Badminton - Wikipedia

Badminton is a racquet sport played by either two opposing players (singles) or two opposing pairs (doubles), who take positions on opposite halves of a rectangular court that is divided by a net. Players score points by striking a shuttlecock (also known as a shuttle, bird, or birdy) with their racquet so that it passes over the net and lands in their opponents' half of the court. Each side may only strike the shuttlecock once before it passes over the net. A rally ends once the shuttlecock has struck the floor.

The shuttlecock (or shuttle) is a feathered projectile whose unique aerodynamic properties cause it to fly differently from the balls used in most racquet sports; in particular, the feathers create much higher drag, causing the shuttlecock to decelerate more rapidly than a ball. Shuttlecocks have a much higher top speed, when compared to other racquet sports. Because shuttlecock flight is affected by wind, competitive badminton is played indoors. Badminton is also played outdoors as a casual recreational activity, often as a garden or beach game.

Since 1992, badminton has been an Olympic sport with five events: men's and women's singles, men's and women's doubles, and mixed doubles, in which each pair consists of a man and a woman. At high levels of play, the sport demands excellent fitness: players require aerobic stamina, agility, strength, speed and precision. It is also a technical sport, requiring good motor coordination and the development of sophisticated racquet movements.

Basic Badminton Equipment

Uniform

There are few restrictions on the clothing for badminton matches, but players tend to wear short pants and short-sleeve shirts, with flat-soled training shoes. Older regulations – similar to those in tennis – stipulated that clothing had to be 75 per cent white, but this is no longer a requirement of the modern game.

Shuttlecock

The shuttlecock is made of a small piece of cork, coated with leather and 25 to 28cm wide. On its base are attached 16 natural or synthetic goose feathers, forming a cone. It must be a maximum of 70mm in length and 68mm in width, and should weigh between 4.74 and 5.50 grams.

Racquet

Badminton racquets – like their tennis counterparts – have progressed from simple wooden construction to the use of sophisticated lightweight materials such as aluminium, graphite and titanium. They have a round head containing a rigid mesh of synthetic strings for hitting the shuttlecock, a shaft and a non-slip grip. The head can be a maximum of 23cm wide and 29cm long, while the overall length is a maximum of 68cm. It should weigh between 85 and 100 grams.

The court

Badminton matches are played on a court that is 6.1m wide and 13.4m long, with specific markings for singles and doubles matches. The playing area for singles matches is slightly narrower than the court at a width of 5.18m, while the playing area for doubles matches uses the full court width and length. There must be clearance of 2m on all sides, and a ceiling height of 12m for high shots.

The net

The net in the middle of the court is 76cm wide, and is made of a fine mesh of dark-coloured cord, so that it can be seen through, while remaining visible at all times. At the top of the net is a white strip to clarify its position. The net is held rigid by a pair of posts either side of the court, with its top at a height of 1.55m.

Nice v15..

Guys, I need recommendation for my new racket..prefer light racket(4U,5U,6U) with slight head heavy..

More to defensive and control player..mostly play front net..

Budget around RM250 or below..

I do have a Victor TK15 for sale if you're interested.

It's 5U right? How much you willing to let go?

Mines 4U.

I already ordered 5 packed from Eric and now waiting for delivery, I can sell it to you at cost price if you want.

My cost of one packed is USD 32.60. I ordered 3 packs in yellow and two packs in red. I only want to keep two packs, so if any of you guy interested, do let me know.

Please PM me for a pack of yellow after conversion. Thanks!

Thanks, let me check if my friend is alright with red/yellow. Mine was black previously.

......x80.....x80.....

Yes, it's Yonex AC102EX, 30 pieces per pack.

Got order any RKEP grip?

sorry bro, my friend only wants black to share with me.

sejak guna arc11... every time nak smash kena frame

I try my fren VTZF2 4U, woaaaaaah.... seem like suitable for me because I like stiff racket. price.....

only stroke, not bring to actual match. scared racket kawan calar

changing from head heavy to even balance ?

guys, wanna ask sifu here, wanna get a new racket...how do u think yonex VT80 and VT 80Etune..which you prefer? for control and smash

Anyone tried the new Apacs Tantrum 200ii?

previous racket voltric

Hi,

I never use VT80 Etune but my friend who very strong in smash said VT80 Etune not suitable for him. Try VZF2 4u (if you play double) instead if you want to stick with voltric. Just my 2 cents.

hi guys.

my budget is about rm200.. question is should i get yonex/lining or the cheaper brands (apacs, fleet etc.).

maybe its just me but the cheaper brands would be better quality? considering i am paying a chunk for the brand if i get yonex/lining.

please advice

deswai... adjust ur timming and you will be find.

If quality is your main concern then the better brands do have better quality. To me the brand doesn't really matter. What matters most is the specs of the racquet.

so for the same price, will the more branded ones have better specs? or the less branded ones?

hi there , it depend on the player itself . Did you love heavy racket or lighter racket ? Personally i got yonex , apacs , protect , RSL and impact racket brand . ..

If we talk about quality of course yonex will be better among the another 5 brand i have .. But i do suggest you give a try on APACS . with your budget RM 200 to get an apacs racket will be a good choice

i've never tried heavy racket before it can give harder smashes right?

i have been using apacs for my whole life thought of trying something different the shop i went to got yonex li ning apacs fleet all under rm200 but i dunno how to choose

I think right now you should give a chance for mid heavy racket .. I don't think it give harder smash . For me., it provide a better control of the shuttlecock ..

Maybe should try li ning .. Yonex under rm200 hardly get a very good quality hehehe

better control means how? easier to spin the shuttle? or better placements?

my point exactly. i've read cheap yonex rackets not that gooding actually

ok maybe will give li ning a try la.

low end yonex are as stable as the high end ones. maybe less "tech" included in manufacturing it only. stability pawns apacs hands down, unless u're talking about high end apacs which would have similar stability.

..or maybe it's just me. i can feel the vibration of my AVPs.

Why you hand so sensitive to vibration? How to train that?

There won't be better specs. Just better materials used. The accuracy of the specs will be better with branded ones. For example Apacs do have many racquets with different specs but most of them feel the same. Yonex in the other hand do have a lot of specs as well and you can actually feel the difference.

oic, ok...saw in a buysell pages FB,,,so many plp sold their vt80e, duno why

and foot work...

Hi guys,

I have ProKennex racket aged more than 20 years (dont know exact model name).
It has full alloy frame (not alloy finish or paint).

My question is what is the max tension that this full alloy frame can hold?

Most stringers said 18lbs is max. But i see the frame is very flexible and strong. Hit wall and marble few times and survived.

Do you think full alloy frame can hold 24lbs tension?

I attached pic if anyone can recognize it.

Thanks,

guys, watching CWF playing in the SEA games... is he really using a Victor racket? looks like VZF2 to me...

At least buy some teh tarik and KFC for Ziggy87 first, he happy then will teach you.

Confirm only 18 lbs
Even if you send for restring

The person will not recommended it

This is my first time visiting this thread, I've read the cork size is huge.

Staying in Selangor now. Area USJ

Memang zf2

Thank you for reply,

Yup currently i strung it at 18lbs using BG65. Still feel better compare to my Voltric Omega strung at 22lbs.

coz i also have a carlton t-bone join racket ...

Bro, pls advise where I can buy Mizuno Caliber S Tour?

Attached thumbnail(s)

Seems 80 etune more powa~

max 23 x 24
thicker gauge string is recommended

Thanks,
Most shop I asked only dare to string up to 18lbs, only 1 shop said can do 20lbs.
Currently strung BG65 which is thicker.
So I guess depends on how skilful the stringer.

Alloy might be not as strong as carbon/graphite but it is not fragile and more flexible.
My brain said 22lbs shouldn't have a problem.

23 lbs to be safe & longevity. As long frame is symmetrically even & no warp. Enjoy the racket whilst it lasts

Hey there, to all sifu and cockers.
I wanna buy a high end racquet for my father as its for his birthday (he deserves it)

I drop down choice between li ning n90iii or n55iii.
More keen towards the n90iii. I was shocked the price was 1k on sportsclick.com.my.
Any recommended shops to buy an original li ning racquet, I'm staying at pj area.
A lot of shops in the 1st page and I'm not sure which shall I go to.

(Inb4 vzf2LD is way cheaper.. I know)

me and u different level.....

of coz u cant feel

pinjam clash test

sifu..mana ini?

https://www.facebook.com/ChengsanKaki/posts/904140816309621

But most stringers I met not dare to string higher than 18lbs.
Yeah I am enjoying it now. Even my fren like it

Beside the McD at Jalan Kuala Kangsar, this 2 weeks (16/06/15 - 30/06/15) got free trial session as soft opening, friend already booking 2 free courts for this week, will go test it this few days!

This post has been edited by Omage007: Jun 18 2015, 02:42 PM

That 1K is just list price... If not mistaken, market price should be less than RM600... Maybe can buy from online trader for cheaper price.

Yeah been scouting around. But seems like a few of Em I've missed out on.
Was hoping for like a physical shop to give such a discount. Any shop comes ur mind kind sir?

Hello does anybody know where can get Yonex 1501W rectangle bag or any Yonex rectangle bag? thankss

kedai dont have?

seems like Yonex E Lin don't carry wor

Anyone buy Victor t-shirts, shoes?
Beside Far East, any good dealers/resellers?

Anyone interested to buy the yonex 102EX super grab, RM 124 for 30 pieces.

Go tested this MBC for 2.5 hours, got 3 row of courts, each row 3 courts, so total is 9 courts, each court also got ample space to put your badminton bag and sit; a bit high class compare with Ipoh others badminton hall, then the price also high class, RM25/26 per hours, now Ipoh others rubber courts is around RM15-17/hours yet still only got 80%-90% booking rate at the peak hours night session, wonder this MBC can get 40%-50% booking rate or not.

Now the cheap MBI courts got some improvement also, all those not function fluorescent light have been replaced with new one for every court!
