About Summer Badminton Camp
I want kids to actually enjoy their summer break while getting better at badminton. For me, it's not just about talent - mehnat se champion bante hain (champions are made through hard work). I’ve been coaching for 12+ years, and I know every child needs a different push.
What Happens at Camp
- We start by checking where your child stands, then get into real training.
- Basics first - every stroke, every grip, every move. No shortcuts.
- Footwork drills are intense. Expect a lot of "Chalo, chalo, chalo!" (Let's go!) from me.
- Multi-shuttle drills (up to 50 shuttles!) for stamina and leg strength.
- Ground training for fitness and agility, plus meditation for focus.
- I’ll guide on nutrition too - because player sirf court pe nahi banta (a player is built off the court too).
My Coaching Style
- I’m hands-on and direct. I focus on choti choti cheezein (small details) like ankle position and body weight.
- I push kids, but I’m always there with a "Bahut badhiya!" (Very good!) when they nail it.
- I’m BWF certified, and my team is SAI certified. We’re all about youth badminton training camp and making kids love the khel (sport).
Locations & Dates
- Vasant Kunj (DAV Public School), Saket (NGFS), Lodhi Road (AFBBS) - all indoor, pro courts.
- Camp runs May 18th to June 30th.
We keep slots limited so every kid gets proper attention. If your child wants to work hard, have fun, and actually improve, this is the place.

My Story
Hi, Ishant here, BWF certified coach, been with badminton for 13 years. For me, it’s not just a sport, it’s about discipline, hard work, and never giving up. I’m not only a coach - I’m a mentor, counsellor, sometimes just cheering on the side. Coaching Delhi Team for Nationals was special, but the real reward? Seeing my students win and grow. Wohi meri asli kamai hai (that’s my real earning). We sweat, we laugh, we push each other. Simple goal - help my players fly high.
My Work
Badminton Coaching for All Ages - We train kids from 4-5 years and adults, with batches for grassroot, beginner, intermediate, and advanced levels.
Holistic Training Approach - Sessions start with meditation, then ground training, technical skills, and cool-down. Multi-shuttle drills training is a must.
Fitness & Nutrition Guidance - We focus on fitness training for badminton and also guide on nutrition for better performance.
Summer Camps & Tournaments - We run badminton summer camps in Delhi and prep students for district, national, and international tournaments.
Who Can Join? - Anyone with dedication - kids, adults, or pros. All I ask is discipline and a will to work hard.
