Badminton is one of the commonest and fastest racket sports. The equipment needed is simple and comprises badminton rackets, shuttlecock and a net. Professionally played in an indoor court as even a breeze affects the course of the shuttlecock, it is recreationally played outdoors as well. Play consists of hitting the shuttlecock back and forth across the net without letting it touch the floor or ground within the boundaries of the court. To win a match, the player/team must win at least two sets of 21 points; with the winner having a two point advantage. If a two point advantage is not reached, the first player/team to reach 30 points wins the set.
