Special care has been taken in building the badminton facility by taking care of the long term affect of the players health. The playing surface is a multi-layer flooring which is soft on the knees.
The surface is made of 5 tiers:
1. Humid absorber
2. Shock absorber pads
3. Timber
4. Floorboard
5. Global standard Yonex mats
We have given special attention to the type of surface that we use for badminton. After a lot of research, we have concluded that a floating surface with the Yonex badminton mats gives the optimum performance for both the game and the body. The long term affect on a players knees and bone joints is important consideration for us on investing in a top quality surface.
Age and performance level of users can also be a determining factor. Because their bones and joints are still growing and their muscles are not as developed, young children may benefit from a sports floor that has higher shock absorption to minimize injuries and reduce impact.
A flooring with shock absorber can benefit the players by reducing the long term stress effect on the knee joints. Shock pads and wooden beams work in unison to ensure that the force exerted onto the playing surface is split between different units. This increases the elasticity of the floor, in effect reducing forces on the athlete’s body. This force reduction is measured by a statistic called Force Reduction (KA).
