On Saturday the 11 of August. Cowal Badminton Juniors Alan Mollins, Andrew Tyre and Ciaran Danks attended the Hurlford badminton coaching club coaching day held at Grange leisure center at the Grange Academy in Kilmarnock.
The event was run by Scot Sinclair and Billy Fulton from Hurlford badminton coaching club. They had also drafted in top coach Dan Travers from Badminton Scotland.
The day consisted of two hours of coaching in the morning. Starting with warm up exercises to get the blood flowing, then onto the basics from correct grip to court positioning. Following this was different routines working on many aspects around the courts. Then onto a few short games. After the lunch break there was a two hour yoga session. The first hour consisted of different poses and exercises. The second was much more relaxed and finished the day off nicely.
I would like to once again thank the sponsors of the juniors that have made this possible. Western Ferries and Scottish Salmon Company.
