 Lesson
Badminton
1
In physical education, increasing MVPA has the greatest potential for increasing health benefits for
most students as it generates more energy expenditure; contributes to obesity prevention and
muscular and bone development; reduces anxiety and stress; improves self-esteem, mood and
concentration; and reduces the risk of chronic disease.

This lesson will lead you to the importance of engaging in moderate to vigorous physical activities
(MVPAs) for at least 60 minutes most days of the week in a variety of settings in-and-out of the
school in order to establish the good quality of life

What’s New
Did You Know?
The origin of the game badminton is complex and unclear. However, the general assumption,
badminton has its origins in ancient civilizations in Europe and Asia. The ancient game known as
battledore (bat or paddle) and shuttlecock probably originated more than 2000 years ago.
In the 1600s battledore and shuttlecock was an upper-class pastime in England and many
European countries. Battledore and shuttlecock were simply two people hitting a shuttlecock
backwards and forwards with a simple bat as many times as they could without allowing it to hit
the ground.
Modern badminton can be traced to mid-19th century British India. It was created by British
military officers stationed there. A net was added to the traditional English game of battledore and
shuttlecock. As it was popular in the British garrison town of Poona, the game came to be known as
"Poona" or "Poonai" Initially, woolen balls were preferred by the upper classes in windy or wet
conditions, but ultimately shuttlecocks took over the role of a "ball." This game was taken by
retired officers who got back to England. It was introduced as a game for the guests of the Duke of
Beaufort at his stately home 'Badminton' in Gloucestershire, England where it became popular.
Hence, the origin of the name "Badminton."
In March 1898, the first Open Tournament was held at Guildford and the first 'All England'
Championships were held the following year.
What is It
Badminton
A racket sport played indoors on a court by two opposing players (singles) or two opposing pairs
of players (doubles), in which a shuttlecock is volleyed over a net and the competitions are
presided by an umpire in British English and a referee in American English.

1. Game

The five main categories of badminton play are men’s singles, women’s singles, men’s doubles,
women’s doubles and mixed doubles. To play badminton, opposing singles players or doubles
teams stand on either side of a badminton net. Players rally one shuttlecock over the net using a
racket. Rally is the badminton term for volleying a shuttlecock across the net until it hits the
ground. The goal is to land the shuttlecock in the marked boundaries on the opposing side of the
net. One point is earned by the side that wins the rally. A badminton game scores to 21 points.
Badminton matches are the best-of-three games. At the beginning of the badminton game and
whenever the server’s score is an even number, servers serve the shuttle over the net to the
opposing player from the right side of the court. Servers serve the shuttle over the net from the left
side of the court when their score is an odd number. Servers serve from the opposite side of their
court when they win a rally and a point. Doubles badminton play observe the same serving rules as
singles badminton play with the exception of passing the serve. Serves pass consecutively to players
opposite each other on the badminton court.

2. Court

The court is a 13.40m x 5.18m rectangle for singles and a 13.40m x 6.10m rectangle for doubles.
The same court is used for Singles and Doubles contests; only the line marks differ. The court is
divided into two equal parts by a net attached to the posts at a height of 1.55m.
3. Net

A badminton net is 2 1/2-feet deep and is raised 5 feet high across the center of
the badminton court, over the net line. Often made from vinyl mesh, most nets
have a leather or cotton top.

4. Shuttles

The shuttlecock is made of a semi-

spherical piece of cork coated with
leather. On it are attached 16 real goose
feathers forming a cone. A shuttlecock
must weigh between 4.74g and 5.5g.

5. Rackets

Badminton rackets are made from lightweight materials that are known for
durability such as aluminum, steel and carbon fiber. The overall length limit of
a badminton racket is 26.77 inches. Standard badminton rackets must not be
wider than 9.06 inches. The strings on the racket must range from .03 inches
thick. The overall weight of the racket cannot exceed 3.2 oz.
 6. Badminton Uniform

Badminton athletes wear shorts/skirts

and short sleeved shirts and any
combination of colors is permissible. In
doubles both players must wear the same
clothing, which has their name on the
back of the shirts. Shoes are usually flat
but there are no official standards or
specifications.

Badminton, like the other sports, is an activity that requires physical actions at a certain level of
skill and ability where players compete under a set of rules. Whereas, it is necessary to learn the
basic of badminton in order to properly play the game. Nonetheless, understanding how the game is
played is most essential. Basic badminton skills and rules are as follows.

1. Grip

You will want to learn how to hold your racket with the forehand to hit shuttles on that side of your
body and backhand to hit on the opposite side. You will use a forehand grip to hit above your head
as well. You can hit the shuttle using a backhand grip with your elbow up or down. It is good to
practice hitting with these grips to improve your skills.

Basic Ways of Gripping the Racket

A. Forehand

This grip is used to hit shots that

are on the hand facing in the
direction of the stroke and around
the head shots.

B. Backhand Grip

This grip is used to hit shots that

are on back of the hand facing in
the direction of the stroke, with
the arm across the body.

2. Footwork

Your footwork can bring more success to your game if you learn the basics of moving on the
court and practice them. Your ready position should include standing in the center of the
court if you are playing singles and bending your knees with your body relaxed and waiting
for play. Move your feet by shuffling them or gliding from left to right and stepping or lunging
forward. To move backward, go fast enough that you get behind the shuttle to hit it hard
enough.
 3. Serving Fundamental Skills
Four types of badminton serves include: 1) the high serve to move your opponent to the back of his
or her side of the court; 2) the low serve to make your opponent have to get under the shuttle; 3)
the flick serve that is used occasionally to confuse your opponent who thinks you are going to hit a
low serve; and, 4) the drive serve where you hit the shuttle low, fast and to the rear of the receiver's
court as a strategy move that will result in a missed hit.
4. Scoring
A match is the best of three games. The winner of each game is the first player(s) to reach 21, by
two clear points. At 20-all, the side which scores two consecutive points shall win that game. At 29-
all, the side scoring the 30th point shall win that game. A point is scored by winning a rally.
Points are scored regardless of who is serving and the side who wins the point serves the next
point. The side winning a game serves first in the next game. Simple badminton rules include a
scoring system where you play until you score 21 points.
5. Singles
To begin a singles game of badminton you will serve from the right side of the court. After the initial
serve, the position depends on the server's score. If your score is even, you serve from the right and
if it is odd you serve from the left. In addition, if the server wins the rally he will continue to serve,
and if the receiver wins, the next serve goes to the receiver.
6. Doubles
In doubles play, serving goes back and forth between partners. The serving side is the same as in
singles play in terms of even score serves from right and odd score from left. The serving partner
alternates court sides if she continues to score during a rally and will serve until a rally is lost. When
the serve comes back to the team the partner will serve next.

7. Sports Terminologies

 Ace: An outright point from a serve that is not even touched by the receiver.
 Lift: A shot played from beneath the height of the net, normally played high to
the back of the court.
 Smash: A hard, overhead shot, hit directly down into the opposition’s
court.
 Clear: A shot hit deep into the opponent’s court.

8. Additional Rules

The Badminton World Federation rules state that there is a 60-second interval when the
winning team scores the 11th point. In addition, two-minute intervals are taken between
games. If a match reaches three games, there is a change of ends when the winning side
scores 11 points.
