🏸 Join Alexandra Park Junior Badminton Club! 🏸

Looking for a fun, friendly and structured environment for your child to learn and develop their badminton?

Alexandra Park Junior Badminton Club is currently welcoming new players to our Wednesday junior sessions, with spaces available for children from Primary School through to Year 11.

We are a well-established junior badminton club in North London, running for more than 15 years. Today, we have more than 80 junior players and offer six sessions every week.

Our focus is on creating an enjoyable and social environment where children can make friends, have fun and develop their badminton, while still receiving structured, high-quality coaching.

Each session combines approximately 30 minutes of structured coaching and drills, covering technical, tactical and physical aspects of badminton, followed by approximately 30 minutes of games and match play. This gives players the opportunity to learn, practise and then apply their skills in a fun environment.

Our Head Coach has more than 20 years of coaching experience, international badminton experience and specialist experience working with children and young players.

But APJBC is about more than just playing badminton.

We also provide opportunities for older players to begin developing as young coaches. Players can start by volunteering through programmes such as the Duke of Edinburgh's Award and, as they gain experience, progress into our Junior Coach pathway.

From the age of 16, there may also be opportunities for selected young coaches to receive support towards completing their Level 1 coaching qualification, including potential funding through programmes such as the Jack Petchey Achievement Award.

So whether your child simply wants to enjoy badminton, make new friends and stay active, or would eventually like to develop further as a player or young coach, there is a pathway for them within the club.

Treinador de badminton precisa, obrigatoriamente, ter CREF?

A Lei 9.696/1998 regulamenta a profissão de Educação Física, mas não afirma de forma expressa que todo treinador esportivo precise ser Profissional de Educação Física.

Ao mesmo tempo, o STJ já decidiu, no caso do tênis, que a atuação técnica e tática não gera, por si só, obrigação de registro no CREF. A Lei Geral do Esporte também reconhece a profissão de treinador esportivo e admite diferentes caminhos de qualificação.

No badminton, a discussão ganha ainda mais relevância porque a CBBd exige CREF válido para o técnico permanecer atrás da quadra durante as competições.

A questão é: até onde vai a atuação do Profissional de Educação Física e onde começa a atuação específica do treinador esportivo?

Esse é um debate que merece ser feito com base na legislação, na formação profissional e nas necessidades reais de cada modalidade.

Deixe sua opinião nos comentários.

Turns out my past life as a barista and my current life as a badminton coach have finally combined… ☕🏸

Presenting: Shuttlecock Latte Art 😂

Not sure if this improves my players’ footwork, but it definitely improves my caffeine game.
From smashing shuttles to steaming milk, versatility is key, right?

Be honest… rate my latte art from 1 to 10!
