Program Description

Event Details

Join us at the LLRC to learn the basic principles of Badminton from world champion badminton players, Petro Takalo and Yuliia Olshevska.

Petro is an 11-time champion of Ukraine in singles badminton, 6-time champion in doubles badminton, and 2-time champion in mixed doubles badminton. He also won prizes at the European and World Championship, taking 5th place. And also in many tournaments in Ukraine and international tournaments there are more medals. He has 3 years of experience in badminton coaching and also in sports for more than 15 years.

Yuliia has 3 medals at the Ukrainian Championship in doubles badminton and took 5th place at the European Championship.

Because of the war in Ukraine, they have been forced to find another place to live and currently live and work in northwest Iowa. One thing they’ve found as they’ve relocated – they cannot live without badminton and want to bring badminton to northwest Iowans! Come learn about the game and watch two incredible players showcase their skills! Registration is capped at 16.
