BAB I
INTRODUCTION

A. Background Behind

Badminton has a long and surprising history considering its introduction relatively quickly as
a sport that is part of the Olympics. Badminton was discovered a long time ago, at least 2000 years in
the game battledore and shuttlecock which have been played in India, Greece and China. Badminton
or badminton takes its name from Badminton House in Gloucestershire, home of the Duke of
Beaufort, where the sport is played. Coincidentally, Gloucestershire is now the base for the
International Badminton Federation.

The game Battledore was originally played with a shuttlecock which was hit using a wooden
bat which was carried out by two people by hitting it forward and backward for a long time.
Battledore was played by many people from children to adults about 2000 years ago and was played
in China, Japan, India, Greece and Thailand. Apart from using a wooden bat, this game is also played
using ankles. In the Middle Ages in England found a wood carving which contained a picture of
someone playing by kicking a shuttlecock with their feet.

The interest of the shuttlecock game is that when it is hit up after falling down the shuttlecock
will slow down, so that it is possible to be chased and hit again. The history of the shuttlecock can be
formed like a head that has an oval shape with a slightly flat top and lots of goose feathers stuck,
numbering sixteen. There are those who argue that the first time a few feathers stuck to the
shuttlecock's head was when someone sat pensively and accidentally stuck a quill into the cork used
for a bottle cap that resembled a shuttlecock.

DISCUSSION

Definition of Badminton

Badminton or badminton is a sport that is played by two people or two pairs who take
opposite positions on the part of the field that is bounded by a net. Badminton is a game that is played
using a racket to hit the shuttlecock, which is hit towards the opponent (back and forth) over the net,
and the direction of the shuttlecock must be in the opponent's badminton court line..

According to Subarjah (2000: 13) Badminton game is a game whose technique is played by a
player or athlete against one other athlete or two players against two other players. To become a
badminton athlete, players must master all or various basic techniques in playing badminton properly.

In the opinion of Tony Grice (1996: 1), a sport that is quite well-known in Indonesia is
badminton (badminton). This sport has attracted a lot of public attention, from teenagers to even
adults who play indoors and outdoors as recreation and as a place of competition. Badminton games
are usually played with various variations of strokes, from slow strokes to very fast strokes
accompanied by various feints.

History of Badminton

Before badminton was included in the sports that were tested in the 1972 Olympics,
badminton games were created and introduced from various countries with different game names but
similar or similar to badminton games, these countries include:

1. During the 5th century, the Chinese played a sport called ti jian zi. The direct translation of the
word 'ti jian zi' kicks a tool or object like a space shuttle. The ti jian zi game is a form of game using
chicken feathers resembling a shuttlecock which is played by being kicked up using the foot with the
aim of keeping or maintaining as long as possible so that the shuttlecock does not fall or touch the
ground. The game is the beginning of the creation of the game
2. England in the sixteenth century a game called Battledores and Shuttlecocks. Battledores are taken
from the name of a paddle or stick that is used as a hitting tool to keep the shuttlecocks always above
and prevent the shuttlecocks from touching the ground.

3. India in 1860 a popular game called Poona. Poona is taken from the name of the city in India,
namely Pune. Djatmiko Irawan, and Asmadi (2004) stated that the origin of badminton was from
India. Some of the British soldiers who were serving in India at that time were on duty in India and
the game was already popular in Indian society, known as Poona. In India, Pune is the second largest
state in Maharashtra after Mumbai. In the 19th century the city of Pune was a city where the game of
badminton was formed which was initiated by British army troops. The game is equipped with a net
and the nature of the game is face to face or competition.

Development of Badminton

a. Internasional

The development of badminton in Europe at that time actually received a welcome in


Denmark. Badminton is a special sport in that country. Made as a winter game with activities in a
building with adequate facilities. In 1939 Denmark had its first All England champion, Tage Mansen
and produced another world class player. From Denmark, then spread to Norway and Sweden. In the
1920s badminton penetrated Northern Europe, North America and Asia, including Malaysia (then
known as Malaya) and Indonesia. In 1935 badminton received a warm welcome in the United States,
first stopping in New York and entering Hollywood until it was filmed under the title Good
Badminton.

The International Badminton Federation (IBF), which is now BWF, is trying to develop the
sport of badminton by holding various championships which are participated in by players from its
member countries. Badminton championships where participants can represent each respective
country, IBF organizes championships called the Thomas Cup and Uber Cup. Thomas Cup (Thomas
Cup) is a men's team badminton championship whose participants represent their country. Meanwhile,
the Uber Cup is a women's team badminton championship whose participants represent the name of
their country. Starting in 1984, the two prestigious championships were held simultaneously every
two years. Previously, these two tournaments were held at different times every three years (Aksan,
2013).

The name of the Thomas Cup championship comes from the name of Sir George Alan
Thomas, former IBF president and badminton player from England who donated the trophy in 1939.
The Thomas Cup is the oldest championship held by the IBF. The first championship was held in
1948-1949 followed by 10 countries, including: Canada, Denmark, England, France, Ireland, Bosnia,
United States, India, Malaya and Sweden. Throughout the history of holding the Thomas Cup for
more than 60 years, only five countries have won the title, namely: China, Malaysia, Indonesia, Japan
and Denmark, which won for the first time in 2016.

The uber cup championship is named after Betty Uber, a former badminton player from
England. Uber Cup was first held in 1956 and was participated by 11 countries. Throughout its history
only five countries have ever won, namely: China, the United States, Japan, Indonesia and South
Korea. Each team participating in the Uber Cup consists of five people/pairs (consisting of 3 singles
and 2 doubles).

Besides the Thomas Cup and Uber Cup, there is another team badminton championship called
the Sudirman Cup, which is taken from the name of Indonesian badminton figure Dick Sudirman, one
of the founders of PBSI and also known as the father of badminton in Indonesia. This championship
competes in the mixed team category consisting of men's singles, women's singles, men's doubles,
women's doubles and mixed doubles. This championship is held every two years. Throughout history,
only six countries have made it to the semifinals of all championships, namely: Indonesia, South
Korea, England, Malaysia, China and Denmark.

Even though the IBF has been regularly organizing championship agendas, both at local and
international levels, until the late 1980s badminton was not included in the sports that were competed
in the Olympic world sporting events. Badminton was competed in the Olympics with the status of an
exhibition sport in 1988 in Seoul, South Korea. It was only at the holding of the next Olympics,
namely the 1992 Olympics in Barcelona, that Spanish badminton began to be competed officially as
an Olympic branch, and even then only men's singles and women's singles. Meanwhile, men's
doubles, women's doubles and mixed doubles began to be competed in the next Olympics, namely in
1996 in Atlanta, United States (Aksan, 2013).

b. Indonesia

The development of badminton in Indonesia cannot be separated from the development of


other sports. The establishment of the main soccer organization, the Indonesian Football Association
(PSSI), has had a significant impact on the development of other sports in Indonesia. The formation of
PSSI aims to be a form of the Indonesian people's struggle in the field of sports as well as one of the
triggers for the birth of nationalism to escape colonialism. Suhardinata, (1997) stated that in 1938 a
body was formed that could accommodate Indonesian sports activities. The body is named the
Indonesian Sports Association (ISI). The initiators for the formation of this organization were PSSI,
Pelti (Indonesian Tennis Lawn Association), and PBSI (All-Indonesia Design Ball Association). Two
years after Indonesia's independence, sports figures gathered again to discuss the future of Indonesian
sports. To be precise, on 18-20 January 1947 the Indonesian sports congress took place in Solo. From
that meeting gave birth to a national sports body called the Association of Sports of the Republic of
Indonesia (PORI).

The formation of the two sports organizations aims to have a special institution that handles
Indonesian sports for domestic affairs (PORI) and preparations for Indonesia's participation in
international sports activities. This is done so that Indonesia's participation in various sports activities
will receive recognition from world countries. The formation of the two sports organizations can be
called a new era of sports after Indonesian independence. PORI is divided into 11 sports, namely (1)
Football, (2) Basketball, (3) Basketball, (3) Archery, (4) Archery, (5) Tennis, (6) Pencak Silat, (7)
Swimming, (8) Fencing, (9) Hokey, (10) Shooting, and (11) Badminton.

The efforts made by Sudirman, the leadership of the Jakarta Branch of PORI Badminton and
his friends, through letter intermediaries, essentially invited them to form a badminton union. At the
meeting on May 5, 1951 in Bandung, the Indonesian Badminton Association (PBSI) was born and the
meeting was recorded as the first PBSI congress. The following is the logo and the meaning of the
PBSI symbol:

After the formation of management at the central level, the achievements of Indonesian
badminton players have shown proud achievements at the international level. In the Thomas Cup
championship, Indonesia listed itself as the country that won the most trophies that symbolized the
supremacy of the world men's team badminton. Indonesia's first participation in the 1958 Thomas Cup
set new records and records for global badminton by immediately hoisting red and white in the elite
ranks of world badminton, arriving as beginners, returning home with a championship title.

Indonesia's victory in the 1958 Thomas Cup, with a team of players filled by Ferry
Sonneville, Tan Joe Hok, Eddy Jusuf, Lie Po Djian, Njoo Kiem Bie, and Tan King Gwan. The reserve
players consisted of Tan Thiam Beng and Thio Djoe Jen, with the team manager led by Raden Jusuf,
contributing his first win in an international championship. This was the moment and the initial
milestone of Indonesia's achievements which continued into other world championships, such as the
Uber Cup, Super Series Championship, Super Series Premier Championship, Olympics, Asian
Games, and Sea Games (Djatmiko, 2004).

After winning for the 1958 Thomas Cup team, Tan Joe Hok's achievements began to increase.
In the US Open championships (1959 and 1960), Canadian Open (1959 and 1960), Tan Joe Hok won
the two tournaments consecutively. Even in the 1959 All England Tan Joe Hok won, beating his own
colleague Ferry Sonneville in the final. For the record, these two Indonesian badminton players are
the first to occupy the first and second seeds in the All England. This was repeated in 1976 with a
different generation, namely Rudi Hartono and Liem Swi King who faced each other in the final. The
number of victories that affixed, Tan Joe Hok at that time was given the title as "Giant Slayer". Even
Tan Joe Hok is also known as the first Indonesian to win the All England.

At the All England championship in 1968, a new champion emerged from Indonesia, namely
Rudi Hartono from the men's singles. The badminton player born in Surabaya, East Java, didn't just
win when she made her first appearance at the All England. Rudy Hartono's fantastic achievements
are even more complete by becoming the youngest trophy winner, at 18 years and 7 months. Since
then, Rudy won seven times in a row until 1974. In 1969, Rudy beat Darmadi (Indonesia); 1970 win
over Svend Pri (Denmark); 1971 again beat the Indonesian player, Muljadi; 1972 met Svend Pri again
and won; 1973 win over Christian Hadinata (Indonesia); and in 1974 beat Malaysian player, Punch
Gunalan. Rudy Hartono Kurniawan almost broke his own record in 1975 if he did not lose to the
men's singles from Denmark, Svend Pri, one of his arch enemies. The next All England period, in
1976, Rudy Hartono returned to the championship path. In the final round, Rudy beat fellow
Indonesian player, Liem Swie King. The eight All England titles he won were recorded in the
Guinness Book of Records in 1982. In addition, Rudy was also instrumental in winning four Thomas
Cups in 1970, 1973, 1976 and 1979.
Rudy Hartono Eight Times All England Champion

Since officially becoming a sport competed in the 1992 Olympics, badminton has never failed
to contribute medals for Indonesia, except in 2012. This can be seen in the data from 1992, 1996,
2000, 2004, 2008 and 2016. Even so, the number of medals won decrease. At the 1992 Olympics, the
badminton event which took place at the Pavello de la Mar Bella building, Barcelona, made a gold
record in Indonesian sports. There were four medals won. Two gold through men's and women's
singles, Susi Susanti and Alan Budi Kusuma. In the final Susi Susanti beat Bang Soo-hyun (South
Korea), while in the men's singles the All Indonesian Final took place, Alan Budi Kusuma vs Ardy B.
Wiranata. Another silver medal came from the men's doubles pair Eddy Hartono/Rudy Gunawan who
lost to Park Joo-bong/Kim Moon-Soo from South Korea.

Indonesia returned to flying at the 1996 Olympics which took place in Atlanta, United States
of America. At that time the gold medal was donated by the men's doubles pair Rexy Mainaky/Ricky
Subagja who managed to thrash the Cheah Soon Kit/Yap Kim Hock (Malaysia) pair. Through the
men's doubles pair Antonius Ariantho/Denny Kantono, badminton also donated a bronze medal. From
the women's singles, presenting silver through Mia Audina who had to surrender to the South Korean
player, Bang Soo-hyun.

Badminton won another gold medal at the 2000 Olympics in Sydney, Australia. Even though
it's only three medals, at least badminton is a guarantee that red and white will fly in the sports arena
every four years. The men's doubles pair again showed their teeth through the gold medal won by
Tonny Gunawan/Candra Wijaya. Meanwhile, Hendrawan's men's singles had to admit Ji Xinpeng's
superiority from China in the final round. The mixed doubles pair Tri Kusharyanto/Minarti Timur
won the same thing after losing to the pair from China, Zhang Jun/Gao Ling. The single sector
tradition of winning gold at the previous Olympics was continued by Taufik Hidayat at the 2004
Olympics in Athens, Greece. Through a tough and dramatic battle, Taufik stopped Shon Seung-mo
from South Korea. Repeated medal win at the 2008 Olympics which took place in Beijing, China.
This time the gold was donated by the men's doubles pair, Markis Kido/Hendra Setiawan, who
defeated Cai Yun/Fu Haifeng (China). One silver medal was won by mixed doubles pair, Nova
Widianto/Liliyana Natsir. Maria Kristin won one bronze medal from the women's singles sector.

Indonesia's current badminton achievements make PBSI a chore to improve Indonesian


badminton so that it can restore the achievements that have been achieved as in the past which made
Indonesia the mecca of world badminton. On the other hand, it is necessary to continue to have
support from the community by always making badminton one of the sports that is included in every
activity.

Badminton Equipment, Technique And Rules

 Equipment Badminton

Racket

Racket is a hitting tool in the game of badminton. The badminton racket part consists of a handle
made of wood. While the raw material for the racket frame is made of a mixture of carbon fiber,
graphite, aluminum and some alloys of titanium. The length of the racket is around 66-68 cm. At the
top or oval head with a width of 22 cm. The head has a net made of strings in the form of synthetic
plastic ropes but they don't break easily.

Shuttlecock

The shuttlecock is a tool in badminton that is hit so it doesn't fall to the ground. The material really is
made of goose feathers and white chicken feathers. Kok has a length of 64-16 mm and has a diameter
of 25 mm. The weight for playing badminton is 4.74-295.67 grams.
Net

The net is a dividing net between the two players or pairs. The net is right in the middle of the field.
According to the official BWF (Badminton World Federation) website, the length of the net for
badminton games follows the width of the court, that is, 6.10 meters. Then, the net height is 1.524
meters with a net area of 76 cm x 610 cm.

 Basic Technique

1. Grip

a. American Grip

The way to hold a racket with the American Grip model is to place the racket on the floor,
then take it and hold it by the end of the handle by holding the mattress. The hand between the thumb
and forefinger is attached to the surface of the shaft, while the surface of the racket is parallel to the
floor.

This American grip grip is more effectively used in smashing and for taking shuttlecocks over
the net by pressing the shuttlecock down sharply. In addition, this obstacle rarely occurs when the
shuttlecock hits the frame, because the surface of the racket hits the shuttlecock maximally. On the
other hand, this type of grip is less effective for backhand strokes and for playing the net where the
ball is on the right and left sides, because it lacks freedom of movement, so the American grip
technique is rarely used.

b. Forehand Grip

In holding the badminton racket with the forehand grip technique, this method is quite simple
because the players just do it like when shaking hands with other people. When holding the handle of
the racket, pay attention and make sure a V is formed by the thumb and forefinger as the gap. Three
fingers, namely the middle, ring and little fingers grip the racket, while the index fingers are slightly
apart. Place the thumb between the three fingers and forefinger. The index finger plays the role of
controlling the stroke, in essence, use the index finger to push the racket forward when hitting the
forehand.

In the forehand grip, the thumb plays a very important role, the location of the thumb is
placed between the index finger and the other three fingers, more precisely on the wider surface of the
racket grip. The purpose of holding like this is so that the grip technique to the backhand grip can be
done quickly during a match. The forehand grip is held with the entire palm, so the grip will be
stronger and not easily released. The grip does not need to be rotated so that it will cause errors in
placing the racket head position.
c. Backhand Grip

Holding a badminton racket with a backhand grip technique, the emphasis on the thumb is the
origin of this stroke. How to hold this racket technique, the thumb needs to be used and placed on a
wider surface than the badminton grip. As well as focusing on the thumb on the broad surface, the
index finger should relax and move closer to the middle finger. When using this racket grip, usually
the direction of the blow will be difficult to predict and this is one of the advantages, even when it's
flying hard, players can still control it. Apart from that, the advantage is that players can freely return
the shuttlecock that comes from the left side of the body. Meanwhile, the weakness in using this
tackle is that it is difficult to return a smash that is aimed at the body's hand, especially if it is aimed at
the right waist and also the shoulder.

d. Combination Grip

How to hold the racket with a combination grip technique between forehand and backhand,
which is enough to change the racket grip according to the direction the shuttlecock is coming from
and the type of stroke to be used. The combination technique is usually mostly used by badminton
players, because there is no need to change the position of the racket handle when you want to make a
shot. The weakness in the technique of holding this racket is that players will have difficulty in hitting
shots that have passed through the player's own body.

2. Footwork technique

This technique refers to foot movements to increase the agility of foot movement positions to
the front, side or back. This technique aims so that it can be reached in any area swiftly. When the
player is in the right position, the attack can be perfectly executed on the opponent by executing a
death blow. In fact, players also have the opportunity to counter attack opponents quickly and
precisely.
3. Hitting Techniques

In the game of badminton there are a number of basic hitting techniques that need to be
mastered, namely:

a. Service Techniques

Service shots are the initial techniques which if done perfectly can increase the potential for
points. There are several serving techniques that can be done, including the forehand serve (swinging
the racket from below) and the backhand serve (the direction and fall of the shuttlecock are
deliberately placed closest to the opponent's line of attack).

b. Drive Technique

This punch is done quickly and horizontally. This punch is used to avoid the opponent's attack
or vice versa to make the opponent cornered by lifting the shuttlecock and making it in a defensive
position.
c. Overhead Technique

This technique is also commonly called a punch over the head. In essence, this movement is
meant to hit the shuttlecock when it is overhead. There are two popular types of overhead shots,
namely the dropshot and the smash.
d. Underhand Technique

This technique is also known as the hitting technique from below which requires the skill of
the player to run with wide strides with the right foot positioned in front of the left foot so that the fall
can be reached. In this reaching attitude, bend your elbows and position your body upright so that
your right knee can automatically bend slightly. When hitting shuttlecocks, the strength of the elbows
and wrists can be utilized. The soles of the feet are maintained to touch the floor while continuing to
reach really, but the movement of steps should not be hampered because the movement of the left foot
is restrained. This shot aims to return the opponent's net game shot or the opponent's short shot. In
addition, this technique is widely applied in order to survive the opponent's punch attacks.

e. Netting Technique
Netting is a blow that is done in front so that it falls as thin as possible with the net in the
opponent's area. Netting is done by hitting the shuttlecock with a soft touch and a little twist.

 Badminton Rules

Based on the official Laws of Badminton rules released by BWF, the standard size of a badminton
court is 13.40 meters long and 6.10 meters wide. The field is divided in half by a net in the middle, so
that the area of each side is 6.70 meters long. For single sector, the width of the field on the right and
left is reduced by 0.46 meters. Meanwhile, the front boundary of the single and double service area is
1.98 meters from the net.

As for the other rules, namely:

1. The single player service room has a limit to the back line.
2. In the doubles service room, the back line is reduced by 0.76 from the back boundary line.
3. The height of the netting pole is 1.55 meters.
4. The net stretches straight across the field with a net height at the midpoint of the field
reaching 1.524 meters.
5. The game starts with a service shot.
6. When having an even number, the player will make a cross shot from the service area on the
right side of the court. And vice versa, when you have odd points.
7. Once the game starts, players can hit the shuttlecock from any area by crossing the net into
the opponent's territory.
8. The game lasts until one of the sides is unable to return the shuttlecock to the opponent's area.
9. Points are earned from incoming punches, opponent's punches out, opponent's punches
trapped in the net, or opponent's service errors.
10. Official scoring system of 21 rally points for each set or game.
11. If there is a 20-20 draw, the point setting rules apply until finding a difference of two points
for the winner. Setting points are limited to a maximum of 30.
