Badminton is a type of sport that you can play with racquets and a special high-drag projectile called a shuttlecock. It can be played by two or four players. Badminton is usually played on a rectangular court which is divided by a net in the middle. In order to get a point, you have to hit the shuttlecock with a racquet to pass it over the net. Once the shuttlecock lands on the opponent’s court, you will get a point. There might be some tricky plays when it is hard to decide which player deserves the point. There is an umpire who watches the game carefully and makes these decisions. Although it is known as an indoor sport, it is possible to play it outdoors. It has become a popular sport for many people because it does not require a lot of quipment and can be played anywhere. It is excellent for everyone because it is easy to learn and builds strength and speed.
