Badminton Session

Badminton

Today my class were told that we were doing a badminton session today at 9 we all were so excited. Before we went out to go do our session we did some work then at 9 our teacher said pack up your work and line up outside.We lined up outside and our teacher took us to the hall to our badminton instructor Robbie.

When we went inside the hall we sat down in two straight lines. Before we started our lesson Robbie wanted our class to warm up so he told us that we are going to play a game of stuck in the mud for a warm up. After we played our warm up game he told us to sit down and he will tell us the basic rules about badminton. One of the rules were no hitting people with the racket. Two is no using the rackets as a sword. After we learnt the rules Robbie handed out everyone a racket each. When we got our racket he showed us the two basic ways of holding the racket one name is backhand and the other is forehand when we learnt how to hold our racket he gave us a shuttle each and then we all practised hitting the shuttle with both ways holding the rack as long as we can.

After we had our try hitting the shuttle we got in pairs and practised hitting the shuttle to each other. Then the whole class had a competition in our pairs hitting the shuttle to each other my pair lost and a pair of two girls won then we played another round a pair of boys won that round. After that [round we packed up our rackets and shuttles and headed to class.
