Before you set up your badminton set, you should familiarize yourself with the rules of badminton:
- The winner of a coin toss gets to decide which side of the court he wants to play on and who serves first.
- The shuttlecock should always be served from below the waist.
- In order to be valid, a serve must cross diagonally, or cross-court.
- Neither the players or the rackets should not touch the net at any time.
- The shuttlecock should never rest on the racket.
- A shuttlecock should never be hit by reaching over the net.
- Points are only added upon winning a rally.
- A rally is won when a player hits a shuttlecock to the opponent’s side and it lands on the ground, or when a fault is committed.
- When a shuttlecock passes over the net, a player can only hit it once. If it does not go over the net, the point goes to the opponent.
- When playing indoors, it is a fault if the shuttlecock hits the ceiling.
If you are looking to buy a badminton set, your purchase will largely be decided on how serious you are about the game of badminton. A badminton set for entertainment purposes in your backyard will be quite different than a set purchased for competitive playing of the game. Just like the difference between playing with a Nerf basketball hoop versus a Lifetime basketball hoop, there is a big difference in quality. If you are simply looking for a badminton set to use for casual fun, you can find these badminton sets in any number of retail department stores or sporting goods stores. Before purchasing, insure that the package includes a complete set.
A complete badminton set consists of at least 2 rackets, a net, stakes, and 2 shuttlecocks. A set of basic directions should also be included in the package. Most badminton sets include a handy storage case. If your set doesn’t include a storage case, it can be purchased separately. This case not only makes transport of your badminton set simple, it is convenient for storing away during the winter months, as well as keeping the equipment clean.
