Badminton Case Study

The Problem

Background of the Study

Sports equipment, called sporting goods were sold, is any object used for sport or exercise. Historically many sports have developed their sporting equipment over time. As the sporting equipment industry improves, so does the athlete performance. This is due to the fact that the equipment is more efficient, lighter and stronger it forming a bio-mechanical system, interacting with the athlete. Since the massive adoption of wearable, new sports equipment tend to be electronics and connected to deliver data performances. (Stefanyshyn, Darren J.; Wannop, John W. 2015)

In the late 1990’s to the early part of 2000’s, the first shuttlecock gunner or launcher was introduced by Jonathan Taryoto. In this machine,

In the Philippines, badminton is a sport and an important game in that country’s physical education curriculum; however, it is still being taught using a skill-based approach based on the secondary schools. In contrast, many places around the world including, Europe, Canada, Australia and other seemingly more research-aware countries, have moved on from a skill-led approach to tactics led approach, in both the teaching and coaching contexts. There has also been a shift in the research paradigm among authors with the majority of research into skills-based learning becoming largely irrelevant (Metzler 2005). However, in the Malaysian context making comparisons between the tactical approach and technical approach is still a lively issue for debate, as the teachers who are accustomed to the “old fashioned” technical skill-based ways-of-doing are now starting to be challenged by innovation (Nathan and Haynes 2013). The research project included the examination of important badminton game play parameters such as a movement to the base (a position on the court in badminton that is regarded as a “ready” position), decision making, and skill execution in gameplay performances (French KE, Werner PH, Taylor K,Hussey K, and Jones J

Generally, teachers use the traditional way of teaching badminton to the students. The implementation of shuttlecock gunner for the badminton players is to improve the teaching-learning process and to enhance their physical and intellectual. Therefore, it is necessary to know the importance of badminton using the improvised shuttlecock gunner in our constitution and capabilities at the students to improve them. In the context, we researchers felt the importance in conducting this study.

By the help of this research, we can formally introduce the shuttlecock gunner as an instructional material. This can help teachers and coaches to improve the learning process of all badminton students and players. By equipping them with competitive movements and in order to provide practice for the more experienced and beginner
