The racket in its entirety is called a frame. The

frame can have a maximum length of 680mm
while the overall width is restricted to 230mm.
This is quite self-explanatory – the stringed
area is the netted part of the badminton racket
with which the player intends to hit the
shuttlecock.
A typical racket length is between 665m to
675mm, and should not exceed 680mm. A
racket with length between 674mm to
680mm is sometimes labeled as 'extra long'
racket, because a lot of rackets are around
665-670mm in length.
The length of a racquet is measured from
the butt of the handle to the tip of the
head. It ranges between 27 inches (the
most common) and 29 inches (the
maximum length allowed in professional
and non-professional tennis).
Shuttlecock

A regulation standard shuttlecock weighs

around 4.75 to 5.50 g (0.168 to 0.194 oz). It has
16 feathers with each feather 62 to 70 mm (2.4
to 2.8 in) in length, and the diameter of the
cork is 25 to 28 mm (0.98 to 1.10 in). The
diameter of the circle that the feathers make is
around 58 to 68 mm (2.3 to 2.7 in).
It has 16 goose feathers, sits on a stump of
Portuguese cork and flies at up to 300
miles per hour, which makes the
badminton shuttlecock one of the more
curious pieces of sports equipment to be
found anywhere.
