Para Badminton

We feature 2 remarkable para badminton stars, both of them wheelchair players. Nagashima Osamu is not only a multiple medalist in international competition, he's also an acclaimed sanitation-tech researcher, equally devoted to his work as his sport. Satomi Sarina, a flexible player with great reach and skillful chair-work, made waves when she became World Champion just 2 years into her career. She's also been playing an active role in helping her hometown recover in the aftermath of a typhoon that hit in 2019. The 2 pioneering players share what they love about their sport.
