Holly Smith - BADMINTON
Holly is coached by Peter Higman and is ranked No.1 U15 for England.
The course will provide players with an opportunity to develop new skills and techniques while combining this with both on and off court training.
The course will include training on all disciplines and look at strokes, movement, speed, multi shuttle work and game play, while tailoring to the needs of each player.
International players will be on hand over the weekend to assist with coaching and raise the standard of game play. Starting with dinner on Friday evening the course is full board (with lunch only for non-residents) and offers twin accommodation with tea/coffee making facilities and special Saturday evening dinner. Not only do we provide first class coaching, we have limited numbers to ensure maximum quality to each player.
