ShuttleSquad - Badminton Podcast

Please welcome our first guest in ShuttleSquad history: Toma Junior Popov! This episode provides insight in the relationship of the french brothers Toma Junior and Christo Popov who both are in the top-25 in the men's singels world ranking + are also ranked no. 18 in men's doubles! Two brothers on court with their dad as coach behind the court becoming European Champion just recently in Horsens - The battle for one spot in the men's singels competition of the Paris Olympics. Definitely an episode worth listening for every badminton fan. Enjoy episode 32 of ShuttleSquad!

Christo Popov just became European Champions... in doubles! No front, but we didn't see that coming, and Christo also didn't. In this episode we obviously wrap up the European Championships that took place in Horsens, Denmark form April 8 -13. Not a full wrap, as Kirsty could not join the Squad this week, but for sure a nice little chat about upsets, surprises and an unlucky week for team Denmark (at least in the men's disciplines) in Horsens. Also: Marvin's team Saarbrücken-Bischmisheim is facing Christo's team Dortelweil in the Bundesliga seminfinals and the Squad discusses which scoring system they like most. Enjoy episode 31 of ShuttleSquad!

The ShuttleSquad is back! After a solid 6-month-break, Kirsty Gilmour , Christo Popov, Marvin Seidel and Thommy Fox gather around their microphones for the kick-off of season 2. And could there be a better timing for the first ever group episode? We don't think so! After a little Olympics throwback and some emotional memories, the Squad is looking ahead to the European Championships that are starting today in Horsens, Denmark. Spoiler: The Squad is aiming for some medals so get ready for an exciting week ahead! Enjoy the comeback episode! There will be more. Big big shoutout to Selena Piek who ended her international badminton career after the Paris Olympics and for sure will be missed on the Squad - but we will make sure to bring her back for a few episodes! <3

The last episode of this Olympic journey of the ShuttleSquad. After getting a deep insight in Marvin's experience in the last episode, Thommy is wrapping things up with Kirsty, Christo and Selena. It was an intense ride and everybody took some time off after Paris but we wanted to end this journey with a little wrap-up of the whole ride since we started recording in January. And Selena is also revealing some new plans that even Thommy didn't know about. Thanks for listening everyone! If you liked this podcast, please leave a comment and let us know if you'd be interested in a season 2 and what you'd like to hear :) Sincerely, the ShuttleSquad <3

Marvin gives unfiltered insight into his mind during that hard phase and how he kept going and pushed himself every day.
