 Things to Remember in Playing Badminton
• Always hit the center of shuttlecock – Hit the middle of the shuttlecock or where the rubber is.
• Always return to the middle of the court – This would give you a quick reaction and best
preparation for your next move or shot
• Hit a simple short shot – It is one technique if the position of your opponent is in or near the
back line
• Change the direction of the shuttle – I you don’t want to give your opponent a chance to get the
shuttlecock.
• Make your opponent move around – Moving your opponent in all the court areas is a strategy to
catch him/her off guard.
• Understand your opponent’s game- Try to spot his/her strengths and weaknesses
