BADMINTON

HISTORY OF BADMINTON

The game of badminton originated in Siam, China over 2,000 years ago. It was brought to England in
1870 and was played somewhat like tennis. After being played in Canada, badminton arrived in America
and has been popular since 1929. Since 1992, badminton has been an Olympic sport, with bird speeds
reaching 100 m.p.h.

The origins of badminton probably lie in shuttlecock games played more than 2,000 years ago in Greece,
China and India, but the British game was born in Gloucestershire in 1873, at Badminton, the country
estate of the Duke of Beaufort. The first official badminton club was established in 1877 in Bath.

at the line.

hand and lightly touch the palm with their left hand to indicate service fault.

Management Scoring

In badminton, the scoring system follows a best-of-three games format. Each game is played up to 21
points, and the side that reaches 21 points first wins the game. However, there must be a minimum two-
point advantage to win a game. If the score reaches 20-20, the game continues until one side achieves a
two-point lead.

Points are scored on every serve, and the winning side of each rally earns a point. The serving side can
score a point regardless of who serves. The birdie, also known as the shuttlecock, must hit the ground
within the opponent's half of the court to count as a point.
It's important to note that badminton scoring may vary in different settings or tournaments, so it's
always a good idea to familiarize yourself with the specific rules and regulations of the event you are
participating in.
