D. Developmental Activities

a. Discussion of the lesson

“In connection with what you’ve played

earlier, our topic for today is all about the
basic skills in Badminton.”

“What is gripping?
“Kindly read the definition of Grip, Carlo.”

“Thank you, Carlo.” “A grip is a way of holding the racket in

order to hit shots during a match.”
“Do you know class, that gripping is the
foundation of learning badminton?”

“Class, playing badminton will start with

how you hold your racket, and this is the
first thing that you should learn in playing
badminton.”

“Did you understand?”

“We have 2 types of gripping in “Yes, sir!”

badminton, and these are:
 FOREHAND GRIPPING
 BACKHAND GRIPPING

“Let us start discussing the forehand

grip.”

“Will you read, Christian?”

 “The forehand grip utilizes the index
finger’s power the most. Thus, the grip is

but the index finger is the finger that

forehand strokes.”

“For you to better understand it, I

prepared a video tutorial on how to
properly do this grip. Please watch it
carefully and learn.”

(play the video)

“Now class, it’s your time to demonstrate

it.”

“Who wants to demonstrate it, class?”

“Any volunteer?”

“Yes, Montefalco?

“Nice on! Montefalco”

(The students will volunteer to
demonstrate the skills)
“Then, let us proceed to the next grip,
which is the Backhand Grip.”

“What is Backhand Grip?”

“Will you please read, Cruz?”

“This grip is used to make backhand

shots, which are shots made with the
back of your hand facing the birdie.
The backhand grip utilizes the power of
the thumb to strike the birdie. To make

“Again, here’s the video tutorial for that

grip, please watch it carefully and learn.”
(play the video)

“Class, it’s your time to perform this

grip.”

“Any volunteer?”
 “Yes, Ganiban?”

“Well done, Ganiban!” (The students will volunteer to

demonstrate the skills.”
“In backhand grip your just like doing a
thumbs up.”

“Are we clear with gripping class?”

“If you are really listening, can you tell

me the two types of grips?”
“Anyone?”

“Go ahead, Ken”

“Sir!”

“Very good, Ken”

“Sir, we have Forehand grip and
Backhand grip.”
“Now, let’s proceed to service”
“Anyone who wants to read?”

(Students will volunteer to read)

“Thank you, Kyle!” “SERVICE The service is the shot that

“So, service have two types of serving.

First the forehand service and backhand
service.” “Yes, sir!”

“Kindly read, Prince?”

“The forehand stroke in badminton is the

shot made by a player by swinging the
racket across their body with the palm
moving first. For the right-handed player,
the forehand is considered the stroke that
starts on the right side of their body, and
vice versa for a left-handed person.”

“Backhand serve - This type of serve has

several advantages. It is played from in
front of the body so it has a shorter
 distance to travel, which means it gets to

an advantage to gain score.”
“Did you get it?

“Let’s proceed to the next skill, the

Strokes”
“Yes, sir!”
“Niel, kindly read?”

“A badminton stroke is the movement of

the player’s racket with an intention to hit
the shuttle. The strokes are about what
happens before you hit the shuttle, how
“Basically, a stroke is how you strike the do you hold your racket, how do you

“Basic strokes Badminton, and these
are…”

Basic Badminton Strokes

 OVERHEAD FOREHAND This is
probably the most common
badminton stroke, and many
beginners are usually comfortable
in using this, particularly for
stronger badminton shots.

 OVERHEAD BACKHAND The stroke

is slightly harder for beginners
because you are required to face
your body in a backward position
to shoot effectively.

 UNDERHAND FOREHAND This

stroke lets you hit low badminton
shots with a lot of force, but it can
be difficult to aim in the beginning
stages.

 UNDERHAND BACKHAND It is
easier to perform this stroke than
the overhead backhand stroke
because you will not have to turn
your body backward.

“Anyone who wants to demonstrate the

basic stroke in badminton.”

“Very good!”

“Now, we have 5 shots in badminton.”

“Clear, Rally, Drop, Smash and Drive”
 (Students, demonstrate the basic stroke.”
“Kindy read the slide, Jen?”

“Aim of this shot is to let the shuttle fly

ball in volleyball, you can use the clear
shot when you need to get back to the
base.”
“Is it clear?”
high in the air and land at your
opponent’s back court. It is used when
you need time to get back to the base
before the next return or if you don’t
have a clear opportunity to kill and win
the point.”

“Okay, Next skill we have the Drop shot.”

“Will you please read, Duena?”

“Yes, sir!”

“Class, what is your advantage using this

shot?”
“This shot is a slow, gentle that falls just
over the net into the opponent’s
“Yes, Koy?” forecast.”
(Students raised their hands)
“Sir!”
“Excellent, Koy”

” Class, executing this shot will trick your “To easily get a point.”
opponent into believing you are going to
hit a clear or smash shot.”

“So, it means that you can also use this

shot as a technique.”

“Are we clear?”

“Please read the next slide, Tan?”

“Yes, sir!”

“Thank you, Tan”

“It means, rally is exchanging of shots. In “Exchange of shots while the shuttle is in
every sport, rally is one of the intense play. Serve or Service - used to put
plays in a match. shuttlecock into play at the start of
each rally.”
 “Did you get it?”

“The next shot is smash”

“Anyone who wants to read?”

“Yes, sir.”
“Yes, Les?”

“So, smash is like spike in volleyball. It is
a powerful hit that you need to get a
point.”
“Did you understand?”
“Sir!”
“This shot is a powerful overhead shot
used to put away the shuttle that is
above the height of the net.”

“And lastly, the Drive. Please read, Josh?”

“Yes, sir!”

“So, A drive shot in badminton is a fast,

flat shot hit close to the ground with a lot
of power.” “Sir, this is a line- drive shot that travels
parallel to the ground, passing close over
“Did you get it?” the net.”

“Again, what are the 5 shots in

badminton?” “Everyone?”

“Yes, sir!”
“Okay, very good everyone!”

“Let’s move forward to Footwork”

“Badminton footwork basically “Clear, Drop, Rally, Smash and Drive.”
encompasses two main things: Where
you position yourself on the court.”
“So, the Footwork is one of the most
important skills that you need to master
in badminton.”
“Did you understand?”

“Now, let’s discuss the rules of the

game.”
“The Toss, please read Andre?” “Yes, sir!”
 “At the beginning of each match, a toss is
made to determine which side serves
first. The winner of the toss can choose

make the first serve or to choose the
court.
“Understood?”

“Next the sets. Who wants to read?”

“Yes, sir!”

“Go ahead, Shane.”

“Sir!”

“A Badminton match commonly consists

of up to 3 sets. In the 21 points system,
“The sets consist of 3 sets and 21 points the player who manages to obtain 21

badminton game/set.”
“Is it clear, class?”

“Ok, please read the scoring? JM?”

“Yes, sir!”

“The right side of the court is called the

“even service court” If your total points
are 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, or 10, for instance, and
“A game is the first to 21 points. A match odd-numbered scores, such as 1, 3, 5, 7,

served. Whichever side won the rally gets
to serve or carries on serving. At 20-20
the game goes to setting, the first
player/pair to gain a two-point lead wins
the game. If the score reaches 29-29 the
side that scores the 30th point wins the
game. The side that wins the game starts

“Did you understand?”

“Let’s move to LET. Please read, Chua?”

“Yes, sir!”

“If a let is called, the rally is stopped and

“For the last slide, Service. Kindly read

remain the same, the player who serves
first shall do so from the right side of the
service court.”
“Is it clear, class?”

“Okay, very good!”

“Yes, sir!”
“Please read our last discussion the four

of footwork? If yes, let us all stand and “V front, V Back, Side by side and Moving

“Very good, everyone!”

(Students demonstrated the skills)
B. Generalization
“Any question so far, class? If you don’t
have any question, then I have a
question for your class.”

“What are the 5 shots in badminton?”

“Anyone from the class?” “None sir.”

“Ok, excellent!”
(A student volunteer)

“Clear, Rally, Drop, Smash and Drive.”

“Class what do you think is the
importance of executing or demonstrating
the skills properly during the game?”
“Any volunteer?”
“Nice answer, Pags.”
“That’s correct! Thank you for your idea,
Pags. Class, he is right. If you don’t
execute the skills properly in Badminton, (A student will volunteer)
or even in all kinds of sports, then you
will not give a high performance in the
game.”
“Am I right?”

“Always remember, class, that, if you

want to play a particular sport, like “Yes, sir!
badminton, you must develop the skills
first.”
“I hope now you understand the
importance of the proper execution of
skills. Do you, class?

“So that’s it for today. I hope you’ve

“Yes, sir!”
learned a lot, with that let’s call it a day.
Good bye everyone! God Bless!
