BRIEF INTRODUCTION
Badminton is indoor sports that deals with different components of fitness
like speed, power, agility and mostly coordination of the whole body movement. It
begins with the basic fundamental skills of the following:

Fundamental Skills in badminton

1. Grip: Proper Hold of the racket

a) Forehand
b) backhand
2. Basic Stances and Footwork
a) Ready stands
3. Different strokes
a) Offensive
b) Defensive
4. Service
a) Long
b) Short

1. Grip: The correct way of holding a racket is as simple as a HANDSHAKE:

www.theglobeandmail.com www.masterbadminton.com

Forehand Grip and Backhand Grip

Next thing you need to learn is the forehand and backhand grip.
Basically you’ll need to use the:
• Forehand grip to hit forehand shots.
• Backhand grip to hit backhand shots.
The forehand and backhand grip looks almost the same. There’s only one
slight difference – the placement of your fingers.

5
 Forehand Badminton Gripping Technique

www.badminton-information.com

A. B.

The backhand grip will look like you’re doing a ‘thumbs up’.
Generating power with Finger Action…

2. Basic Ready Stances

Putting your non-racquet leg a step forward and about shoulder width away
from your racquet leg. Slightly bend both knees with your weight balanced
between both legs. Slightly bend forward from the hip, keeping your back
straight, and lift your racquet up with your racquet-hand in front of you
slightly above your shoulder and the head of the racquet to be right above
your forehead.
Raise your non-racquet arm to help improve your balance.

 3. Different strokes

a) Offensive (Attack)
You’ll need to use this stance whenever you hit an overhead
forehand stroke.

To get into the attacking stance,

 Turn your body facing the side of the court.

 Place your racket leg behind; your non-racket leg forward.
 Both legs should be shoulder width apart.
 Raise your racket and non-racket arm

Hitting forehand strokes via the attacking stance enables you to hit
powerful shots. It also enables you to recover quickly after you perform your
shot

When to use?

Whenever your opponent lifts or clears the shuttle high up to you,

move towards the shuttle and adopt the attacking stance.

www.myactivesg.com

7
 b) Defensive (Retrieve)

The key to strong defense is to retrieve your opponent’s smash

via the defensive stance.

To get into the defensive stance,

 Face your body to the front of the court.

 Place your racket in front of you, around waist height, and pointing
slightly forward.
 Raise your non-racket arm for better balance.
When you’re on a defensive stance, you can cover wider angles.
For example, you’ll find it a lot
easier to retrieve smashes hit to your body, left hand side, or right hand
side.

When to use?
Whenever you hit a High Clear or perform a High Serve, move to
your base position and adopt the defensive stance. Ideally, you want to be at
your base position before your opponent hits the attacking shot.
Just in case you want more, here’s a page on badminton defense.

BADMINTON STROKES

The basic strokes are:

• Overhead Forehand Stroke
• Overhead Backhand Stroke
• Underarm Forehand Stroke
• Underarm Backhand Stroke

www.timminsbadminton.com

8
4. BADMINTON SERVE
a. Long Service

This type of serve is usually executed

when you want the shuttle to land at the
back end of the court. A good high serve
must have the shuttle dropping steeply
downwards at the back end of the court.

A high serve will prevent your opponent

from executing a strong smash. Instead,
a lob or a drop is more expected from
your opponent (unless they can do a
jump smash).

 Hold the head of the shuttlecock

with its head facing downwards so that the
shuttlecock will drop straight down.
 Stand sideways (the side of your body facing
the net) and relax your racquet arm (arm
that is holding the racquet).
 Let go of the shuttlecock and swing your
racquet arm upwards. As you do this, twist
your waist to the extent that your body faces
the net. Flick your wrist towards the
direction you want the shuttle to land (Flick
your wrist upwards, so that the shuttlecock will fly high).
 Your back leg should lift up naturally (with your toes touching the
ground).
b. Short Service

9
 The low serve is used when you want the shuttlecock to land in front
of the court (in front of your opponent).A GOOD low serve will have the
shuttlecock flying JUST ABOVE THE NET.If not, your opponent will have the
chance to dash forward and smash the shuttle down to you.A low serve,
when executed beautifully, prevents your opponent from making an
offensive shot.
IMPORTANCE OF HYDRATION IN SPORTS

Water accounts for 60 percent of your body (or about 11 gallons or 92

pounds in a 155-pound person) and is essential to every cell. drinking water
could improve students’ thinking and/or help students stay calm and quell
their anxiety — both of which could hinder their test performance. And
staying hydrated keeps your memory sharp, your mood stable and your
motivation intact. You can also think through a problem more easily.

Staying hydrated doesn’t just impact your brain, though. Here are a few
ways water benefits your body’s health.
1. Water helps prevent dry mouth.
Water keeps your throat and lips moist and prevents your mouth from
feeling dry. Dry mouth can cause bad breath and/or an unpleasant taste–
and can even promote cavities.
2. Water promotes cardiovascular health.
Dehydration lowers your blood volume, so your heart must work harder to
pump the reduced amount of blood and get enough oxygen to your cells,
which makes everyday activities like walking up stairs–as well as exercise–
more difficult.
3. Water keeps your body cool.
Your body releases heat by expanding blood vessels close to the skin’s
surface (this is why your face gets red during exercise), resulting in more
blood flow and more heat dissipated into the air. When you’re dehydrated,
however, it takes a higher environmental temperature to trigger blood
vessels to widen, so you stay hotter.
4. Water helps muscles and joints work better.
When you’re well hydrated, the water inside and outside the cells of
contracting muscles provides adequate nutrients and removes waste
efficiently so you perform better. Water is also important for lubricating
joints. Contrary to popular belief, muscle cramps do not appear to be related

10
to dehydration, but, instead, to muscle fatigue, according to Sam
Cheuvront, Ph.D., an exercise physiologist.
5. Water keeps skin supple.
When a person is severely dehydrated, skin is less elastic. This is different
than dry skin, which is usually the result of soap, hot water and exposure to
dry air. And, no, unfortunately, drinking lots of water won’t prevent
wrinkles.
6. Water helps cleanse your body — inside and out.
Your kidneys need water to filter waste from the blood and excrete it in
urine. Keeping hydrated may also help prevent urinary tract infections and
kidney stones. If you are severely dehydrated, your kidneys may stop
working, causing toxins to build up in your body.

Dehydration occurs when you use or lose more fluid than you take in, and
your body doesn't have enough water and other fluids to carry out its
normal functions. If you don't replace lost fluids, you will get dehydrated.

Hypothermia is a medical emergency that occurs when your body loses

heat faster than it can produce heat, causing a dangerously low body
temperature. Normal body temperature is around 98.6 F (37
C). Hypothermia (hi-poe-THUR-me-uh) occurs as your body temperature
falls below 95 F (35 C).

Hyperthermia refers to a group of heat-related conditions characterized by

an abnormally high body temperature — in other words, the opposite of
hypothermia. The condition occurs when the body's heat-regulation system
becomes overwhelmed by outside factors, causing a person's internal
temperature to rise.
