A bit about Chris…Chris Halfpenny was born in Croydon (Shirley)
and is presently still living in the area. Chris was introduced to badminton by his mother and continued to play the sport
at school. He became passionate about keeping up with the sport from 2005 at the age of 19. He has played alongside
and competed with Ian Robinson and in local leagues throughout Surrey. In 2005 Chris began coaching as an assistant with Badminton
England and passed his UKCC coaching badge Level 2 enabling him to teach high quality sessions and build up to better fitness.
Chris spends most of his time running 10k fun runs, and going to the gym and spending his days on the badminton court. In
summer 2008 Chris finished a 220 mile charity walk from Cornwall to South Croydon Sports club within 6 days for the NSPCC.
Chris says :“Badminton has inspired me to become a better athlete, to be more focused
and sharp minded. I wish to introduce these values to those who would like to learn badminton and meet, socialize and compete
with other players.”
