An occupation that is meaningful to me and that I enjoy is badminton. I used to play the sport all through school, and I enjoy as it tests a persons agility and is very fast paced.
Wikipedia is a grat website to use in order to gain a quick definition on a particular topic. When searching badminton on wikipedia the following definition come up 'Badminton is a racquet sport played by either two opposing players (singles) or two opposing pairs (doubles), who take positions on opposite halves of a rectangular court that is divided by a net. Players score points by striking a shuttlecock (also known as a shuttle, bird, or birdy) with their racquet so that it passes over the net and lands in their opponents' half of the court. Each side may only strike the shuttlecock once before it passes over the net. A rally ends once the shuttlecock has struck the floor. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Badminton
Another website I use to update myself is http://www.thecgf.com/. This website is the for the commonwealth games. It allows me to keep up to date with all the badminton action when it is the year for the games. I simply just click on the sports link and then to badminton. There is also a range of other sports that are within the commonwealth that are included as well. The site allows me to keep up with the sport by country, gameor events. Having this wide range of options is easy for me to access what games result I want.
The final website which I can access for badminton is http://www.sportingpulse.com/assoc_page.cgi?assoc=2406&name=Badminton%20New%20Zealand&client=1-0-0-0-0. From this website I am able to see a range of levels of badminton from New Zealand representatives through to regional representatives and tournaments. The events are arranged into age groups so it is easy to find what results I am looking for. There is an events calender on here which enables me to view or enter certain events if I wanted to. As well as the laws of badminton in order for me to keep up to date with any new rules or rule changes.
These websites allow communication through players and officals. They communicate to the public by letting them view the website but the public can also contact them through contact numbers and emails. With more people having access to information on their nearest club, they are more likely to participate in badminton or just even watch badminton.
Here is a youtube clip of a realllly amazing rally, both teams have awesome reflexes and placement of the shuttlecock.
