I'm guessing there are 150-200 birds in there and i can probably get way more if i asked around. I also like to hoard the tubes :)

    So you've already got a player willing to feed you shuttles.

    What the hell are you waiting for?

    Bring your equipment and a burning desire to improve.

    Lets play!

    Leave a post here, or message me!

    P.S Also posted on kijiji because i need more eyeballs to see this

    I do like your idea to learn and motivate to play as I am too but I live too far from you to even try.

    If this were Asia i think people would be more available. Not many people in Canada could decide to one day train for 4 hours without interrupting their work life. Unless you're retired, I'd rather not play with those people.

    If you're willing to come to Calgary, i'm willing to train 6 days a week with you. 5am-9am
    I need someone like you, because i need to start on my international badminton career. And move to asia once i'm good enough
