Badminton is a racquet sport played by

either two opposing players (singles) or two

opposing pairs (doubles). Players score points by

striking a shuttlecockwith their racquet so that it

passes over the net and lands in their opponents'

half of the court. Each side may only strike the

shuttlecock once before it passes over the net. A

rally ends once the shuttlecock has struck the

floor, or if a fault has been called by either theumpire or service judge or, in their absence, the

offending player, at any time during the rally.

Badminton, feathered shuttles should have 16 feathersfixed to a cork base. The feathers should measure between

2 and 2 inches long. The featherstips should form a

circle with a diameter measuring between 2 and 2 2/3

inches. Synthetic shuttles should simulate feathers with

synthetic materials. Both feathered and synthetic shuttlesshould have a base that measures about 1 inch in

diameter. The shuttle should weigh about .16 to .19 oz.

Players should test the shuttles for speed and flight before

each match.

RAQUETS:

Badminton rackets consist of stringed

hitting surface attached to a thin shaft and a

handle. The racket must have a flat face, with auniform pattern of overlapping strings. According

to the Badminton World Federations Laws of

Badminton, the rackets stringed area should not

exceed 11 inches in length or 8 2/3 inches in

width. The rackets overall length, including thehandle, shaft, and face, may not exceed 26

inches in length. The racket must not exceed 9

inches in width at its widest point. Early badminton

racket manufacturers produced only woodenrackets, but modern manufacturers produce

rackets with frames made out of aluminum alloy,

titanium, steel, and composite materials.

NETS:

The net plays an important role in

badminton matches. The net is 1.55 meters

(5 ft &1 inch) high at the edges and

1.524 meters (5 ft) high in the centre. The

net posts are placed over the doublessidelines, even when singles is played.

*The minimum height for the ceiling above the court

is not mentioned in the Laws of Badminton.Nonetheless, a badminton court will not be suitable

if the ceiling is likely to be hit on a high serve.*

The full width of the court is

6.1 meters (20 ft), and in singles this widthis reduced to 5.18 meters (17 ft). The full

length of the court is 13.4 meters (44 ft).

The service courts are marked by a centre

line dividing the width of the court, by ashort service line at a distance of

1.98 meters (6 ft 6 inch) from the net, and

by the outer side and back boundaries. In

doubles, the service court is also marked bya long service line, which is 0.76 meters

(2 ft 6 inch) from the back boundary.

SHOES:Badminton shoesare lightweight with soles

of rubber or similar high-grip, non-marking

materials.

Compared to running shoes, badminton

shoes have little lateral support. High levels of

lateral support are useful for activities where lateral

motion is undesirable and unexpected. Badminton,however, requires powerful lateral movements.

A highly built-up lateral support will not be

able to protect the foot in badminton; instead, it will

encourage catastrophic collapse at the point wherethe shoe's support fails, and the player's ankles are

not ready for the sudden loading, which can cause

sprains.

1. Badminton World Federation:

The Badminton World Federation (BWF) is the

governing body of the sport of badminton recognized by the

International Olympic Committee (IOC). The BWF serve toregulate, promote, develop and popularize the sport of

badminton across the globe and to organize and run the highest

level international events.

2. StringsBadminton strings are thin, high performing strings in the

range of about 0.62 to 0.73 mm thickness. Thicker strings are

more durable, but many players prefer the feel of thinner strings.

String tension is normally in the range of 80 to 160 N(18 to 36 lbf).

Recreational players generally string at lower tensions than

professionals, typically between 80 and 110 N (18 and 25 lbf).

Professionals string between about 110 and 160 N (25 and 36 lbf).

Some string manufacturers measure the thickness of their strings

under tension so they are actually thicker than specified when

slack. Ashaway Micropower is actually 0.7mm but Yonex BG-66 is

about 0.72mm.
