In the parts of the world especially in Europe and Asia,
badminton spread fast. Europe and Asia embraced the badminton spirit and play
it with their hearts out. I am a player and also a fanatic in badminton that
dreamed of becoming a national player but unfortunately did not have it because
of the injury that I got in my left. But I still play even though it’s not my
100 percent because I love the sport very much and the badminton spirit is
within me.
As I was reminiscing the past, I came across an article. It
talks about the ten basic rules when you are a Beginner
(beginner) It talks about rules when playing the sport and the proper attitude
in the game.
For starters, badminton is played by two to 4 people for
singles and doubles game. The court is divided into two halves with a net in
the center. If you guys actually notice, badminton is not using a round ball
but instead they use a ball called a shuttlecock the one that I discuss in my
previous blog so I will not expound it much about it.
According to the article the 10 rules of badminton are as
follows:
1. A game starts with a coin toss. Whoever wins the toss gets to decide whether they would serve or receive first OR what side of the court they want to be on. The side losing the toss shall then exercise the remaining choice. But we start the game with a shuttle toss or a bato bato pick just for fun.
2. At no time during the game should the player touch the net, with his racquet or his body because that would be a fault or error thus, giving a point to the opposing team.
3. The shuttlecock should not be carried on or come to rest on the racquet. That’s what you called double like in volleyball the term “touching”
4. A player should not reach over the net to hit the shuttlecock. For that we call it “over reaching”
5. A serve must carry cross court (diagonally) to be valid. It’s on the rules.
6. During the serve, a player should not touch any of the lines of the court, until the server strikes the shuttlecock. During the serve the shuttlecock should always be hit from below the waist.
7. A point is added to a player's score as and when he wins a rally.
8. A player wins a rally when he strikes the shuttlecock and it touches the floor of the opponent's side of the court or when the opponent commits a fault. The most common type of fault is when a player fails to hit the shuttlecock over the net or it lands outside the boundary of the court.
9. Each side can strike the shuttlecock only once before it passes over the net. Once hit, a player can't strike the shuttlecock in a new movement or shot.
10. The shuttlecock hitting the ceiling, is counted as a fault.
