Equipments Of Badminton
and Table Tennis
 Equipments of Badminton
 Main Equipments
 The Racket (two to four) 
 The Shuttlecock (birdie)
 A badminton court 
 A badminton net
► Rackets
► Badminton rackets are light, between about 70 and 100 grams
(without strings). They are manufactured using different materials
such as carbon fiber composite to solid steel. 
More: Carbon fiber has an excellent strength to weight ratio, is
stiff, and gives excellent grips. However before that rackets were
made of aluminum. The even earlier generation of rackets were
made of wood but is no longer in the market due to their weight
and cost. Now, cheap rackets are still often made of metal
► There is a wide variety of racket designs. The traditional oval head
shape and an isometric head shape is still widely available and
implemented.
 Strings
 Badminton strings are thin, high performing strings in the
range of about 0.65 to 0.73 millimeters thickness. String
tension is normally in the range of 18 to 36 lbf (80 to 130
newtons). Recreational players uses lower tensions
strings between 18 and 25 lbf. Professionals string
between about 25 and 36 lbf.
 High string tensions improve control, whereas low string
tensions increase power. The optimum tension for power
depends on the player: the faster and more accurately a
player can swing their racket, the higher the tension for
maximum power. The most effective way for a player to
find a good string tension is to experiment.
 Grip
 The choice of grip allows a player to increase the thickness of his
racket handle and choose a comfortable surface to hold. A player
may build up the handle with one or several grips before applying
the final layer.
 Players may choose between a variety of grip materials. The most
common choices are PU synthetic grips or toweling grips. Grip
choice is of personal preference. Players often find sweating a
problem; in this case, a drying agent may be applied to the grip or
hands, or sweatbands may be used.
 There are two types of grip: replacement grips and overgrips.
Replacement grips are thicker, and are often used to increase the
size of the handle. Over grips are thinner (less than 1 mm), and are
often used as the final layer. Toweling grips are always replacement
grips. Over grips are more convenient for players who change grips
frequently, because they may be removed more rapidly without
damaging the underlying material.
 Shuttlecock

 A shuttlecock (known as a bird or birdie),

with an open conical shape: the cone is
formed from sixteen overlapping goose
feathers embedded into a rounded cork
base. The cork is covered with thin
leather.
 Shuttles with a plastic skirt are often used
by recreational players to reduce their
costs: feathered shuttles break easily.
• Shoes
• Badminton shoes are lightweight with soles of
rubber or similar high-grip, non-marking materials.
• Badminton shoes have little lateral support. High
levels of lateral support are useful for activities
where lateral motion is undesirable and unexpected.
Badminton, however, requires powerful lateral
movements. A highly built-up lateral support will not
be able to protect the foot in badminton; instead, it
will encourage catastrophic collapse at the point
where the shoe's support fails.
 Equipments Of Table Tennis
 Table Tennis Racket
 Table Tennis Table
 Table Tennis Net
 Table Tennis Ball
 Table Tennis Clothing
 Table Tennis Shoes
• Table Tennis Racket

• Your choice of table tennis racket is one of the

most important choices you'll make.
• How you develop as a player will be
determined by your racket choice, so it's
important to choose one that will
complement your style of play.
 Table Tennis Table

 Ifyou're considering buying a table

tennis table - whether it's a top
quality one or just a cheap table at a
discount store - there are a number
of items you'll need to consider.
 Table Tennis Nets

 Some table tennis tables have nets

included, but others don't. Also, nets can
become worn or broken and will need to
be replaced.
• Table Tennis Balls

• The ball should be light-

weight.
• You should feel comfortable
with the ball.
• A good supply of table tennis
balls is essential.
 Table Tennis Clothing

 You'll want to look smart, so some good

table tennis clothing is essential.
 You should feel comfortable with your
clothes.
 Proper attire is valuable for table tannis
player.
Measurement of the table
and court
 Measurement of the table
• Table
• The table is 2.74 m (9 ft) long, 1.525 m (5 ft)
wide, and 76 cm (30 inch) high with a Masonite
 (a type of hardboard) or similarly manufactured
timber, layered with a smooth, low-friction
 coating The table or playing surface is divided
into two halves by a 15.25 cm (6 inch) high net.
An ITTF approved table surface must be in a
green or blue color.
 Measurement of the court
 A badminton court dimension for every court played on must be a certain length
and width, and of course will differ from singles play to doubles play. In a Singles
play court, the badminton court measurement is 17 by 44 feet. In a doubles play
court, the badminton court size must be 20 by 44 feet. Of course, these are only
for professional games; you can use any badminton court measurements outside
of scheduled games.
 The badminton court size is divided into two equal half’s, called The Net Line. The
Net Lines dimension fills up the entire width of the court, creating an equal space
of 22 feet long and 20 feet wide on each side of the line. A typical Badminton net
goes over this line, the badminton net is five feet tall, and will stretch out through
the entire width of the court. badminton court length net height line is necessary
for every badminton court; you simply can’t play without it.
 The Short Service Line is on both sides of the Net Line. The Short Service Line is
usually about 6 to 7 feet away from the Center Line, on both sides. On a serve,
the shuttlecock must pass this line, or it is a fault and resulting in a loss of serve.
Inside this area can also be referred to the “Non-Volley Zone”
 Singles play is long and narrow; Doubles play is short and wide. The Singles Side
Line is approximately 1.5 feet inside of the Doubles Side Line (also the overall
court sideline). The Doubles Back Line is about 2.5 feet inside of the Singles Back
Line (also known as the overall court backline).
 Of course, following these badminton court size and dimension makes the game
more natural, but its not necessary to have these exact badminton
measurements to have a good game of badminton.
