The court, the racket, the shuttle — and why this is the fastest racket sport.

Rules & Scoring Basic

Rally scoring to 21, the service courts, and the faults that end rallies.

Grips & Ready Position Basic

The handshake grip, the thumb grip, and the relaxed hand that switches between them.

The Serve Basic

The low backhand serve and the high singles serve — legal, tight, repeatable.

Footwork Basics Basic

The split-step, the chasse, and the lunge — how you actually reach the shuttle.

The Clear Basic

The overhead throwing action that buys time and moves your opponent back.

Fixing badminton’s most feared corner — and knowing when to run around it.
