"Although only a year since its release, the first instructional CD-ROM for badminton, Badminton Interactive, has been a mega success in developing badminton. As well as its use as resource material for instruction at technical courses, such as the 4th IBF World Academy at the US Olympic Training Centre in Colorado Springs, its main advantage has been to take a very high level of technical expertise to coaches and players world-wide. The key advantage that the CD-ROM format has to offer is its ability to mix speech, text, graphics, data-analysis and video, and make all of these media work to support each other in getting highly complex subject matter across to players and coaches in a way that is easy to understand. The problem of explaining correct foot-work patterns in a book, even with the help of photos and illustrations, is something we are all well aware of. Of course video is the answer. But what happens when we want to produce detailed lists of technical information on video? A book is the obvious answer. When we add the capability for recorded speech and special effects, such as training record analysis, we have a revolutionary sport education tool. The problem is that there are just not enough top-level experts to reach every player and coach who wants access to the latest advanced information. The CD-ROM goes a long way to finding an answer to this problem." Andrew Ryan " Badminton Interactive is like a great book on everything about badminton, just a lot better and more interesting! It gives you theory, video, animations, exercises, trainingprograms and lots more. If you wish to continue develop as a badminton player or coach Badminton Interactive is in my opinion the best helping tool you can get." Lars Sologub "If you want to get the most out of you training and work to improve your badminton skills Badminton Interactive gives you great help. There are lots of tips and drills that really works and even if you have a trainer the program will be very useful. One great thing about the program is that it is for all levels. Beginners will get a jump start and some of the best players in Denmark uses the program in their planning and organising of their training"
Henrik Lyngby "I started to use Badminton Interactive as a trainer, but after a while I realised that it was perfect to use it as a player as well. The training diary is probably the best part for a player to work with. Now I can look back and find exactly the kind of training I have been doing for example in preparation of an important tournament and decide if I have to do something different this time or maybe copy it exactly."
Tjitte Weistra Congratulations with a fantastic product! As a national youth coach I use Badminton Interactive to develop individual training schedules for my players. The software supplies me with a complete set of training schedules for strength, endurance, speed, technique and even nutrition. In addition Badminton Interactive helps me to easily analyse and improve a player's individual problem areas.
But I also like to advise every badminton player to use Badminton Interactive, because Badminton Interactive reduces the need for a human badminton coach. In fact, Badminton Interactive is your own personal badminton coach!
Bas Strang "Very good for all level players. I am using it both as an international player and when I am coaching club-players."
