This week's guest is Team GB and Scottish International Badminton player Kirsty Gilmour. Kirsty joined us this week to speak about her passion for Badminton and how it played a big part of her school years. We find out about her successful journey into Badminton, highlighting the ups and downs of her career from Olympics to Commonwealth and European Games. Kirsty spoke at length about the challenges of overcoming the Asian dominance within the sport and how the increase media coverage and participation can overcome that challenge. We then have a go at one of Kirsty's lockdown challenges before being informed of Kirsty's training regime. She tells us how the impact of feedback, the monitoring of performance and the setting of goals has on her performance. Thank you once again Kirsty for giving up your time and wish you all the success in the future!
