RULES AND 4 REGULATIONS GENERAL A badminton match is played to the best of three games. A coin toss or spinning of the racket determines first serve or choice of side. The object of a badminton game is to hit the badminton shuttlecock over the badminton net and onto the ground within bounds on your opponent's side of the court. A rally can also be lost by hitting the shuttle into the badminton net, out of bounds, before it crosses the net to your side, or if it strikes your clothing or body rather than your badminton racket.

It is divided by the middle by a net supported by 2 posts (metal bars) of 1’55m height. In single games the width is reduced 42cm at each side of the court.

RULES AND 5 REGULATIONS THE SHUTTLECOCK It is a semi spherical cork with about 14 or 16 goose feathers stabbed into it. The feathers are 6 cm long and the base diameter is 2.9 cm. It can also be made of plastic. The base is covered with a thin layer of white leather or something similar.Its main feature is the acceleration changes: the speed of the shuttlecock after being hit can go from 200 km/h to a complete stop in a few meters. THE RACKET It is made of carbon fiber. This makes it lighter and more resistant than older models made of wood or metal. Its maximum length is 68cm and the head maximum width is 23cm. The grip: the basic grip is called forehand grip. To use this grip the head must be perpendicular to the ground. From this position, grab the handle by wrapping your hand around it and put your thumb between your index and your middle finger. 6.1 m 1.55 m/ 5 ft. 1 in 0.76 m It consists of a dark or black 1.524 m mesh and with a white band of 7.5 cm on the upper part.It is THE NET 1.55 m height and 6.10 m width (double court width).

RULES AND 6 REGULATIONS SCORING SYSTEM Every time you win a rally, you get a point. The winner of a badminton match is the player(s) who win two games out of three. A game is won by being the first to reach 11, 15 or 21 points. Each game must be won by at least two points and a number of systems are available for extending a game where a score of 10-10, 14-14 or 20-20 has been reached. The server is not allowed to serve until his opponent is ready. If the opponent attempts to return service, he is deemed to have been ready. Both the server and the opponent receiving the serve are required to stand so that some part of both feet remains in contact with the surface of the court while in a stationary position until the service has been delivered. Every time there is a serve – there is a point scored. • The side winning a rally adds a point to its score. At 20 all, the side which gains a 2 point lead first, wins that game. At 29 all, the side scoring the 30th point, wins that game. When you’re saying the score, always say the server’s score first. The side winning a game serves first in the next game • If players commit an error in the service court, the error is corrected when the mistake is discovered. SERVICE RULES A correct service is when a player hits the shuttlecock with their racket over the net to the opponent’s side without the shuttle getting stuck in the net or exceeding the boundaries of the badminton court with some part of their feet in contact with the court surface. If the server’s shuttle touches the net or goes out of bounds of the court, the receiving player/side wins the point.The shaft and head of the server’s racket should point downwards when the shuttle is hit during a serve and the server’s racket should initially hit the shuttle on its base. SINGLES The player who serves first in any game shall do so from the right side of the service court on which they begin the match. If the server has won an even number of points during a game, then they shall serve from the right side of the service court for the subsequent point. In case the server has won an odd number of points during a game, then he/she serves from the left side of the service court for the subsequent point.

RULES AND 7 REGULATIONS DOUBLES The receiver must stand on the alternate service court and the pair who wins the point shall become the server for the subsequent point. The server and receiver have to stand on diagonally opposite sides of the badminton court. TYPES OF SERVES LOW This low serve is almost a gentle tap over the net with the shuttle, with the HIGH aim of flying just over the net, yet falling just over the front line of his service FLICK court. It must not be too high or predictable, otherwise it would be easy for DRIVE your opponent to do an outright smash or net kill The high serve is a powerful strike upwards with the shuttle, that aims to travel a great distance upwards and fall deep at the rear end of the court. Although it is a strong serve and the popular choice of beginner players, its a serve that isn't so easy to disguise especially since you're using a forehand grip. Your opponent will already expect the shuttlecock to land at the back of the court. This flick serve is also played upwards but at a much lesser altitude. It is most common for players to use their backhand to execute the flick serve and the trajectory is lower as this grip has less power. The whole point of the backhand flick serve is deception, by mixing your serves up and making it look like you're doing a low serve. For this reason, serving with your backhand is thus very popular with competitive players. This is an attacking serve that is used by top badminton players like Lin Dan. The idea is to hit the shuttle directly at your opponent, limiting their return options and catching them off guard, winning you easy points. It's a good change of pace but it is also risky as if your opponent is prepared, he could just smash the shuttlecock back at you.

RULES AND 8 REGULATIONS VIOLATIONS/FAULTS If the shuttle lands outside the boundaries of the court, passes through or under the net, fail to pass the net, touches the ceiling or side walls, touches the person or dress of a player or touches any other object or person. If the initial point of contact with the shuttle is not on the striker's side of the net. (The striker may, however, follow the shuttle over the net with the racket in the course of a stroke.) If a player touches the net or its supports with racket, person or dress, invades an opponent's court over the net with racket or person except as permitted. If a player invades an opponent's court under the net with racket or person such that an opponent is obstructed or distracted or obstructs an opponent, that is prevents an opponent from making a legal stroke where the shuttle is followed over the net. If a player deliberately distracts an opponent by any action such as shouting or making gestures. If the shuttle is caught and held on the racket and then slung during the execution of a stroke. If the shuttle is hit twice in succession by the same player with two strokes. If the shuttle is hit by a player and the player's partner successively or touches a player's racket and continues towards the back of that player's court. If a player is guilty of flagrant, repeated or persistent offences under Law of Continuous Play, Misconduct, Penalties. If, on service, the shuttle is caught on the net and remains suspended on top, or, on service, after passing over the net is caught in the net. LETS 'Let' is called by the umpire, or by a player (if there is no umpire), to halt play. A 'let' may be given for any unforeseen or accidental occurrence. The rules of badminton consider the following as 'lets': If a shuttle is caught in the net and remains suspended on top or, after passing over the net, is caught in the net, it shall be a 'let' except on service. If, during service, the receiver and server are both faulted at the same time, it shall be a 'let'. If the server serves before the receiver is ready, it shall be a 'let'. If, during play, the shuttle disintegrates and the base completely separates from the rest of the shuttle, is shall be a 'let'. If a line judge is unsighted and the umpire is unable to make a decision, it shall be a 'let'. A 'let' may occur following a service court error. When a 'let' occurs, the play since the last service shall not count and the player who served shall serve again, except where in situations where the Law of Service Court Errors is applicable.

This position makes shot performed during the game with a forehand grip. They are done it a breeze to hit powerful overhand shots. on the racket side of a body. SERVICES DROP SHOT A Badminton Serve is how the shuttle is put into The Badminton Drop Shot is a play. Serves are different in badminton for singles and strategically soft hit that returns the doubles play. They can be executed so the opponent shuttlecock within the opponent's forecourt cannot smash the shuttle, or they can be used to keep area. Drop shots are commonly used to score the opponent on the move. A Badminton Serve can be on your opponent when they are positioned performed using two different methods, a high serve deep in their backcourt and would be unable and a low serve. A high serve is executed when the to react to a shallow shot that is positioned player wants the shuttle to land at the back end of the close to the net. court, and a low serve is used when the player wants the shuttle to land in front of the court, in front of the opponent.

11 OVERHEAD FUNDAMENTAL DEFENSIVE CLEAR SKILLS It’s a defensive shot hit from your baseline to your opponent’s baseline. BASIC OTHERS: FOOTWORK Net kill You have to continually adjust your When executing the net kill, the player speed according to the speed of the shuttlecock. The players have limited will block the shuttlecock and deflect it space to move around, so good towards the ground. This move is often footwork is imperative.With proper used to end a rally. footwork, you will be able to conserve energy and face shots coming toward Underhand Forehand you from any direction. The underhand forehand shot is FOREHAND OVER another relatively simple skill to learn. HEAD DRIVE OR CLEAR Unlike the overhead shot, you will strike the shuttlecock while it is at the same When it comes to any racket sport, level as your waist or lower. This means the forehand shot is by far the easiest that you will not have to reach over your and simplest to perform. Most players head to return a pass. use overhead forehand shots when serving - in the process, they will start Underhand Backhand by throwing the shuttlecock into the The underhand backhand is also very air. Then, as it falls back down, the player will pull their arm behind their similar to its overhead alternative. The head (hence the name) and strike the only difference is that you would strike shuttlecock once it is a few inches the shuttlecock while it is at the same above eye level. level as your waist or lower. Again, this makes the shot much easier, as you will not have to reach over your head on the weaker side of your body.

12 TECHNICAL AND TACTICAL SKILLS Technical Skills in Badminton 1.The Ready Stance - it is a position in badminton wherein the right stance is readied by the player in order to minimize the amount of movements that would be needed in order to hit the shuttlecock 2.Forehand and Backhand Grip - these are the two basic grips that new players must familiarize themselves with. By doing either of these, it would be much easier for players to control their shots 3.Footwork - it is a necessary skill in order to play badminton. A proper footwalk would help in mastering the sports 4.Strokes - initially, there are four strokes that the player can use. 5.Underarm Backhand Serve - it is a type of serve that beginners can use. TACTICAL SKILLS Applying pressure on hitting the shuttlecock Position yourself in the central base It would be easier to hit the shuttlecock on the corners of the court Deceive your opponents during singles match You have to make a situation in which your opponent faces difficulty to reach and hit the shuttle back to you; subsequently you may win a point. It will be possible when you hit the shuttle from the corner of the playing area, keeping in mind the position of your opponent. If he is near the net, hit a powerful overhead shot that goes in the back of the court. And, if he is in the back of the court, play a delicate net shot that just crosses the net and falls in front of your opponent. You must have the knowledge of each and every part of the service court so that you can play effectively and take an ideal position; in the center of the court. Serving tactics are also important. They are used to serve the shuttle, in a way, that makes the serve fairly difficult for an opponent to reply.

13 HOW TO OFFICIATE BADMINTON ? Badminton is one of the best recreational sports nowadays. It is very economical and can be played by people of all ages and varying skills and levels. It enjoyable game for beginners but at the same time, can be an exciting game that requires stamina, speed, cleverness, and agility. In playing badminton, game officials are needed to be in full control of the match. Good officiating brings out the best in the playing ability of each player, while poor officiating can easily ruin the game. Umpire: The ‘main judge’ for the particular badminton game. He/she has the power to overrule any decisions made by the service judge or line judges. The umpire is the person ensuring that the badminton game is run smoothly and prevent any players from delaying the game play. Whenever a player requests to change the shuttle, the umpire will need to approve that the change could be made. The umpire also looks out for faults committed around the net area such as whether a player touched the net when returning the shuttle. Besides, the umpire is responsible to make a ‘fault’ call when the shuttle touches the player or the players’ attires except for the badminton racket. In badminton, it will be a fault/foul to a player if the shuttle touches any part of that player’s body or attire. Service Judge: The service judge is responsible in making a ‘service fault’ call and to provide shuttles to the players. Line Judges: Line judges sit beside the badminton court (right in front of every in/out lines) to determine whether the shuttle is inside or outside the boundaries of the court. Their calls are usually very subjective and are often controversial. Umpire hand signals Misconduct = Raising his right hand straight above his/her head four line judges (two for each side of the court positioned at the baseline) who indicate whether a shuttlecock landed 'in' or 'out' on the line(s) assigned.
