 Rules and Regulation of Badminton

Objective of the game

The object of badminton is to hit the shuttlecock over the net and have it land in the designated court areas. If your
opponent manages to return the shuttlecock then a rally occurs. If you win this rally ie. force your opponent to hit the
shuttlecock out or into the net then you win a point. You are required to win 21 points to win a set with most matches being
best of 3 sets. Points can be won on either serve.
 Players & Equipment

There are two forms of badminton, singles and doubles (it's also possible to play mixed doubles). Each player is allowed to
use a stringed racket (similar to a tennis racket but with the head being smaller) and a shuttlecock. The shuttlecock is made
up of half round ball at the bottom and a feather like material surrounding the top. You can only really hit the bottom of the
shuttlecock and as gravity comes into play will always revert the ball side facing down. You may only hit the shuttlecock
once before it either hits the ground or goes over the net.

The court measures 6.1m wide and 13/4m long. Across the middle of the rectangular court is a net which runs at 1.55m.
Running along each side of the court are two tram lines. The inside lines are used as the parameter for singles match whilst
the outside line is used for a doubles match.
 The coin toss who goes first?

Before a tournament starts, a coin is tossed. The winner of the coin toss will then get to choose
either

to serve or to receive first or

the preferred side of the court

The loser of the coin toss will then exercise the remaining choice.

However, if it is just a friendly game with your family or friends, you may wish to use rock-paper-
scissors
to determine the winner of who's going to go first.
A serve is delivered diagonally across the courts. During service, both the server and
receiver must stand at diagonally opposite sides without touching the boundary lines of the
badminton courts. During a serve, the point at which the racquet is allowed to come into
contact with the

shuttlecock must happen below the server's waist. Once the players are ready, the first
forward movement of the server's racket shall be the start of the service. The server shall
not serve before the receiver is ready. However, the receiver will be considered to have been
ready if a return of service is attempted.

BADMINTON SERVICE
 Rally

A rally starts with a serve, often continuing

with a series of shots exchanged
between opposing sides before it finally ends when a point is scored.
 Winning the Game

To win a game you must reach 21 points before your opponent.

If you do so then you will have won that set. If the scores are tied at 20-20 then it comes down to whichever player manages to get two
clear points ahead. If the points are still tied at 29-29 then the next point will decide the winner of the set.
Winning the overall game will require you to win 2 out of the 3 sets played.
 Interval and Change of Ends

When the leading score reaches 11 points, players have a 60 second interval.

A 2 minute interval between each game is allowed.

In the third game, players change ends when the leading score reaches 11 points.

 Facilities
Court dimensions

The badminton court should be 44 feet long by 22 feet wide if playing doubles, and
44 feet long by 17 feet wide for singles. If the facility is indoors, there needs to be
enough height for the shuttlecock to be able to float across the net without hitting
the ceiling. This height will vary depending on the strength of the players. The lines
marking out the court are easily distinguishable and colored white or yellow. The
lines are 40mm wide.

A court may be marked out for singles only. The back boundary lines also become
the long service lines and the posts or the strips of material representing them are
placed on the side lines. The diagonal full length of the full court is 14.366m.
 Posts

The posts are 1.55m high from the surface of the court and remain
vertical when the net is strained. The posts are placed on the double
side lines irrespective of whether singles or doubles is played.
The posts or supports must not extend into the court beyond the side
lines.

Where it is not practicable to have posts on the side lines, some

method can be used to indicate the position of the side lines where
they pass under the net, e.g. by the use of thin posts or strips of
material 40mm wide, fixed to the side lines and rising vertically to the
net cord.
 Net

A mesh net divides the badminton court into two sides. Badminton net is placed lower than volleyball
net at five feet and one inch high on the sides and five feet high in the center. The length may vary
depending on whether doubles or singles are playing, with singles reaching 17 feet and doubles
reaching 22 feet. The net is 30 inches wide with a 3-inch white tape doubled over the top. There is a
specific height from the ground assigned for a professional match of Badminton. From the ground, it
should measure neither more nor less than 5 feet. The net edges are tapped in white so that the actual
height of the net is visible for a fair game. There must be no gaps between the ends of the net and the
posts. If necessary, the full depth of the net at the ends is tied to the posts.
 Overall Court Dimensions

net.

service line is also called the Non Volley Zone.
Center Line

the Left from Right Service Court.
Side Line for Singles

Back Boundary Line and Long Service Line for Singles

Materials
FRAME STRINGED AREA
Traditionally, badminton
frames have been made out
of wood. Although still
available, wood rackets have
largely been abandoned due THROAT
to the availability of lighter,
more durable synthetic
materials such as carbon SHAFT
fiber, lightweight metal
alloys and ceramics. These
are used in most modern
badminton rackets today.
