BADMINTON TRAINING BY ST BADMINTON ACADEMY

Home


At ST Badminton Academy, we provide our students with expert badminton coaching
in every lesson. Our experienced badminton coach adheres strictly to the
international training standards, ensuring the highest quality training for all
our students.



Welcome to the family of


ST BADMINTON ACADEMY SINGAPORE

Since 2007, ST Badminton Academy has been offering professional badminton
training in Singapore. Our classes primarily take place in the western regions,
including Jurong, Bukit Panjang, and Choa Chu Kang.

Our badminton coach focuses on establishing a strong foundation and developing
essential skills for kids seeking to play badminton professionally. We believe
that a solid basic foundation is essential for success in badminton, and our
approach has led to several students being selected for the Singapore National
Team and Singapore Sports School.

To ensure each child receives undivided attention and the best possible
coaching, we limit our academy’s yearly enrollment to a maximum of 20 students.
Our aim is to help students establish a perfect basic foundation to build on
their skills and foster their growth.


IMPORTANT FOUNDATION

Footwork Foundation

Footwork foundation in badminton is an important part to sustain the level of
consistency, the key to success.

Skill Sets Foundation

Skills set training in badminton for kids, going by proper way of coaching can
help the kids reduce tons of bad habits.

Upper Body Foundation

The upper body skill is part of the foundation technique for every player before
they start picking up all the skills.


OUR INTENTION IN FOUNDATION



A solid foundation is important for kids and adults alike in badminton. Even a
slight mistake in learning basic techniques can cause the shuttlecock to be hit
in an unnatural, unappealing manner. The body appears stiffer, power generation
becomes difficult, and players may even experience injuries due to improper
form. Therefore, it is important to learn and practice the proper fundamentals
in order to hit the shuttlecock effectively, avoid injury, and achieve a more
graceful and aesthetically pleasing play style.




BE SMART PARENTS IN 2023



Our badminton academy is nearing the full slot for the year 2023, and we would
like to extend our best wishes to parents in their search for the right
badminton coach for their children. As a parent, we understand that it is
challenging to make the best decisions for our children. As badminton has gained
popularity in Singapore, the number of coaches has increased significantly,
causing confusion for those seeking high-quality training versus subpar options.
We encourage parents to be discerning and take advantage of the Smart Parents
Test, a resource that can guide them in making informed decisions about choosing
the right badminton coach for their children.

Knowledge Test



WHY ONLY TEACH PROFESSIONAL BADMINTON TRAINING

We understand that many parents struggle to determine whether their child is
receiving quality badminton training, and this can result in bad habits and
future issues for their children. The large number of badminton coaches in
Singapore can make it difficult for parents to choose a suitable option, and
some coaches may even use paid advertising to attract students, making the
decision-making process even more challenging.

At ST Badminton Academy, we take our responsibility seriously and focus on
delivering only professional badminton training to our students. Our goal is to
produce batches of high-quality students, and we hope that our success will
inspire other coaches to prioritize excellence in their programs as well.

WHY IS OUR YEARLY INTAKE LIMIT TO 20 STUDENTS

We have made attempts in the past to increase class sizes, accepting as many as
30, 40, or even 50 students for badminton training. Despite our efforts to
implement a software system and hire assistant coaches to improve class
organization and structure, individual progress and improvement for each student
were minimal and slow.

The only way to make improvements without proper tracking is to teach randomly,
allowing the students to work up a sweat and leave it at that. However, such an
approach compromises the quality of our coaching and risks spoiling a child’s
interest in badminton. Our coaching approach is focused on long-term goals and
nurturing the passion of our students.

We limit our yearly enrollment to 20 students who are genuinely interested in
badminton, and we plan to introduce casual badminton training for kids who want
to explore their interest in the sport, but not until 2023 or later. We refuse
to compromise our coaching standards for the sake of accommodating more
students, as this would devalue the quality of the training classes we provide.


WHO WILL BE TEACHING OUR STUDENTS IN TRAINING

Our experienced badminton coach, Mr. Eric Chuar, is personally responsible for
conducting each badminton lesson from start to finish. It is important to have a
coach with significant experience to monitor and guide students during skills
training. Otherwise, students may develop poor habits that are detrimental to
their progress and future success on the court.

If a student has developed bad habits, it can be challenging for our badminton
coach to correct them, wasting precious time in the process. In such cases, the
student’s interest in the sport may decline, and their future prospects may
suffer. As a responsible parent, it is essential to provide your child with the
best possible foundation and learning experience from the outset.

We have encountered similar issues in the past with parents seeking casual
badminton classes. Our advice is to choose professional badminton coaching for
your child to ensure that they receive proper guidance and learn the right
techniques early on in their badminton journey. It is important to get things
right from the beginning and allow our young students to learn everything
correctly in one go.

WHAT IS SO CALL BAD HABIT IN BADMINTON COACHING

It is important to learn proper badminton techniques to avoid developing
unappealing and unnatural skill patterns that may impair power generation on the
court. When students learn bad habits in badminton lesson, their confidence may
be affected, and their interest in the sport may wane. Learning from coaches who
repeatedly point out flaws in their techniques may be disheartening and even
lead to students giving up.

To prevent these issues, we take extra care in ensuring that our students learn
every skill with precision and avoid developing bad habits that may hinder their
progress during our kids’ badminton lesson. Balancing a student’s interest and
learning is important, as a lack of balance can hinder their growth, even if the
lesson itself is of good quality. It is possible to change bad habits in
students aged between 5 and 15, but it becomes slightly more difficult as they
grow older, even with private badminton lesson. Therefore, we strongly advise
our students to learn the right foundation at the youngest age possible to avoid
these issues.


WHY NO ASSISTANT BADMINTON COACH IN OUR BADMINTON TRAINING

We have found that assistant badminton coaches can help improve students’ skills
to some extent, but the progress made is not as significant as when our
experienced badminton coach personally conducts the badminton lesson. Unless we
can find someone with a similar passion and commitment to teaching badminton to
children, we prefer to maintain our current approach.

We do not profess to be the best badminton academy in Singapore, and we do not
rely exclusively on assistant coaches to conduct our classes, particularly those
intended for children. We place a premium on ensuring that our students graduate
from ST Badminton Academy with a solid foundation and skill set, and deep
knowledge of the sport. We believe that having a strong foundation in badminton
is more important than anything else, and we are committed to delivering the
best possible badminton training to our students.

EXPERIENCES IN TEACHING KIDS BADMINTON LESSONS

Having an experienced coach who specializes in teaching foundation skills for
kids in badminton lessons can help your children improve at a faster pace and
ensure that they learn the right techniques from the outset. Coaching children
in badminton is not as simple as just teaching surface-level skills like racket
swinging or footwork in badminton classes. Many more techniques need to be
taught, particularly to kids, which require a great deal of experience and
expertise.

Some coaches offer badminton classes for kids just to earn money, taking
advantage of the fact that children and parents may have limited knowledge of
badminton. Many badminton academies claim to have a vision of helping everyone
improve, but this can often be nothing more than a marketing label that results
in students being spoiled.

However, at our badminton academy, our coach understands the importance of
building a solid foundation and the principles of karma. We focus solely on
badminton classes for kids and will not engage in any activities solely for
financial gain that could mislead students who are keen to improve. If we are
not capable of teaching something, we will be upfront with parents and let them
know, to ensure that we do not waste their children’s time.


COMMON TYPES OF BADMINTON COACH IN SINGAPORE

There are several types of badminton coaches in Singapore that parents can
choose from, and not all of them are necessarily bad. However, parents must
exercise close monitoring of their children’s progress under any coach they
choose. For instance, some badminton academies may advertise a coach’s
reputation as a former national player with 20 years of experience, but upon
joining the academy, the child may not receive the best badminton knowledge from
that coach, but instead, from an assistant coach.

This practice is not uncommon in Singapore, and parents must be vigilant in
monitoring their children’s progress, as the training information may not be
correctly conveyed. Losing training fees is a minor issue for parents, but the
slow progress caused by inadequate training methods can significantly affect a
child’s interest in badminton.

It’s important for parents to avoid basing their decisions solely on a badminton
academy’s player quality, as it doesn’t necessarily reflect the coaching
quality. Instead, parents should closely monitor their child’s progress and take
appropriate action if needed to ensure their child’s development is not
hindered.


EXPERIENCES BADMINTON COACH FOR BEGINNER

Hiring an experienced badminton coach for beginners who only relies on their
reputation, medals, or accolades may not be enough. If they do not put forth
effort into teaching the kids, or pass them off to an assistant coach, the
student’s progress may be hindered. For us, experience in coaching does not
solely depend on how many medals a coach has won, but on how fast the coach can
show results and improve each student’s skills consistently.

This is particularly important in beginner badminton classes, where quick
improvements indicate the coach’s experience in teaching beginners. Some coaches
may have private badminton training classes with just two students but show no
improvement each week, as they do not plan or think about how to help the
students improve. If a coach does not plan or put forth effort for their
students, the students will not improve, even if their parents pay for private
training. Therefore, a coach’s experience and effort are vital for students to
improve effectively.


ONLY FOCUSING ON STRUCTURED BADMINTON CLASSES

Since 2007, ST Badminton Academy has taken a student-focused approach to
training, paying close attention to their individual weaknesses, such as their
skill sets, and providing tailored guidance. This dedication to personalized
coaching has led to many of our students excelling in both local and
international tournaments, with some even being selected for the Singapore
Sports School and National Team.

Our renowned Badminton Coach, Mr. Eric Chuar, has played a significant role in
guiding our students to success. Our coaches are certified and have completed
First Aid training, ensuring a safe and professional learning environment. While
we prioritize the quality of our training over the number of students, we warmly
welcome those who are truly passionate and committed to the sport.
