I haven’t payed badminton since a long time after I stopped it when I was in grade 5. But I always wanted engage in some sport or activity during the lockdown and the DLP as we don’t really get a chance to do so. So, I decided to go to play badminton as I had lots of free time during DLP and it was really important for us to stay away from our screens. I went to play badminton with my brother and a badminton trainer. I played badminton for a month for about an hour each day. Badminton was always one of my favourite sports to play that I was never got tired of. It was really interesting to get a chance to practice playing badminton again for me and my brother. We also had some competitions between us to see who wins and who has practiced the most and both of us got chances to win. I could only practice playing it for about a month because we didn’t get a chance to play it when the school started last October. But I got some chances to go back to play it with my brother during the weekends. I felt like I improved some of my skills that I had already forgotten. 

It was a huge stress reliever for me and it was a really fun way to spend time during lockdown period and DLP. I really hope to be. able to head to a court again as soon as possible when I get a chance.
