The strict monitoring and screening of Badminton footware has become necessary as the foottraffic has significantly increased.
We have observed serious cosequences of wearing incorrect footware which creates serious Health & Safety issue for all players.
The increased amount of shoes marks white/black have required extensive regular cleaning which causes the badminton floors to become very slippery.
Some of the Non-Marking shoes from other sports like basket ball and vollyball etc with hard soles have been making indent marks and holes in the rubber mats which becomes another health and safety issue for all players.
