While having the skill and competitive edge in the sport is cool, looking fabulous, while hitting the shuttlecock is far more important, especially when participating in the CLWC Badminton Classic.
Important things to keep in mind:
Comfort is key if you’re good. If you’ve got the skill, comfort should be your priority. You want to be able to move around the court easily. Sneakers, breathable shirt and shorts are all you need when you’ve got the talent to beat any of your opponents.
Distraction plays an important factor for the rest of us. If you are lacking in skill, you might want to invest in an outfit that will distract your opponent, even if this means discomfort on your part. You don’t need to spend a lot of money for the perfect outfit. Search your closet for neon, stripes, tutus, and obnoxious patterns, and you’ll be set.
If participating in the Olympics for Badminton, winning is the only way you can earn a medal. By the way, if you’ve made it to the Olympics, you should probably not be reading this and keep doing what you’re doing.
However, if participating in the CLWC Badminton Classic, style does matter. The winner of the match will win a trophy, but so will the best-dressed team. (The trophy on the left, however, is not how your trophy will look. The trophy will most likely not be related to Badminton and instead be a recreational U-12 girls basketball or soccer trophy. Hey, it’s still a trophy :) )
Once you’re covered head-to-toe in Badminton garb of your style, don’t forget that the most important thing to put on for the tournament is your game face.
