〇Unique Aspects of Deaf Sports
"Trust" and "Instinct" in the Silent Court

In badminton, hearing players rely on “sounds” - the shuttlecock’s impact

sound and partner’s calls - to judge situations whilst playing. Deaf

badminton athletes, however, must judge using only vision, and that crucial

first step tends to be delayed. To overcome this barrier of “not hearing”, they

hone sharp observation skills and split-second judgment, and deepen

bonds and coordination with doubles partners through repeated practice.

When they achieve play comparable to hearing players, they feel

indescribable joy.

Because they cannot rely on sound, sharp observation and split-second
judgment are required

They read shuttlecock movement, opponent form, and slight timing

variations, developing long rallies with honed vision and instinct.

Doubles connected by “trust”

Partners repeatedly communicate to share tactics and establish rotations.

Confirming coordination takes more than double the time compared to hearing players,
but when their timing aligns perfectly, it is the proof of “accumulated practice” and
“strong bonds and trust”!

The depth of doubles play appears there.
