Overview and History
Badminton is a racket sport that is played on a court divided by a net five feet high.
The game is played with a shuttlecock (“bird”).
Can be played as singles or doubles.
The object of the game is to hit the shuttlecock over the net so that eventually the opponent is unable to return the shot.
Badminton originated in India in the mid-1800’s.
Its popularity increased when English army officers stationed in India transported the game to England.
In England it was called “badmintin”.
Eventually it spread to the United States.
General Rules
Winners of the first game must serve first in the next game.
Teams change sides after each game.
Any shuttle landing on the lines are good.
During a rally, if the shuttle touches the net and goes over it is good.

Shuttlecock The official
name for the object that the players must
hit
In a singles match, you need 1 person on each team; in doubles you need 2.
A coin toss determines who serves first. The server serves from the right side
service court to the receiver on the opposite side. If playing doubles, the serve must be served to the receiver on the diagonal side of the court.
When serving the shuttlecock, the player must make contact with it below the waist.
HOW TO PLAY
Techniques
Serve – long or short Forehand
For right handed players: A stroke hit when the shuttle is on the right side of the body.
For left handed players: A stroke hit when the shuttle is on the left side of the body.
Round the head – An overhead stroke played on the left or backhand side of the body.
Smash – A hard hit overhand stroke with a fast downward path. It is a main attacking stroke.
Drive – A powerfully hit forehand or backhand stroke which just clears the top of the net. Difficult to return due to the
shuttle’s straight line trajectory. Clear – A stroke which sends
the shuttle high over the opponents head and drops near the backcourt boundary line. It may be hit with and overhand
or underhand stroke. Can be used as offensive or
defensive play. Drop Shot – The shuttle is
stroked over the net so it drops very close to the net.
Scoring
Points are scored only by the serving side.
A point is rewarded to the serving side whenever the other side commits a fault.If a fault is committed
by the serving side, the server does not score a point and loses the serve.
Scoring continuedSingles
There are 11 points in a singles game.
When the score is 9 all, the first person to reach 9 can “set” the score to 3
If the score is tied at 10, the first person to reach 10 can “set” the score to 2.
Doubles There are 15 points in a doubles game. When the score is 13 all, the side that reached 13
first has the option of “setting” the game to 5. If the score becomes 14 all, the side that reached
14 first has the option of “setting” the game to 3. After the game has been “set”, the score is called
“love all” and the side that first scores 5 or 3 points wins the game.
The option to “set” the game must be made before the next service is delivered after the score has reached 13 all or 14 all.
HOW TO WINThe winner of the game is first side to
score 15 points; you must win by 2 points. To win a match you must win 2 out of 3
games Only the serving side can score points. Points are scored when the opponent:
hits the shuttle out of boundsfaultsfails to return the shuttlecock
