Our Story
Wing’s Badminton is the first of its kind in British Columbia and has introduced the "Systemic Asian Olympic Team Training Method" and technique to Canada.
The training program fully integrates everything from diet, in home exercise, ground strength, footwork skills, techniques, game play, and strategy. Focusing on custom-designed and specialized competition training, actual combat experience/techniques are used so that students can go one step further and reach the higher standard of domestic/international competitions.
Our small group training sessions feature one head coach and two assistant coaches, teaching the Chinese professional team system, and using Wing's unique training methods. This allows students to be equipped with proper skills and tactics in a relatively short period of time.
Wing's Badminton is endorsed and sponsored by Badminton Canada and Badminton BC to run international exchange training programs. We have a contract and work closely with Badminton Shanghai, a governing body of Badminton in China.
