Words from the coach...

"My aim is to promote Badminton amongst the youth, to develop National athletes, and to help those who are financially incapable of supporting themselves in pursuing their Badminton skills.

As a coach/trainer, I believe anything is possible, anything is achievable, and anything is within our reach.

I have the passion to develop and produce real athletes. I am willing to help, to exert time and effort to train every player, even to those who can't afford it.

Not just to achieve outstanding results in every tournament, but most importantly I want to instill in every player the proper attitude and discipline to be a good athlete that will help them later on in their badminton career and in life.

One major factor to keep in mind is to continuously develop and enhance the skills even after gaining achievements.

This is a fulfillment of a dream - every athlete's dream. My goal. My passion. My life!"

Coach Paeng Dionisio
