From Badminton court to Boules rink: A Chat with Former National Badminton Champion, Emily Chen
Exciting news for sports enthusiasts in Nijmegen! Get ready to say ”bonjour” to boules as badminton takes a temporary time-out. Our scheduled badminton session on February 7th has unfortunately been cancelled due to an unforeseen closure of teh sports hall.
But fret not, fellow sports aficionados! The Activities Committee has stepped up to the plate, bringing us a fantastic option – a boules night at the beloved BoulesBitesBar.
We were thrilled to snare some time with former national badminton champion, Emily Chen, to get her take on this unexpected shift in sporting gears.
Moderator: emily, thanks for joining us today. What are your initial thoughts on this boules night replacing badminton for one evening?
Emily Chen: It’s certainly an fascinating change of pace,that’s without a doubt! While I’m naturally partial to badminton,I’m always up for trying new things,and boules seems like a fun and social way to spend an evening.
Moderator: Absolutely! And it allows for a bit of amiable competition, something we badminton players thrive on.Do you see any parallels between the two sports beyond their competitive nature?
Emily Chen: Perhaps! Both sports require precision, strategy, and a good understanding of angles – although the tools of the trade are quite different! In badminton, you’re aiming for speed and power with a shuttlecock, while boules गांव demands finesse and a delicate touch with those metal balls.
Moderator: Perhaps this coudl be a fun way for badminton players to develop some new skills that could even translate to their game.
Emily Chen: That’s a fascinating thought! Maybe a keen eye for judging distances and angles honed during a boules match could help with court positioning in badminton.
Moderator: That’s a unique outlook, Emily! Now, the BoulesBitesBar seems like a lively spot. Do you think the social aspect of this event will appeal to badminton enthusiasts?
Emily Chen: Definitely! Badminton frequently enough fosters a strong sense of community, and social gatherings are a great way to strengthen those bonds. I imagine the BoulesBitesBar will provide a relaxed and enjoyable surroundings for everyone to connect.
Moderator:
The Activities Committee deserves kudos for this swift thinking. It’s great to see them prioritizing engagement and fun for the sports community. Emily, any final words of encouragement for those considering joining the boules night?
