During the beginning of Badminton pre-season, I was hoping that by joining, I would be able to get more exercise in my daily routine. Badminton is something I enjoyed playing back in Jakarta and although it certainly is a tiring sport, it is still something that is doable for me (LO 2). Joining badminton, I was really glad that I get to play this sport with my friends as it helped me gain confidence and participate more. Although I am not aiming to participate competitively, I thought that it would be nice way to spend some of my free time. Also, as I have been mostly playing informally, I am really hoping on learning to play badminton formally to increase my understanding of this sport that I used to play so often during my childhood. I hope that through joining badminton pre-season, I will be able to not only learn more about the proper techniques in badminton but able to lead a healthier lifestyle with my friends.
