Coaching and Coaches

• Herts coaches

Badminton coaching in Herts is actively promoted.   The formal badminton courses can divided into those for players, often called 'Personal Performance' courses (junior and adult), and courses for those who wish to coach.

Juniors above improver level may receive coaching through the structure of the Herts Schools Badminton Association.  

Special courses can be arranged for groups, clubs and for teachers.  The photo on the right shows John Smith, U14 Manager and coach, showing teachers some of the basic elements of coaching juniors in schools.

The coaches below are grade Instructor and higher. They are listed by location in alphabetical order. There are many other coaches qualified at for example Leader level. For any other enquiries, please contact Herts Coaching Co-ordinator, David Bartlett (01438 715374), Dave_Bartlett@msn.Com .
