Last week on Thursday morning room 22 had a Badminton session with the Auckland Badminton coach Lawreen in the school hall.
Lawreen our instructor taught us the proper way of hitting a shuttle cock with a racket.There were a few techniques for remembering like thumbs up then thumbs down.After learning this technique we were given a challenge to try and get as many shuttles into a bin that was five steps away from you.
We were given a few challenges but my favorite was hitting it back and forth with my partner.The challenge was to hit the shuttles 100 or more times non stop.My partner Henry and I only managed to hit the shuttle 30 times so we had failed.So we tried and tried but we did not improve and only hitting ten.
After that session I thought it was great because we learnt a new sport and new techniques.Badminton seamed like a cool and fun sport so I could not wait for our next session.
