2. Badminton scoring and rules
SCORING
◦ In recent years, badminton has changed how players can score a point. In 2006,
the rules were changed to a rally point system and this now allows both players
to score a point during a rally, regardless of who served.
◦ In competitive adult matches, all games are played to a best of three games. To
win a game, a player must reach 21 points. However, if the game is tied at 20-20
(or 20-all) then you are required to win by two clear points. Unlike most sports,
however, if the score becomes 29-29 (or 29-all), the player or team to score the
30th point will win the game.

Serving Rotation (See Diagram Below)
-Player A from Team 1 serves from the right hand side of his/her court (diagram 1). If
he/she wins the point, then Player A serves from the left side of his/her court
(diagram 2). Player A continues alternating sides until he/she loses the service, after
which, Player B from Team 2 gets the serve.
-Whoever is on the right side of Team 2’s court when they obtain the serve, serves
first (diagram 3). This person continues serving in the same fashion as the earlier
servers (alternating left and right sides). This player, Player B, continues serving until
he/she loses the service (diagram 4).
-After Player B is done serving, Player C from Team 2 begins their serve (diagram 5).
-After Player C loses the serve, Team 2 gives up the serve back to Team 1, where
Player D begins to take his/her turn serving (diagram 6). After Player D ends their
turn serving, the serve returns to Player A and the whole process repeats itself.
