Module 5: Services in Badminton

• SERVICE - is the shot that starts a play or rally.
• When the server is serving even points
(e.g., 2,4,6), he must stand in the righthand half of his service court
• When the server is serving odd points
(e.g., 1,3,5), he must stand in the lefthand half of his service court.
FOUR TYPES OF SERVICE
➔ LOW SERVE - played gently over the net to land at the front of your opponent’s service court,
near the short service line. It is important that this serve passes low over the net.
➔ HIGH SERVE- played powerfully upwards so that the shuttlecock travels very high and falls
almost vertically downwards at the back of the receiver’s service court. High serves are used
frequently in singles, but never in doubles.
➔ FLICK SERVE - is also played upwards, but much more shallowly than the high serve. The idea
is to deprive the opponent of time, forcing him to hit the shuttlecock when it’s behind his body.
➔ DRIVE SERVE - played flat and fast towards the back of the receiver’s service court, passing low
over the net. The idea is to provoke an immediate reaction, hoping that the receiver will mishit the
shuttlecock.
➔
FOUR TIPS ON HOW TO EXECUTE THESE SERVES.
1. KEEP YOUR FEET STILL - During the service, some part of both your feet must be in contact with the
ground for it to be a legal service.
2. DISGUISE YOUR SHOTS - Make sure your stroke is the same up to the point of contact with the
shuttle. This will make your service possible to predict only at the last possible second. Advanced players
can try to trick their opponent by making It deliberately look like you're leaning back and about to do a
high serve when you're really going to do a low serve.
3. OBSERVE YOUR OPPONENT’S POSITION - Is your opponent leaning towards the back already
anticipating a high serve to the rear-court? In that case, you may want to execute a low serve to catch
him off-guard. Always be aware of the position of your opponent. Try to imagine what he's expecting and
do the opposite to gain an advantage.
4. MIX UP YOUR SERVES - Using just one type of service will make you too easy to predict. Make sure
you incorporate at least two types of serves into your play. Once you've mastered the basic high and low
serves, you can learn the flick and drive serves to add more dimension to your play. In a nutshell,
executing a service well allows you to start the rally strong and dictate its flow.
Module 6: Rules and Regulation of Badminton

FOR SINGLES - In a single rally, two players will be playing with each other on opposite sides of the
court.
• THE SERVE - One of the important rules of badminton is about the serve. The serve should always be
done underarm and below the server’s waist. An overarm serve is against the basic rules of badminton
and would be considered a fault.
• FORMAT - At the start of the game, the score is (0-0). You cannot randomly choose your side as you
wish. This is one of the basic badminton rules which needs to be followed for any rally. When the server’s
score is even, the server serves from the right service court. When the server’s score is odd, the server
serves from the left service court. If the server wins a rally, the server gets a point and then serves again
from the alternate side. If the receiver wins a rally, the receiver scores a point and becomes the new
server. The server starts from the appropriate side–left if their score is odd, and right if the score is even.
According to the rules and regulations of badminton for singles, a “play by-play” tournament format is
followed everywhere, wherein all players will be paired with an opponent for the first-round matches.
These players will have one week to play their matches before advancing to the next round of the
tournament.
• SCORING SYSTEM - When the server wins the game, a point is scored and serve is retained. When
the receiver wins the rally, they earn the right to serve. However, the ability to gain a point or lose a point
will depend on the set of badminton rules and regulations. A match consists of best-of-three games to 21
points. At 20 all, the server which gains a two-point lead first wins the game. At 29 all, the side scoring
the 30th point first wins that game. A server in a new game will be the winner of the previous one, and
every time there is a serve, there will be a point scored, unless that point is replayed. A two-minute break
is allowed between each game. A 60-second break can be taken when the leading score reaches 11
points in official BWF play, the receiver scores points.
• FAULTS - In official games of BWF, faults, and errors result in a point for your opponent and you must
surrender the serve to them. A major fault as listed in the badminton rules and regulations for singles is
missing the shuttle while swinging on the serve. If you hit the shuttle but it passes underneath the net, it
can be counted as a fault. Also, when you hit the shuttle out of bounds it is a major fault as per the rules
of badminton. Lastly, touching the shuttle with your body or clothing is frowned upon amongst the basic
rules of Badminton.
FOR DOUBLES
• COIN TOSS - The basic rules and regulations of any badminton rally, either Olympics or leisurely with
your family is that the game always begins with a toss. When playing with your friends, stop fighting for
the first serve, because you must comply with the badminton rules that qualify a coin toss as an
appropriate determinant. The next first serve depends on who wins the rally. If you win the first rally, then
the next game begins with your serve.
• BOUNDARIES - A player out of a team of 2 must serve inside the white lines of the diagonally opposite
side so that the shuttlecock falls inside it. After the receiver returns the serve, the player can hit the
shuttle anywhere within the entire court area.
• FORMAT - In doubles, the scoring system can be a little confusing, since there are 2 players in a team
who can serve. A rule of thumb is that a badminton game always starts from the right-hand side. The
order of the server depends on the score odd or even, the same badminton rules and regulations for
doubles as it is for singles. For example, if both pairs have decided that you and your partner start the
game with you delivering the first serve, the score is 0-0. Since 0 is an even number, you will serve from
the right side of the court. Otherwise, the players continue to stay in their respective service courts from
where they played their previous game. From this method, alternate servers are guaranteed.
• SWITCHING SIDES ON THE COURT - In Badminton rules and regulations for doubles entail that the
players or teams will switch sides on the court during the following times: At the end of the first game, At
the end of the second game, and if a third game is to be played. During the third game if the first
player/team scores a total of 11 points.
• SCORING SYSTEM - If the serving side wins, they score a point and the same server serves again
from the alternate service court. If the receiving side wins, the receiving side scores a point. The
receiving side becomes the new serving side. To win a game of badminton, you must score points before
your opponent. Out of 3 sets of play you must win two. Every time there is a serve, there is a point
scored. According to badminton rules and regulations for doubles, the side of doubles that wins a rally
adds a point to its score. When both sides reach 20 all, the side which gains a 2-point lead first, wins that
game. When both sides reach 29 all, the side scoring the 30th point, wins that game.
• FAULTS - The shuttlecock which is either served or hit should land inside the service court. Any
shuttlecock which flew away from the white boundaries will not be counted and the opponent will score.
One side has only one attempt to retrieve the shuttle; either one of the players is going to hit the shuttle.
Even if the shuttle is accidentally touched by hand, it is still a fault. Also, an important rule of badminton
is that only the receiver can return the serve directed at Them.
MODULE 7&8: Badminton Tournament

• TOURNAMENT - a competition involving a relatively large number of competitors, all participating in a
sport or game. More specifically, the term may be used in either of two overlapping senses:
1. One or more competitions held at a single venue and concentrated into a relatively short time interval.
2. A competition involving a number of matches, each involving a subset of the competitors, with the
overall tournament winner determined based on the combined results of these individual matches. These
are common in those sports and games where each match must involve a small number of competitors:
often precisely two, as in most team sports, racket sports and combat sports, many card games and
board games, and many forms of competitive debating. Such tournaments allow large numbers to
compete.
- The purpose of a sports tournament is for athletes or teams to compete against each other in a short
period of time such as day or weekend to create a winner through a final.
