Badminton more than picnic game with beer
by Dave Nielsen
Badminton, the fastest racket sport in the world, suffers from an image prob¬ lem in the United States.
It is thought of, when it is thought of at all, only as summertime amusement.
But, according to CSUF badminton coach Ron Deaver, "It's more than a backyard picnic game played with a beer in one hand and the racket in the other.'
'Badminton has as much appeal as racketball and tennis, and it's faster than both and harder to be good at," Deaver said.
A power shot can leave the racket at a speed up to 200 miles per hour, but it can also be hit very softly; between these two extremes a great variety of speeds and trajectories can be used.
"The result is a game with constant change of pace and constant move¬ ment," he explained.
The sport requires subtlties and skills that make it different from all other racket sports and in some respects more difficult, Deaver said.

Women's volleybalj team signs three new talents
by Linda Marty
A stronger, solid defense could well be the focus of next year's women's volleyball team with the signing of three talented players.
Hoping to strengthen the front row after the loss of standout Micki Horn to graduation, Bulldog coach Leilani Overstreet has signed two junior college players and a high school talent for next season.
Overstreet is lookinjz for strong blocking on the front row from Tina Pale Pale, a 6-9 transfer from Skyline College in San Bruno.
'She has a great vertical jump,' Overstreet said of Pale Pale ' s skills.
Helping Pale Pale with front row duty will be Kim Fruzzetti, a 6-0, all-around player from Foothill High in Pleasanton, whom Overstreet said is an "outstanding student* aa well as a good athlete.
From further south comes Nancy Hufford, a transfer from Santa Barbara City College. "She's an outstanding setter," said Overstreet.
In addition to these three players, Overstreet is still hoping to sign a fourth, Kim Eisenhart from Golden West Junior College.
Eisenhart, according to Overstreet is a "fantastic middle blocker," and at 6-3 has been highly sought by several colleges as she is skillful on the basket¬ ball court as well as the volleyball court. Eisenhart has narrowed her
badminton and all other racket sports is the length of the rallies.
"The bird can cross the net 26 or 30 times before a point is won" The longer rallies make a more exciting game, he said.
Many players plan their shot in ad¬ vance, "In a sense it' s like a cheas game, you have to set up your point," he explained.
The best players in the world are from Asia, where in some countries the game is nearly the national sport, and its stars are national heroes.
"One player has become a movie star and even has his picture on a postage stamp," Deaver said.
Southern California has the largest concentration of top players in the Unit¬ ed States. However, even in California badminton gets little, if any press cover¬ age, and the public is for the most part unaware of its existence as a competitive sport.
Although badminton ren—ins unrec¬ ognized, and its players unrewarded, Deaver said that the potential for popu¬ larizing the sport exists.
choices down to just a few schools and is considering Fresno.
Overstreet said that the outlook for next year ia good with nine return¬ ing players, seven seniors and two juniors. Overstreet added that two seniors, both good players, will be trying out for the team.
With the new recruits, "next year'a team should be stronger than thia year," said Overstreet.
This season the team tied with San Jose for third in conference, after a fifth year finish the previous year.
