Van Eindhoven naar Aichi: Sport verbindt werelden! 🏸🇯🇵

Bij de Eindhoven Badminton Academy geloven we dat sport geen grenzen kent. Onze speelster Ridhima brengt dit momenteel prachtig in de praktijk tijdens haar trainingsreis in Japan!

Zij kreeg een fantastisch en warm welkom bij Shikatsu Jr Badmintonclub in Aichi, waar ze samen met een grote groep lokale talenten op de baan stond (zie de groepsfoto!).

Daarnaast traint ze intensief met haar Japanse trainer Kyoji-san om haar spel naar een hoger niveau te tillen.

Deze unieke ervaring laat zien dat passie voor badminton een universele taal is die culturen overbrugt en internationale vriendschappen opbouwt.

We zijn enorm trots op Ridhima’s inzet en ontzettend dankbaar voor de geweldige gastvrijheid van de club in Japan!

Arigatou gozaimasu! 🇳🇱🤝🇯🇵
