Badminton Writing

I never knew what badminton was. Listening to Mr Marks say you kids have badminton after morning tea, I was shocked and worried that it would be a running game. After morning tea we had to line up and wait for Mr Marks to come. When Mr Marks came we went to the hall and sat down. The badminton coach called Lorene was telling us the rules about badminton.

First we had to get a racket and we had to take a shuttle. We had to hit the shuttle with the racket. I kept on dropping the shuttle. Next we had to get a partner and one person had to get the cone, and the other person has to have a racket and a shuttle. The first person hits the shuttle to us and we have to catch the shuttle with the cone. Then we swap around. There is another skill that we have to hit it two times and we have to hit it under our legs.

The the other time we went to badminton we had 3 small courts and 1 big court. We had 6 people in our group. That was Mya, Tashell, Lisa, Taamai, Doris and me. There are 4 people in front of the net. If they miss it, it is another persons turn. When it was my turn I had to keep my eye on shuttle in order to hit it. It was so much fun playing Badminton.
