Badminton It began along time ago, around 1860, in Gloucestershire, England. The daughters of the Duke of Beutfout were playing popular English game called battledore and shuttlecock in the Badminton House. To make the game more interesting, they strung up a string across the hall. The aim of this made-up game was to keep a shuttle in the air by hitting it to each other over the string. Someone suggested that it would be more fun if they hit the shuttle away, instead of passing it to the person across the string. With that suggestion, badminton was created. But there is also proof that badminton has existed since Ancient Greece, early man’s versions of the game, sometimes using a foot instead of a racquet, have been depicted on pottery as early as 3,000 years ago, in China.? questions ： 1 The word “badminton” was originally the name of _ _ _.(three words) 2 What was used in ancient China to play badminton？ Contemporary badminton While contemporary badminton first appeared in the mid-19th century, it evolved from the game battledore and shuttlecock.

Badminton racket Badminton court A match consists of three games; to win each game players must score 21 points The players strike the shuttlecock with their rackets so that it passes over the net and into the opponents half of the court. The rally ends once the shuttlecock touches the ground: every stroke must be played as a volley. In doubles, either player of a pair may hit the shuttlecock (except on service), but only a single stroke is allowed before the shuttle passes again into the opponents court (unlike volleyball). Players are awarded a point if the shuttlecock lands on or within the marked boundary of their opponents court, or if their opponents stroke fails to pass the net or lands outside the court boundary.
