Last weekend, articles about local news published articles about Thestar, citing Tan Boon Heong, the transition from junior to senior player is very difficult. This is true. Let’s discuss it.

This is especially true, because I found that Fred has a lot of factors that come into play. Getting badminton skills is a simple part. Putting all of these skills in a competitive game is very difficult. This is more like a mental aspect than the physical aspect.

We often simplify the mental aspect and call it nerves. More than that. Players need calmness and peace, clear thinking, courage and more traits. It’s so difficult to cover everything because everyone is different about the situation that puts them under extreme pressure. Instead let me talk about things that might go wrong, which makes quantification easier.

1.

Players cannot think clearly and cannot remember the tactical footage of the game. During training, the player may have practiced combinations such as a spinning net shot to force the elevator and crush it with. But during the game, the player lost the plot and forgot that this was the tactical game he needed to do. Then, the game plan collapsed and he lost.

2. The quality of the lens becomes worse

The player cannot control his shot. His leaves went out abnormally. His side shots always fly to both sides. His tennis is always too high. When the player attacks, his shot goes into the net.

3. Slow movement on the court

The player’s footwork becomes clumsy, as if the player has forgotten his footwork. His reach is poorer, and he is much slower than usual. Players lose balance more frequently.

These are three common symptoms that affect players. These influences young players have a greater impact on adults, not because they are young, but because they have not learned to overcome this yet. Adult players who persist are those who learn to conquer this spiritual challenge. When players cannot control their mental state, there are many reasons for these symptoms, but the symptoms are always the same.

From a biological point of view, the cause of these symptoms is that blood pressure becomes too high and heart rate is too high. When this happens, the brain suffers from a lack of oxygen, which leads to brain fog. Muscle pressure is very high, and it is difficult to control the intensity and speed of the reaction. His hands trembled and his legs felt weak. This causes all three symptoms above.

When players are young, they don’t know, and even for them, the game is just a game against a new friend in another court. Beginner activities are also a much lower key and feel like the rest of the badminton day. Some people call it young and vigorous, and they are not wrong.

But as the players grow, the game becomes more grand and the scenes are more daunting. The bet also gets higher. In the Youth Championship, everything is fun. No one talks about the prize. Talk about winning is a joke that everyone laughs at. At the advanced level, there are many dangers. For many players, it’s almost like life and death. Failure may mean the end of their careers. This attracts badminton fun, which makes players start overthinking and become very nervous.

This leads players to fear of losing. When they stay up late, their blood pressure will explode due to stress. As fear begins before and during the game, their heart rate starts.

Ultimately, it leads to the symptoms I mentioned above and causes the player to lose. This is because players start to develop fear of losing, which will lead them to lose. They lost the fun of playing badminton to grow up, and when it became so scary, many players couldn’t handle it.

I have no answer to this question. In terms of excitement, each player behaves differently. Coaches can help players manage this better. Parents can also help young players overcome time.

Malaysia is excellent at the youth level because we have a vibrant youth championship ecosystem. Young players have many opportunities to test themselves. There are also many good coaches around. But, at the advanced level, we are a sad case. Not many young players manage to transition.

Maybe it is because the transition is not well managed and is monopolized by BAM? I have no answer.

That’s it.
