Badminton

In no particular order:

1) Positioning of body, bird, racquet - your body should be relaxed and stable.

2) To transfer their weight from back to front using power generated from whole body ending with a wrist flick. (and a follow through across the body for underhand serve)

3) To make contact with the shuttle below your waist with the racquet head below the wrist.

4) To have the proper grip for their serve. (Forehand grip/Backhand grip). Grip should be relaxed. For maximum control, hold the top part of the grip.

5) To not lift their back foot from the ground.

6) Bonus tip - take your time and a deep breath - most bad serves are because the server has rushed himself and not focused on the task.

This is not my area of expertise or anything, but I think I can answer this question. I don't know where you live, but in the U.S., you can buy them at Wal-Mart, or Target. If that's not an option, Sports equipment stores will carry them. If all else fails, eBay would have them.

need to be physically well and have general good fitness.

For the beginning of every point, the server has two chances to get a serve in the correct service box. If on the first serve the ball is called a fault, then it is second serve. If on the second serve there is a let, then it is still the second serve, and the server may redo the serve.

There are a set of lines on each court that dictate the boundary lines. For doubles, during the serve, the boundaries are the widest at the sides and short at the back (the innermost lne), and after the serve, it's full court, meaning the boundaries expand to the all of the outermost lines. For singles, from serve to game start, the boundaries will remain the same - the sidelines are the innermost lines and the back line is the outermost line.

First, the main thing you've got to know is if your score is an even number, you always serve on the RIGHT. If it's odd, you serve on the left. There are some rules of doubles. You choose a first player and a second. The first player serves first. If you win the point, you keep serving until you lose the point. This is when there are two ways: 1. You can give it to the opponent's first player and let them serve. When they lose the point. It is the second player on your teams serve. You only get one person's worth of a serve at the start of the game. So, it immediately goes to the other person's team when you lose the serve. 2. You can give it to your second player on you team and serve. Once your team lose the serve, it's theirs and they play first player and then, second player.

The modern scoring system has a nominal winning score of 21, and a point is scored whether the winner was serving or not. (The old system stopped at 15, with only service wins scored.)

However, one side must have a 2 point lead to win, otherwise the tied game continues to a maximum of a 30-29 win.

Badminton is a game that is played with a birdie and rackets. The goal of the game is to keep the birdie going back and forth over the net without dropping it. The function of the game is both entertainment and sport.

Yes- badminton birdies can hurt you on account if someone, say your big brother, whacks the birdie into your eye, it can shrink your pupil. If you don't believe me, try it yourself. Don't worry, the shrinking of the pupil is only temporary, depending on how hard your older brother whacked it into your eye!

fitness, patience, a thick skin, willingness to keep up constantly with the rules of the game, to be reassessed and trained, and a general love of the sport.

There is currently no difference in dimensions of a badminton court between a singles or doubles game of badminton.

The court is rectangular and divided into halves by a net. Courts are almost always marked for both singles and doubles play, although the laws permit a court to be marked for singles only. The doubles court is wider than the singles court, but both are the same length. The exception, which often causes confusion to newer players is the doubles court has a shorter serve-length dimension. The full width of the court is 6.1 metres (20 ft), and in singles this width is reduced to 5.18 metres (17 ft). The full length of the court is 13.4 metres (44 ft). The service courts are marked by a centre line dividing the width of the court, by a short service line at a distance of 1.98 metres (6.5 ft) from the net, and by the outer side and back boundaries. In doubles, the service court is also marked by a long service line, which is 0.78 metres (2 ft 6 inch) from the back boundary. The net is 1.55 metres (5 ft 1 inch) high at the edges and 1.524 metres (5 ft) high in the centre. The net posts are placed over the doubles side lines, even when singles is played. There is no mention in the Laws of badminton, of a minimum height for the ceiling above the court. Nonetheless, a badminton court will not be suitable if the ceiling is likely to be hit on a high serve.

In 1873, the Duke of Beaufort held a lawn party in his country place, Badminton. A game of Poona was played on that day and became popular among the British society's elite. The new party sport became known as "the Badminton game"

An overhead hit in badminton is a hit that requires to hold the racquet somewhere above the head level in order to hit. It doesn't matter if it's off to the right or left sides, just if it's hit above your head. A powerful overhead hit is also known as a smash, which the shuttlecock is being smashed down across the net and is driven down towards the ground in the opponent's court. These are usually aimed at kill points, points that are near the boundary lines.
