I have done this once too and it is real but they suck

The difference between other countries and China regarding Badminton is that most players have lives outside of Badminton... They do tend to go out, take brakes, and enjoy other things. They do not play nonstop. That's coming from a professional Romanian Player.

@OHMAHGAWDz Man, you're so right. However the "good" players in Canada are probably "average" players in strong badminton countries like China and Indonesia.
-
@OHMAHGAWDz meh, good point, and im glad you agree the wrong word was used.

@snootmuffin this is the last comment I'm making about this, as my comment has been taken out of context. I meant that most (actually, all) Canadian players don't compare to "famous" players, and as a Canadian, I am better than the guys in this video. Handicap isn't the best word, but it still applies. Canadian players are limited by an impediment when it comes to badminton: a lack of high-level clubs/training centers. The same goes for hockey players in places with less support for hockey.
-
@OHMAHGAWDz That would be like saying if your from a Badminton strong nation you have a handicap in hockey, but on average, fewer are devoted to hockey than we. So that is not a handicap, but a choice to not choose hockey over badminton, just like many Canadians choose hockey over badminton.
-
@OHMAHGAWDz... No, I still don't see how the work 'handicap' suits this... Having a handicap: Limited by an impediment of some kind
Impediment: something immaterial that interferes with or delays action or progress or any structure that makes progress difficult. So what about being Canadian makes it harder to play badminton? The stronger Badminton nations are stronger only because of their larger population and/or practice time.
-
@snootmuffin Actually, I'm a provincial level player, and will be competing in the national junior championships in May. Compared to stronger badminton nations (China, Indonesia, Malaysia, Denmark, Korea, etc), even the best players in Canada are not all that good...so I think my remark about Canadian badminton is justified. Don't use the United States as a benchmark either, because they also don't have many good players (especially if you're referring to their "school kids").
That´s Badminton, not Speedminton!

That is not even Badminton. This is quite boring.
