Chapter 5 CCA & CAS
The Badminton CAS team
Badminton
The Badminton CAS is a modular and recreational activity CAS that aims to introduce badminton to beginners. The CAS not only teaches basic skills and techniques to its members, it also provides a platform for members to develop teamwork, perseverance and sportsmanship.
The girls at play
At each training session, every badminton member is able to learn the essential skills of the sport under the guidance of the coach. These skills include footwork, which teaches the members to move efficiently and strategically around the court, as well as the backhand and forehand serves, lobbing and lifting. Through consistent practice, members also cultivate perseverance and patience in mastering difficult shots, while also strengthening communication and cooperation that underpin effective doubles partnerships and a culture of constructive peer coaching.
Rooted in sportsmanship and respect, members also learn to compete with fairness, celebrate each other’ s successes and approach challenges with humility, ensuring the CAS remains a welcoming and supportive community for all.
