 Lee Baker – Head Coach

Lee has been playing badminton since he was 13 years old and is now, as he states, quite a bit older!  He played badminton for Yorkshire and Wales, and has coached Yorkshire U16s, Scotland U13s and England U18s – and has even coached an Olympic Silver Medallist!  He has a UKCC Level 2 coaching qualification and is proud to say that over the past 35 years of coaching he has coached all levels of badminton from beginners to Olympic standard, and from kids as young as 3 years old all the way up to the over 80s.

Lee has always had a passion for playing and coaching badminton, and rarely thinks about anything else (except Leeds United). He hopes that his infectious enthusiasm can help learners to reach new levels and achieve their badminton dreams.

 

 

 

Assistant Coach – Andrew Pennycook

Here is a bit of a bio from Andrew – Hi my name is Andrew Pennycook. I played badminton for the first time at St John’s primary school in Perth 50 years ago !!! I loved it and have been hooked ever since. As a youngster I enjoyed participating in the Perth and Kinross coaching system and gained a great deal from the coaching and encouragement given over a number of years. I recently completed the first step in the coaching pathway and hopefully will be able to give something back to the next generation of Perthshire badminton players. Sport and particularly badminton has been a huge part of my life and if some of our young people get as much as I have from badminton then as coaches we will be very happy!!!
