Exclusive summary about Knee Brace for Badminton by Daniel P. Sims

Do you enjoy the sport of badminton, but you are having knee problems? Do you ever want to help protect your knees while you play so you can stay as active as possible?

1.) Badminton Knee Problems

Unfortunately knee pain does not care about you and it can happen to anyone. By twisting your knee, or finding yourself doing repetitive movements, you may find that you all of the sudden have this knee ache that just will not really go away.

2.) Knee Braces for Support & Protection

Knee braces can be great in three main ways. Basically, when you get the right kind of support you will find that it can help reduce your knee pain, due to the meaningful support that the brace can provide! The issue that you will have to figure out for yourself is, whether you have a mild, moderate, or severe knee injury. You can subjectively rate your knee instability or pain on a scale 1-10.

3.) Knee Braces for Mild, Moderate, or Severe Knee Pain

Usually, for mild knee problems, you will only need an elastic kind of support. If you have more moderate to severe knee problems you will want to look at knee braces that include hinges.

Why Don't More Kids Play Badminton?

Exclusive summary about Knee Brace for Badminton by Greg King

I recall having several badminton sets as a kid. Have you ever seen a 'professional' badminton match?

All that high tech stuff aside for a moment - badminton is an excellent backyard game you should consider for your kids - if you haven't already. It's a low impact and deliberately easy game to play for beginners. Very few people can't pick up a badminton racquet and whack the shuttlecock across the net a time or two. Knees, wrists, and ankles are much better off for badminton players - trust me on that.

For kids this is good for another reason - changing the height of the net. All kidding aside, badminton with or without strict interpretation of badminton rules is one of those classic family fun games yours is virtually guaranteed to enjoy.

Badminton Bags

Exclusive summary about Badminton Bags by Ilse Hagen

To help you lug around your racket and other equipment, you can count on the every-reliable badminton bags. Badminton bags are commonly rounded on one end and then tapered on the other side, mimicking the shape of your racket.

If you wish to carry your badminton bag like a tote, choose a duffel-type one that also has the capability to house a lot of rackets that can be secured inside along with other things like extra clothes, your tennis shoes, and others. In choosing your badminton bag, make sure that you can fit inside all your essentials for playing. This includes your racket, shuttlecocks, and others like a water bottle, shoes, towel, etc. Make sure that you can also pick up and carry the bag easily. Cushioned handles can make lugging your bag easier and more comfortable.

Badminton Essentials - Choosing a Badminton Bag

A badminton bag is used in carrying badminton rackets as well as other equipment like nets and shuttlecocks.

Over-the shoulder: Over-the-shoulder badminton bags are lightweight and slim, with a long strap slung behind a shoulder. They can normally carry about one or two rackets and have compartments on the straps or outside of the bag for shuttlecocks.

Duffel: Duffel badminton bags, on the other hand, are large tote-like bags that come with compartments to house several rackets. Some duffel badminton bags are cylindrical or rectangular, much like any regular sports bag.

Make sure your rackets all fit comfortably into the compartments, with at least an inch of clearance from the walls of the bag to the tips of your rackets.

All England Badminton Championship

The All England Open Badminton Championships, or simply All England, is one of the worlds oldest and most prestigious badminton tournaments. Played annually, it developed after the success of world's first badminton tournament held in Guildford in 1898. The tournament was successfully organized in April 4, 1899, however only three categories (Men's Doubles, Women's Doubles and Mixed Doubles) were originally staged.

Both Men's and Women's Singles were added the following year. The first three tournaments were named "The Open English Championships". It was eventually considered (especially after the first Thomas Cup and Uber Cup series in 1949) the unofficial World Badminton Championships until 1977 when the International Badminton Federation (IBF) launched its official championships. Since 1984 the tournament has been exclusively sponsored by Yonex.

The tournaments were halted twice: during World War I from 1915 to 1919 and World War II from 1940 to 1946.

Most successful badminton player in the All England Open Badminton Championships is George Alan Thomas to win 21 times.
