I need major help here, so when it comes to playing in tournaments... for whatever reason I play my worst badminton.
During normal club nights or even practise sessions with friends I usually play my best badminton and every shot seems to play out, once I play the same opponents in a competition mode suddenly my nerves go up and I regularly start hitting the shuttle long, arrive at the shuttle late therefore not allowing myself to place my shots, footwork not great and a lot of people say I look stiff. HELP as this has been going on for a while now and people always say I’m a very good player but for some reason when it gets to tournament play I tend not to play my best badminton and it’s really affecting my confidence.
