Y u can't play better in both singles & doubles event

Hi athletes,

My answer to this morning's question, brought up by some ladies is that why Singles is different from Doubles.
The Difference :
1) Footwork is slightly different, singles cover all corners of the court, whereas doubles coverage is shared. (doubles more side jumps and movements to execution target)

2) Setting up of defense is shared, whereas singles is alone in the middle of the court, position depending on the capabilities of each individual competency.

3) There is a common system of combination movements. Eg : (a) when the server serves a low service, the server will immediately cover the front court. (b) when the shuttle is up in the opponent's court both players will set up defense coverage, position depending on the height of the shuttle and also the depth of the shuttle. (c) upon defending the shuttle, the defender that returns the opponent's attacking shot into the front court he automatically moves into the front for coverage. At this point of time his partner will move from mid court to mid rear ready for attacking.

This is only 1 part of the difference regarding the coverage. So athletes how are you able to train on both events & expect to perform well on both.

The human brain is superb, created the computer but it does not work as the computor works.

Be focus on what you want and you can reach to your ultimate goal setting.
