DARYL JACOBS
I am the lead coach of Wycombe Performance Centre alongside Gary Fox. I have been coaching full time for the past 4 years, previously at the University of East Anglia (UEA) and Norwich School. As of September 2014, I began coaching at Ebbisham Performance Centre in Surrey and joined the Performance Centre here in High Wycombe.
I have trained and played badminton full-time since the age of 18 and enjoyed much success on the National Circuit. I have been selected to represent England in many events, including the Danish Cup and the Six Nations. As a senior player, my highest national ranking has been #7 and I continue to play competitively in Senior National tournament as well as representing a French club in their National League.
I believe as well as learning and perfecting badminton skills, the key to good performance is an understanding of fitness and, because I am still trying to better myself, I take part in many physical activities including triathlons, marathons and ironman events.
I hope by sharing my experiences and life achievements with the people that I coach, they will gain encouragement and motivation to be passionate about and achieve their goals.
I look forward to working and developing players here at Badminton Wycombe as well as visiting local schools to support the development of grass roots badminton.
