Badminton doubles running skills and tactics are one of the key factors to gain an advantage in the game. Here are some basic running tips and tactics:
1.Basic Running Skills:
Cross Running: Both players should learn to cross run in order to quickly switch between the front of the net and the backcourt.
Side-by-side runs: When the opponent hits the ball, two players can stand side by side in order to quickly go to the net or back up.
Triangle Running: When the opponent hits the ball, one player will stand in the corner of the badminton court while the other player will stand in the middle, forming a triangle running pattern.
2.Tactics in front of the net:
Control in front of the net: Players at the net should strive to control the area in front of the net, making frequent picks and volleys to force the opponent to retreat.
Variation of Strokes: Players at the net should use different strokes (e.g. fast, slow, high, low) to confuse their opponents.
3.Backcourt Tactics:
High-low combination: Players at the back should be able to hit both high and low balls to limit the opposition's offense and create scoring opportunities.
Power and speed: Backcourt players should use their power and speed to their advantage to hit powerballs that are difficult to catch.
4.Defensive Tactics:
Defend aggressively: When the opponent is attacking, players should react quickly and defend aggressively.
Adjust your position: Players should be flexible in adjusting their position according to the way and direction of the opponent's shot.
5.Tacit cooperation:
Signal Communication: Players should communicate with each other through gestures or other means to understand the opponent's intention to run.
Complementary Movements: Players should complement each other based on the landing point and speed of the opponent's shot to avoid gaps.
6.Utilizing the width of the site:
Width utilization: Players should make full use of the width of the badminton court and try to make the opponent's defensive area as large as possible.
7.Switching offense and defense:
Quick Transitions: When defending, players should quickly switch to offense and score points by taking advantage of the opposing defense's gaps.
The above are some basic running skills and tactics, but in actual games, players need to flexibly use and adjust their tactics according to the game situation and the characteristics of the opponent.
