Badminton is a racquet sport played using racquets to hit a shuttlecock across a net.
Xem thêmIt went by the name Shuttlecock and Battledore.
Xem thêmPoints are scored by striking the shuttlecock with the racquet and landing it within the opposing side's half of the court.
Xem thêmEach side may only strike the shuttlecock once before it passes over the net.
Xem thêmPlay ends once the shuttlecock has struck the floor or if a fault has been called by the umpire, service judge, or (in their absence) the opposing side.
Xem thêmThe shuttlecock is a feathered or (in informal matches) plastic projectile which flies differently from the balls used in many other sports.
Xem thêmIn particular, the feathers create much higher drag, causing the shuttlecock to decelerate more rapidly.

Xem thêmThe game developed in British India from the earlier game of battledore and shuttlecock.
