Giving you an insight into all things BADMINTON! - Спорт
Hope you guys enjoyed this different video - it was a lot of fun to film, and thanks again to Pat for being such a good sport! Don't forget to check out the RacketPal App here: go.racketpal.co.uk/Greg
Hilarious video!! And well done to Pat, he took it very well!!
Do one more it's good 😂
Hi Greg, I'm a big fan of yours. I'm going to thickin my face, I just broke my very old racket and I'm planning to stop because of it. Can I get a racket from you so that I can continue my dream to be the best player I can be and soon to beat you. Enjoying your videos here in the Philippines.
All in good fun. I was surprised though that Pat didn't recognise a national player. It just goes to show badminton is really a less popular sport in the UK. I may be wrong though.
Hi Badminton Insight! After watching some of your videos for q few days already, I think I'm going to play badminton again after more than 20 years of not playing it competitively. Your warm ups and training videos are a good help for me to refresh on the trainings I had before in the younger years. Love lots 💓 💗
Me: laughing at your pretend newbie footwork
Also me: *wait that’s how I exactly move around the court* 🙃
Hehe..me too
😂😂😂
Maybe i should try left handed too? He played exactly like me when using right hand.
Me too!
@@zmollon 😂
It would've been funnier if Pat was pretending as well, then turned out to be a pro during coaching session.
We'd know him if he was also a pro 😜
@@BadmintonInsight I'm an amateur, play club twice a week and sometimes local leagues. I'm also in my early 40s and quite overweight.
I was watching my lad doing martial arts the other week and three young lads came into the hall for a game, so I offered to make numbers up if they had a racquet to lend me.
It was funny when they realised I could play 😂
It was perfectly setup for that Princess Bride moment, 'Ah but I am not actually Right handed...Ah but neither am I!'
Then along came Lin Dan in disguise 😱
@@johnthorp3649 sir even a 3 year old can play badminton, it's just the kind of sport it is not like football or soccer or basketball
Heaps of credit to Pat. He took the gag really well.
More importantly in my book, as a good 'intermediate' he was prepared to play a beginner that he didn't know. Too many club players forget their roots and don't want to play with or against beginners.
Good fun, well done guys!
That is absolutely correct! Some guys I play with usually do not like to play with beginners and I find that awful. Why can't they just try to give some advice to them instead of being arrogant? But then again, it is not their responsibility to teach I guess :D
@@saiprashanth592 or they wanna improve first and then try helping
@@madhavnadgauda8643 learning or improvement here is a continuous process. There's no limit to how much one can improve. By your logic, they won't ever help. But I get your point. But i personally saw players literally asking their amateur partners to leave the court just because they can't play good rallies. But that's fine too....no one's obligated to teach others
@@saiprashanth592 this is so me lmao. Its not like im arrogant or something. It just that when i play, i wanna feel the adrenaline kicking in intense match. You cant have that if you play againts a beginner
@@noramirulirfan1288 true dat.....even i sometimes go only with some advanced players to get that kick 🤣
Pat was a good sport! And he looked like he could hit the shuttle well. Well done Pat!
Yeah he was awesome! 👍🏼
Same!
This is damm ,after you changed hand i just couldn't stop laughing , your left hand hit him like an asteroid
Haha 😂😜
in the ocean
Good grammar is sexy.
Yeah he was like "Wtf a cross court backhand clear this guy is insane"
Amazing, I was smiling while watching. A story: I help to coach beginners at a badminton leisure school in Porto, Portugal. We had this blonde foreign guy once coming for our training sessions. As I always do, I play a bit with beginners to measure their skill and fit them with same level players. I start playing with him with a plastic shuttle and in a few rounds, I noticed it was worth it to switch to feathers. 15 minutes later I was dripping sweat like I was in a competitive game. I paused for breathing and ask "So, you have played before, where?" His answer "Oh in the Czech Republic, I was in the youth national team." :D Shout out there for Jan!
That’s great to hear 😃😃
wait... was it Jan JANOŠTÍK?? That's a hella good player man!!
@@filipegomes6708 janoštik is not blonde haha
@@gregor-alic oh true ahahahah, I just heard the words "Czech national team player" and "Jan" and I just thought on that Jan AHAHAHA my bad
You offering him a coaching session was very good gesture. Play like a champ and stay humble, that actually increses your respect and fear, too.
I love how you don't just go rookie crushing for the video and actually offered a coaching session, which I would be really happy to accept the good deal!
Imagine Lee Chong Wei coming in under the name Pat.
😂😂👌👌
i would flip out 🤣
ahahah perfect "Hold up" moment
And facing Lin Dan in disguise... 😁😁😁 Treat to the audience.
Lee chong wei is not that great..never wins anything actually
Your beginner's game (over-enthusiasm, unnecessary movements, lifting the shuttle with a hand instead of the racket, etc.) is pretty convincing :p
😂😂
3:56 "Do you play with Feathers or Plastic" 😆🤣 i love pat reaction by being cosiderate and said "Usually"
😂🙈
Such a treat to have a coaching session with you two for Pat.
5:44
You're a beginner
*Executed a perfect cross-court backhand clear*
Haha that was at the point where I upped my game!
Even pretending to be a beginner, Greg can't stop doing the split-step everytime. This proves how profesh greg is 😂
😂 it was so hard!
Not gonna lie, this is probably the most entertaining video on your channel. You should make it into a series. Maybe go to different cities matching up with beginner/intermediate players. If you came to Derby, I would totally pretend I didn't know who you were and act shocked when you start playing with your left hand :-D
Kinda similar to Basketball park video take overs hahaha. I agree making it into a series!
We didn't know it would be this popular haha
Haha thank you! We didn't know how well it would be received! Derby isn't far ;-D
Happy to watch this video 🔥❤️
PLEASE MAKE THIS A SERIES!!!!
More of these! Very fun to watch, and how clear the difference in skill is when a Top player plays a decent badminton player. But at least play a few points before revealing your true self. Would have been fun to see the opponents reaction and changes in mood while the games go on.
Haha loved the video!!! Please do more videos like this❤️
I always waiting for a new video, I am also a badminton player since Elementary up to now I'm 24 yrs old now. Thank you for giving us a inspirational video just to become a good player.
These kinds of prank videos are the good ones. Positive and brings a smile to your smile hole.
Haha thanks 🙏🏼
Love this! More!
this is one of my favorite. well done to you both, and Pat too
Really enjoyed this video. Thank you. You made my day💛
Glad you enjoyed it!!
This was so fun! More please!
Haha, thanks! 😄👍🏼
that was really fun to watch, the plays at he end were insane - great stuff love to see it!
Glad you enjoyed it Myles!
I liked how it became a coaching session and benefited him as well in the end!
Amazing videos! keep up the great content. :)
Love your videos❤
This is so wholesome, keep up the great content!
Thanks 😊 we’ll try!
Such a fun video. I couldn't believe him not knowing any one of you two from the start on.
Thank you!! 😆
Iam from India i know you guys😂
The deception at 5:50 was amazing!!! Would it be possible for you guys be able to do a tutorial on deceptions? I think a lot of shuttlers will benefit from learning a high skill technique like that :D
This is awesome! Would love to play against better players! Great of Pat to play with 'beginners' as that is always a challenge when you're a beginner, not many want to play with you lol Nice of you guys to do a bit of coaching too
the enthusisam of you both has drawn me to see this queen of all sports, badminton
by the way , you should played more with the opponent, it was good to see
love your videos guys ,always watching it
Thank you so much ☺️
Haha im so happy that this channel is growing day by day 🤠 and i'm glad that im connected with this channel from the beginning 😎. Haha that deception with left hand shows all his power hat's off sir 🤠 you both will definitely reach millions of subscribers love from india ❤️
Thank you so much!! 😊👍🏼
Really fun to watch. Pat was such a sport. Would have love to see his reaction when you told him that you are amongst the top in the country and world ranked. I would have like wow if I were him...such a fun video!
Thanks Victor! 😆👍🏼 He was a very good sport!
well when he did was cross court backhand overhead clear, that was a clue!
I've never seen someone playing with their "non badminton hand" and still hit the shuttle as hard as you 🤣
I'm not convinced I could even hit the shuttle at all if I played with my off hand!
That's a good point, and he was holding back too!
You've given me an idea to go to a beginner badminton group training session and play with my other hand.
That was fun. Good for him for being a good sport of it. I'm also glad that he wanted to have a session as well
Yeah, it was a lot of fun! 😄
Fun video! Great content!
Nice of you to coach James a bit.
Plot twist, your next “intermediate” guy will be a pro himself...
Thanks Anton! 😁
That was brilliant guys love it 👍 great idea to promote the app
Thank you so much Amie! 😄👍🏼
Awesome video 🙃… Pat definitely was surprised.. Didn’t know about Racketpal - will give it a shot.. thanks again !!
Thank you ☺️👍🏼
Reminded me of a time when i played with left hand and then changing into my power hand. LOL
Haha!
such a good sport. pat is a legend
We want to see many more of these videos with a proper batch instead of just 1 player. Love your channel guys. Keep the videos coming.
Thanks 😀😀
I am an upper intermediate level player and I wish I could play with you guys.(cannot compete with you though) Please make plans to visit India for a fan meet if possible
@varun kanneboina
I'm in
Loved it! Looks a lot fun, and you get a masterclass on the spot too! 🤩
Thank you Neil!
On a trip down to the area, from North Wales, it was great to meet the legendary Pat and his son in the TRME shop!! My son and I had fun re-watching this video afterwards 🙂 well done Pat 👍 (and hope you got the shoes you wanted)
It was lovely to meet you all and yes, I did find a pair of shoes in the end 🥳☺️
Guys that was beyond amazing!
Incredible ❤️👍👍👍
Great. You also sharing knowledge with him
And that is why I love your channel :)
Ah thank you so much! 🤗
Great video mate! :D
Thanks a lot! Glad you enjoyed it!
Lucky guy got to learn and play with Greg 👍
Excellent video!
Thanks 😀😀
Wrist movement tells one is player or not...all pro players jerk their wrist and produces enormous power.. and the sound from the string is music for any badminton lover
Aloha Greg and Jenny, nice video, everyone was great. Thanks. Stay well.
Glad you enjoyed it Bryan!
What a great way to get a sponsor and make a good video out of it🎉
This was brilliant 😂😂😂looks like a lot of fun!!
Haha thanks Max! 😁
Me: laughing at his cute movements
Me 2 laughs later: wait- that's exactly me!
😂
please continue this series
Wowwww...
..love from Bangladesh ....it was awesome....keep it up....i wish i could play with you one day
Best Badminton youtube channel. These guys are awesome
Ah thank you so much! :)
😂😂 amazing! Loved the end match too
And his thoughts - what a nice guy
Haha thanks! 😁👍🏼
This is my favourite video from you guys, so far. It was fun and sneaky and good god that smash at 7:48 looked amazing. Also, you somehow made advertising interesting and not literally the worst thing in the world.
Ahh thank you so much! :)
It's honestly hilarious watching u try to battle the muscle memory from all ur training. Your split step was such a giveaway lol, no beginner has a split step THAT efficient XDD
you coached him a bit as well? that's so nice :)
Excellent idea guys 👏👏👏👏.
Thank you! 😊
Today was my bday and you guys uploaded this video. This made my day :)
Happy birthday! 😄
@@BadmintonInsight Thank you

Haha, thanks! 😆
Nice Video Guys....Enjoyed a Lot Watching This !!!
Ah thank you so much that’s great to hear 😀
@@BadmintonInsight Big Fan😇
Excellent, gonna check out racket pal. Thanks, great laugh.
Thank you so much! 😄
More videos like this
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you for that
want more video like this
I swear, even though I didn't know Greg in advance and no matter he pretended being a rookie with his racket, I would immediately spot him as a serious player by this professional split step around 4:54 🤣🤣🤣 Muscle memory doesn't lie, split steps speak for themselves
Hahaa it was very difficult to try and forget everything 😂
haha im laughing so hard, this feels so good tbf. you guys are awesome
Thank you so much 😄
defo made my day... thanks for the laughter haha
Haha thanks 😂
Amazing!!!
Nice content. please make a tutorial for cross-backhand drop shots! How to make the birdie fast. I can land a few shots but the birdie is a little bit slow. been struggling to perfect that shot.
Do more please! This time for MXD doubles 😁😁😁
@badminton insight. ... love your channel . Would love to have a video on shuttle cocks. feather and plastic. which one to choose and what are the differences.... thank you .
man... i would go from my country (Portugal) to where you are just to play with you!!! big fan!!!
such a good sport! props to Pat!
I love you guys I have liked evry videos of urs👍
Thank you so much!
Great video, keep it up guys. Although wouldn’t think you’d get away with higher level players tho, the shoe could’ve been a massive give away!
Possibly yes haha!
Loved it 😌
Glad you enjoyed it :)
That was absolute gold ! Very well acted Greg . 😂
Haha thanks Matt 😄
Great video
Thanks!!
If that was me, it would really be an honor to play with an international pro player. ^^,
Hope someone could visit the Philippines and play with me one day. ^^,
Ah glad you enjoyed it 😃
Part 2!!
The last smash was awesome !
Our club occasionally had international players (this was a few years ago) and these guys turned up to play. So I was paired up with one of them in a mixed doubles. I introduced myself to my partner and vice versa, and casually asked if he had played much before, to which he replied "yes, a little bit" and I thought to myself "oh no, we're gonna get slaughtered" because our opponents were quite the strongest pair in the club. As time went on, however, it became apparent that my partner not only had played quite a lot, but was actually a fantastic player. I will never forget the moment I discovered he was none other than Rashid Sidek, one of the famous badminton brothers, and realised I was probably the only partner he had had who questioned his playing ability!
Pat must have thought that the game must be boring but turned out he's actually playing against pro hahah. love this video and i am your new subscriber. thanks to Pat for the "smash the subscribe button"
Haha thank you very much!
This is one of the funniest videos I have watched in a long time.
Ah thank you 😄
how lucky this guy is...got a free session and coaching from two of the best!
this could be an opportunity for long series?! Like, you pretend to be a beginner for 15minutes, if the person is good sport offer to coach them (I don't even know if you do that). That'd give an idea for range of players to experience somewhat what a coaching session could bring them and hopefully entice a lot more people to try to become better at the game :) just an idea :D keep up the good work
Definitely! Thanks for the idea Francis 😃
This is a fun video. I could use such a coach XD. I don't play badminton in a club but I used to join certain competitions at school for fun and I won more matches than I thought against real badminton players. It's also because I play tennis and I have a very unorthodox way of serving and playing (I'm not hitting overhead serves, just weird technique) and I was quite quick. it's such a fun sport and very underrated.
that was really fun!
I feel in love with Badminton watching this match
