Basic Rules:

Badminton games have a 21 points rally format. This means you don´t have to be serving to score a point. You can score a point no matter who serves.

 How do you play?
-To win a match, you have to win 2 out of 3 games.

-To win a game, you have to score 21 points.

-You score a point when your opponent can´t return the shuttle or the shuttle he/she returns falls out bounds (out of the court).

-In singles, you serve on the right service court when your score is an even number (0, 2, 4...).
-You serve on the left service court when your score is an odd number (1, 3, 5...)

-If a score becomes 20-20, the side which scores 2 consecutive points will win that game.
-If the score becomes 29-29, the side that scores the 30th point will win that game.

The court

Court for singles:

Services areas: Light blue areas,right and left.
You serve from there.

The shuttle must fall in the equivalent areas in your opponent´s court.

If it falls in the dark blue or red areas, it is a fault.

After the service, all blue areas are valid.                                                                 imagen:efbilingüe.com
The red areas are not a part of the court, so they are out of bounds. If your shuttle falls there, you lose the point.

Court in doubles:

In doubles, when playing, the shuttle can fall at any part of the court but, when serving,the shuttle can't fall at the red areas.








Service order in doubles.
