Noor of Bahrain — The Girl Who Never Lets It Drop

Noor of Bahrain — The Girl Who Never Lets It Drop

Age: 11     Region: Middle East

Noor has one rule.

Don't let it hit the ground.

This applies to shuttlecocks, balloons, beach balls, and—according to Noor—possibly life in general.

She discovered badminton almost by accident. Someone handed her a racket. Someone else hit the shuttlecock toward her.

Noor swung.

Missed completely.

And immediately demanded another try.

That was pretty much the end of that.

Now there is a racket propped beside her bedroom door, another one mysteriously living in the back seat of the car, and a collection of battered shuttlecocks that Noor refuses to throw away because they still work.

Mostly.

She's quick, competitive, and utterly incapable of playing anything "just for fun."

Because fun, as Noor understands it, includes winning...

Her dream: To become a champion badminton player—and maybe represent Bahrain someday.

Her wonder: “How high can you go if you just keep hitting it back?”
