PE003 – Individual and Dual
Sports
BADMINTON
Dr. Teejay D. Panganiban, LPT, MPES, DEM
Course Professor
✔BADMINTON is a racket sport played by either two
opposing players (singles) or two opposing pairs
(doubles).
✔Competitive badminton is best played indoors
because shuttlecock flight is affected by wind. But
badminton, as a casual recreational activity, can
also be played outdoors.
✔Badminton has been an Olympic sport since 1992
(Barcelona).
Nature of the Game
✔The origins of the game, badminton, date back at
least 2,000 years to the game of battledore and
shuttlecock played in ancient Greece, China and
India, where a form of the game called “poona”
was played.
✔In 1860s, British army officers posted to India
became interested in “Poona” and took the game
home to England, where the rules of badminton
were set out.
History of Badminton
✔This new sport was definitively launched in 1873 at
the Badminton House in Gloucestershire, the
ancestral home of the Duke of Beaufort, where
he introduced the sport to his guests.
✔It was then known as “The Game of Badminton”
for a number of years, until the name was
shortened to BADMINTON.
✔Gloucestershire is now the base for the
International Badminton Federation.
Henry Charles Fitzroy
Somerset
Badminton House, Gloucestershire,
England
✔The IBF was formed in 1934
The first big IBF tournament was the Thomas Cup (men’s
world team championships) in 1948
✔The Uber Cup (ladies’ team)
The World Cup invitational event started in 1981 and
was organized by the International Management
Group (IMG)
Court – The area of play, as defined by the outer
boundary lines, 44 x 17 ft (singles) and 44 x 20 ft (doubles).
Net – It is made of fine cord, dark in color and of an even
thickness, with a mesh. 760 mm in depth and at least 6.1
m in width, 1.524 m high at the center of the court; 1.55 m
over the side lines for doubles
Post – These are used to hold the net in place, 1.55 m in
height
Facilities and
Equipment
Racket – Badminton rackets are light,
with top quality rackets weighting
between 79 and 91 grams including
the strings. The grip of the racket is
very important. The choice of grip
allows a player to increase the
thickness of his racket handle and
choose a comfortable surface to
hold.
Shuttlecock – A shuttlecock (shuttle, birdie) is a high-drag
projectile, with an open conical shape: the cone is
formed from sixteen overlapping feathers embedded
into a rounded cork base. The cork is covered with thin
leather or synthetic material.
✔Synthetic shuttles (nylon) are often used by
recreational players to reduce their costs as feathered
shuttles break easily.

to hit shots that are at the forehand
side of your body and around the head
shots
Backhand Grip – using a forehand
grip, rotate the hand slightly so the
thumb is along and parallel to the wide
side of the handle.

front service line. The racket is swung forward with little
follow-through.
