Frequently asked questions about the course

I have already played badminton regularly at a sports center or in a group without instruction. Is the course suitable for me? Ich habe schon regelmäßig Badminton im Fitness-Center oder in einer Gruppe ohne Anleitung gespielt. Ist der Kurs für mich geeignet?

Definitely yes! If you have never trained under the professional guidance of a badminton coach, our Kickstarter course is just right for you. Our coaches will show you the correct badminton techniques, thus preventing the risk of injury that always exists when you “just swing” the racket regularly.

The course is aimed at anyone aged 18 and over – women and men, with no upper age limit. Minors are unfortunately not allowed to participate. Interested children and teenagers with no previous badminton experience are welcome to attend a trial training session in our age-appropriate groups at any time, subject to prior registration.

Yes, you can only participate in our Kickstarter course after registering in advance and paying the course fees. The number of participants is limited.
The course is held in German, therefore basic knowledge of German is recommended so that you can follow our coaches’ instructions. In any case, a knowledge of English is necessary, so that a basic communication is possible.

If necessary, you can borrow a badminton racket from us for the duration of the course, but you can of course also use your own racket. Shuttlecocks are provided. You should also bring a drink and a towel. If you wish, you can shower on site after training.
