History of Badminton in the Philippine setting

Abroad, the Philippines is known for many things: exquisite beaches like Boracay and
Palawan, gifted boxer Manny Pacquiao, its outstanding hospitality.  However, if you ask
Filipinos themselves, they will surely tell you that they are more known for their perseverance in
trials.  That is exactly the backbone of badminton here in the country.

There are planners and there are doers.  These are the two groups that enabled Philippine
badminton to survive all these years.  And as the game encourages competitiveness and fighting
spirit, its history in the country has been a perfect example of resilience off court.

The Philippines joined the International Badminton Federation in 1950 and organized its
first national group – the Philippine Badminton Association (PBA) in 1952.   In 1949, Adriano
Torres Jr. was the first national singles champion.   By the 1960’s, the Philippines was no longer
a stranger to international badminton.   Names like Johnny Yan and Stephen Cheng (men’s
doubles champions in the 1962 Hong Kong Open); the team of Danny So, Renato Navarro,
Jaime Gapas, Conrado Co and Armando Yanga (team gold in 1966 Triangular Meet, Vietnam)
and Errol Chan (round of 16 finisher in the 1979 World Badminton Championships) allowed the
country to gain access to world badminton.

However, despite these names, badminton was not popular from the 50’s to the 80’s. 
There were no training programs or coaches that taught the sport.  There were very few major
clubs, even in the capital Manila where, at the YMCA, Philippine Navy and Valle Verde,
enthusiasts could only play at night.  Athletes had to go out of the country, see foreign coaches or
meet foreign players to learn more about the basics of the sport.  Badminton was not given much
importance.  Only in the early 80s, when would-be President Fidel V. Ramos (then Lt. General in
the Philippines Armed Forces and President of the PBA) sent a select group of players to
Fuzhou, Fujian, China, did the country have its first taste of standard international training.  This
kind of exchange enabled these players to start key training programs themselves.  Shortly after
that, a badminton team represented the Philippines in the Southeast Asian Games for the first
time, in 1981, and at the Thomas Cup in 1984.

Badminton slowly began to rise in popularity.  Courts began to sprout up, especially in
military and police camps like in Cramp Crame and Fort Bonifacio.  Military men had their
people play as a major recreational pursuit and eventually teams were formed to concentrate on
the sport.  Figures seen playing were former First Lady Amelita Ramos and her husband, former
President Ramos, which added to the sport’s popularity.  More clubs sprung up, such as the
Manila Polo Club, and this led to the organization of local tournaments.

In the mid-nineties, many firsts were made for the country.  Among these were Melvin
Llanes becoming the first junior champ (at the 1992 Prince Asian Juniors) and Weena Lim
becoming the first Filipino to qualify for in the Olympic Games, representing the islands in
Atlanta in 1996.  Lim partnered Kennie Asuncion to win the country’s first gold medals in
international competitions – the 1995 Arafura Games Australia and the 1997 Australian
Championships – and advance to the semi-finals in the 2002 U.S. Open.  They also won bronze
in ladies’ doubles in the 1997 Jakarta SEA Games, where the men’s team also upset Singapore
and reached the highest place ever achieved (2 nd runner up in the men’s team event).  Shortly
thereafter, the men’s team won their first victory in Thomas Cup play, at the 1998 Asian Zonal
Championships.

The mixed doubles partnership of Kennie and Kennevic Asuncion racked up a fair share
of international results, including bronze medals in the 1997 and 2003 SEA Games, in the 2002
Canada Open, before the siblings went on to qualify for the 2003 World Championships, with
Kennevic Asuncion also qualifying in singles.  The Badminton World Federation (BWF) had
them as high as #11 in the world rankings, during the 2008 the Olympic season.

At the same time, more efforts were made to promote badminton through national
competitions.  Televised tournaments were brought to malls and major coliseums.  There were
badminton shows on major television channels.  World-class players from Malaysia, Indonesia,
China, Poland, and others were invited to spar with local athletes.

During 2004 to 2007, there was a sudden surge in the sport’s popularity.  Stadiums, once
solely used for basketball, were filled with badminton aficionados.  Basketball courts and
storehouses were converted into badminton courts.  Dual meets and competitions were
simultaneously organized every couple of months.  University associations like the University
Athletic Association of the Philippines (UAAP) began to hold competitions among prominent
colleges and universities.  Badminton clubs in and out of the country sprouted.  Companies
formed badminton clubs to compete with other companies.  Celebrities and political figures
endorsed the sport for wellness and health.  Endorsement deals like Gatorade showcased players
and bigger tournaments.  People were trained in groups and families.

Suddenly, everyone knew about badminton.  It was no longer “a form of tennis” or a “girl
sport”.  People no longer asked whether it was played indoors or outdoors.  It encouraged health
consciousness and exercise.  It served as a means for families to bond and younger people to get
out of bars and computer shops.  It became an addictive pastime.

III. Skills

Serve- The first part of playing badminton. Serving. You can serve either backhand or forehand,
but it must be below the waist. Usually serve short with backhand and long serves with forehand.
Short serves for doubles and mens singles and long serves for womens singles but you can also
do short with women and long with men in singles play.

Clear- One of the most basic badminton shots. Often used to give yourself time but is also used
to pressure weaker players. Learning this makes it very easy to learn other shots as well.
Drives- Drives are great for pressuring opponents and there are also many times when your
opponent will force you into driving so definitely need to know how to do these. The variations
below are extremely important for doubles.
  Offensive- offensive drives are when you’re hitting the shuttle like a net kill except with
less power. Used a lot in doubles when there’s not enough time to fully kill the shuttle or
when moving into offensive position.

 Defensive- defense drives are usually used when offensive drives are being played
against you. It’s not an optimal place to be in but being able to play defensive drives for a
while can stall opponent’s stamina.

Net Shot- Net shots are extremely important because with the first two items on the list, you will
technically be able to play a shot from anywhere on the court.

Smash- The smash is one of the signature shots in badminton. Often the killing blow of the rally,
your smash can change your opponent’s play style (more on this later) and allow you to get
point.

Drop Shot- Being able to play drop shots can mean effortless points. It’s a great tool to play
variations (more on this later too).

 Fast Drop- A fast drop is as it sounds, it’s a faster drop shot than the standard tight drop. This
shot is not as close to the net and its bit of extra speed propels it forwards a little further away
from the net to force the opponent to make a worse net shot which can give you time. This
one is straighter and doesn’t curve as much.

 Tight Drop- The opposite of the fast drop, make sure the tight drop is close to the net. This
one is usually used for winning points because opponents must travel further.

Lift- The lift is used most of the time defensively as a measure of getting time for yourself. If
you can’t lift then likely half of the time, you will lose around the net.

 Flat Lift- A variation from your standard high lift. This shot is mainly used in doubles (can
also be used in singles). You usually play this shot straight along the sideline to make your
opponent’s smashes flatter almost like a drive for easier defense and plans to turn it around.

Blocks- Blocks are fundamentals to defense. Basically, when someone smashes the shuttle onto
your side, you want to play a shot that lands at the front part of their court, aka net shot from mid
court.

Net Kills- With the smash, the net kill is a shot that will guarantee you points. Being able to
smash it down when you are very close to the net will almost always lead to a point. This shot is
great when they make bad net shots and/or blocks.

The Ready Stance- Always having the right stance when playing makes it a lot easier to
minimize the movements you need to make to hit a shot. The ready stance done by putting your
non-racquet leg a step forward and about shoulder width away from your racquet leg. Slightly
bend both knees with your weight balanced between both legs. Slightly bend forward from the
hip, keeping your back straight, and lift your racquet up with your racquet-hand in front of you
slightly above your shoulder and the head of the racquet to be right above your forehead. Raise
your non-racquet arm to help improve your balance.

Forehand and Backhand Grip- having the right grip is crucial in helping new players control their
shots better and protects from possible injury from putting too much pressure on the wrist. The
simplest way to grip your badminton racquet is by imitating a handshake. Your thumb should
press against the handle while the rest of your hand and four fingers wrap around the racquet.
This handshake should be a friendly one. Don’t grip too tightly because you need to retain
flexibility in your wrist. It is recommended that you opt to put a wrap around your grip to make it
more comfortable and less slippery.

This grip applies to both forehand and backhand grips used for both forehand and backhand
shots. The variations lie in that for the forehand grip, it’s better to fold your thumb a bit and let
your index finger control the racquet on the stroke, while for the backhand grip, the thumb
pressing against the racquet will control the stroke. Having a loose grip and being able to quickly
switch between grips is an advanced skill that allows pros to shift from forehand to backhand
easily.

Footwork- footwork is basic badminton skill that a lot of new players often overlook. But having
the right footwork makes the game so much easier as it allows you to cover more ground around
the court while using less time and energy. Lateral steps are the best way to move around the
badminton court as it allows you to cover a lot of ground and change direction fast, while putting
less strain on your knees. By practicing the right footwork, you’ll feel that it is easier to recover
to hit shuttles that are flying towards the other side of the court. Some basic drills to improve
your lateral movement can be very effective in helping train yourself to move around the court
better.

Strokes- There are 4 basic strokes that every beginner needs to learn. By knowing these,
beginners can create good badminton stroke habits, which they can use in the future for more
advanced shots like drops, smashes, and drives. These are:

 Overhead Forehand – this is the most common stroke and most beginners are very more
comfortable using this especially for stronger strokes. Make sure to have a forehand grip,
lift your racket arm up with the racket slightly above your head, and tilt your body to the
side of your racket arm with your racket arm behind you. Widen your chest and use your
non-racket hand to point at the shuttlecock to aim. Straighten out your racket arm then
swing it towards the shuttle in a downward motion while slightly rotating your waist
towards the front. Swing the racket until it’s pointing slightly downwards.

 Overhead Backhand- the overhead backhand is slightly more difficult for beginners as
you’ll have to face your body backward to use this effectively. This is a slightly advanced
shot that is hard to master at first but doing so will set good foundations to how you play
 badminton. To start, turn your body to the back in the direction of your non-racket arm,
with your racket arm raised in front of you and pointing towards the back. Keep your
racket-arm close to your body, bent such that your elbow is pointing down. As the shuttle
approaches above your head level, slightly tilt your arm downward to gain momentum
then swing up and flick your wrist upward until the racket is pointing up and your arm is
straightened out. Remember to immediately go back to your ready stance once you’ve hit
the shot.

 Underarm Forehand– the underarm forehand allows you to hit low shots with a lot of
strength, but it is quite challenging to aim at first. To do this, from your ready stance,
lunge forward with your racket-leg and keep your racket arm slightly bent with the top of
the racket’s head slightly below shoulder level. Straighten your arm out to make the
racket tilt backwards then flick your wrist, followed by your arm, to swing forward when
hitting the shuttle. Bend your body forward slightly to keep your balance.

 Underarm Backhand– the underarm backhand is actually easier to do than the overhead
counterpart since you won’t need to turn backwards. Lunging towards your backhand
area, bend your racket arm downward with the racket handle parallel to the floor and the
racket head parallel to your body. Flick your wrist upward, followed by your arm until
your arm is extended straight and aligned with your shoulder.

Underarm Backhand Serve

The underarm backhand serve is the most basic badminton serve that you can practice as a
beginner because it gives you easier control in terms of how strong you’ll hit the shuttle and
where you will make the shuttle go in terms of height or placement on the court. By learning
how to utilize this serve, you can already start to strategize where you place your serve
depending on your opponent. To start, have a ready stance with your backhand leg slightly
forward with both feet pointing forward. Lift your racket up to so it is parallel to the floor, with
the head parallel to the net and aligned with your shoulder. Using your non-racket hand, hold the
shuttle cock by the feather about 5-6 inches in front of the center of the racket’s face. Bend the
wrist of your racket hand downward to generate momentum and flick upwards with varying
strength depending on how far or how high you want the shuttle cock to travel. Try to play
around with how strong you hit the shuttle and how high you follow through. Try to aim for
different spots in the court with this serve and you’ll immediately have the upper hand against
your opponents.

Deceptions- Deceptions are when you fake a type of shot and then play all different shot.
Examples are net shotting after faking a net kill, driving with a net shot fake, and the most
famous, drop shot after faking a smash. There are many more deceptions you can play. A basic
of playing these shots are knowing the angle of racket when you approach the shuttle and
hesitation.
Slicing- Slicing is something you can add to net shots or drop shots to make them extremely tight
to the net. Be careful with this one though because the more you slice, the less power it has so
know when to use it. Usually you slice drop shot when faking a smash and slice on very close net
shots. Like everything, this comes with practice.

Trick Shots- Okay so this one isn’t that important at all, but they can be really fun to play and if
you’re pro, you may be forced into playing these types of shots. Some examples include behind
the back, under the legs, and more. These really aren’t that useful except for the occasional
deceptions.

IV. Equipment and Facilities

Racket

The badminton racket is one of the most important tools a player has in the game. Badminton
rackets are much lighter than most other sports rackets because they are made from materials
such as carbon fiber or lighter metals such as aluminum. Parts of the racket include the head,
throat, shaft, and handle with a maximum length of 27.77 inches and a width of 9 inches. It has
strings that are stretched across the opening of the racket in a checkerboard pattern, which acts as
the hitting surface. Badminton rackets can vary widely in cost depending on whether they are
purchased as part of a basic backyard set or as more expensive professional models.

Shuttlecock

The badminton shuttlecock, also referred to as a shuttle or birdie, acts similarly to a ball in other
racket sports. However, the design of the birdie creates more drag as it is propelled through the
air due to its feathered shape. The shuttlecock is made up of a cone shape with a hard cork at its
tip. Shuttlecocks can be made from a variety of materials -- more expensive models are made
from feathers, and less expensive models are made from plastic feathers. The shuttle has 16
feathers attached to the base and the length of the feathers range between 2.44 and 2.75 inches.

Net

A mesh net divides the badminton court into two sides. A badminton net is placed lower than a
volleyball net at five feet and one inch high on the sides and five feet high in the center. The
length may vary depending on whether doubles or singles are playing, with singles reaching 17
feet and doubles reaching 22 feet. The net is 30 inches wide with a 3-inch white tape doubled
over the top.

Facilities

The badminton court should be 44 feet long by 22 feet wide if playing doubles, and 44 feet long
by 17 feet wide for singles. If the facility is indoors, there needs to be enough height for the
shuttlecock to be able to float across the net without hitting the ceiling. This height will vary
depending on the strength of the players.
V. Rules and Regulations

1. A Game of Two or Four

Badminton can be played as singles or doubles. In a single rally, there will be two players,
playing with each other. While in a double rally, you can pair up with your friend and play a
game of four. But the players are a set, like the sets of cards.

‍2. Left or Right
You cannot randomly choose your side as you wish. This is one of the basic badminton rules
which needs to be followed for any rally. At the beginning of the game, when the server’s score
is even, then you are at the right service court. If the servers score is odd, choose the left side.
(yes! Be thorough with odd or even numbers, they do count!!)

‍3. Know Your Weapons

Badminton is played with a stringed racket and a shuttlecock. The cock is topped with feathers
and have a rubber base. The player should always hit the rubber base and not the feathered part.
Each player can use a single stringed racket.
‍4. The Serve
The serve is the basic of any badminton play. Serve is the term used according to badminton
rules, to hit the cock during the beginning of each rally. Serve should always be done underarm
and below the server’s waist. An overarm serve is against the rules of badminton and would be
considered a fault. (your physics’ rule of high velocity does not suffice here!)
‍5. Begin It by a Toss
The basic rule and regulation of any badminton rally, either Olympics or your family play is that,
the game always begins with a toss. When playing with your friends, stop fighting for the first
serve, because you are within the box of the badminton rules! The start is only hosted by a toss;
the next first serve depends on who wins the rally. If you win the first rally, then the next game
begins with your serve. (perks of being the winner).
‍6. The ‘Net’ Trap
The net is a vital and villainous equipment in the play. If the shuttle cock hits the net or even
touches the net, disqualified! The point goes to your opponent.
‍7. Tame Your Hands and Your Feet
While the play is on, your feet should never touch the white line bordered around you. Your
hands are your rackets, a hand touch is a foul play, which is beyond the shadow of any doubt.
‍8. “That’s a Foul Play”!
According to the basic rules of badminton, if your cock touches the ground or if you hit it twice
from the same court, that’s considered a foul play. So, there’s no replay or second chance. “In
the game of badminton, you either loose or win, there’s never a chance!”
‍9. Don’t Be Bully Kid
While a play you should never back or temp your opponent while he/she is serving, which may
ward off their concentration. Feinting the opponents or trying to bully them by any means is
unpardonably offensive. Being a sportsman, you will obviously never be the bullying little kid
anymore.
10. The Landing
The shuttlecock, which is either served or hit, should land inside the service court. Any cock
which flew away the white boundaries will not be counted and yes, your opponent will definitely
score.
11. Dock Out!
If the following rules of badminton are continuously broken by a player, then the referee has the
undue right to dock out the player’s point or the player from the game. Be alert! Your actions
rule your future.
‍12. 21 Steps Ahead
To win the game of badminton you must score points before your opponent. Out of 3 sets of play
you must win 2 to be the talented winner.
‍Badminton Rules for Singles
In a single rally, there will be two players, playing with each other on opposite sides of the court.

 The serve
One of the important rules of badminton is about the serve. The serve should always be done
underarm and below the server’s waist. An overarm serve is against the basic rules of badminton
and would be considered a fault.

 Format
At the start of the game, the score is (0-0). You cannot randomly choose your side as you wish.
This is one of the basic badminton rules which needs to be followed for any rally. When the
server’s score is even, the server serves from the right service court. When the server’s score is
odd, the server serves from the left service court.

If the server wins a rally, the server gets a point and then serves again from the alternate side. If
the receiver wins a rally, the receiver scores a point and becomes the new server. The server
starts from the appropriate side– left if their score is odd, and right if the score is even.
According to the rules and regulations of badminton for singles, a “play-by-play” tournament
format is followed everywhere, wherein all players will be paired with an opponent for the first-
round matches. These players will have one week to play their matches before advancing to the
next round of the tournament.

 Scoring system
When the server wins the game, a point is scored and serve is retained. When the receiver wins
the rally, they earn the right to serve. However, the ability to gain a point or lose a point will
depend on the set of badminton rules and regulations. A match consists of best-of-three games to
21 points. At 20 all, the server which gains a two-point lead first wins the game. At 29 all, the
side scoring the 30th point first wins that game. A server in a new game will be the winner of the
previous one, and every time there is a serve, there will be a point scored, unless that point is
replayed.

A two-minute break is allowed between each game. A 60-second break can be taken when the
leading score reaches 11 point. In official BWF play, the receiver scores points. However, only
the server can earn points while playing classic-rules badminton in universities.

 Faults
In official games of BWF, faults and errors result in a point for your opponent and you must
surrender the serve to them. A major fault as listed in the badminton rules and regulations for
singles is missing the shuttle while swinging on the serve. If you hit the shuttle but it passes
underneath the net, it can be counted as a fault. Also, when you hit the shuttle out of bounds it is
a major fault as per the rules of badminton. Lastly, touching the shuttle with your body or
clothing is frowned upon amongst the basic rules of badminton. 
 ‍Coin toss
The basic rules and regulations of any badminton rally, either Olympics or leisurely with your
family is that the game always begins with a toss. When playing with your friends, stop fighting
for the first serve, because you must comply with the badminton rules that qualify a coin toss as
an appropriate determinant. The next first serve depends on who wins the rally. If you win the
first rally, then the next game begins with your serve.

 Boundaries
A player out of a team of 2 must serve inside the white lines of the diagonally opposite side so
that the shuttlecock falls inside it. After the receiver returns the serve, the player can hit the
shuttle anywhere within the entire court area

 Format
In doubles, the scoring system can be a little confusing, since there are 2 players in a team who
can serve. A rule of thumb is that a badminton game always starts from the right-hand side. The
order of server depends on the score odd or even, the same badminton rules and regulations for
doubles as it is for singles. For example, if both pairs have decided that you and your partner
start the game with you delivering the first serve, the score is 0-0. Since 0 is an even number, you
will serve from the right side of the court. Otherwise, the players continue to stay in their
respective service court from where they played their previous game. From this method, alternate
servers are guaranteed.

 Switching sides on the court

In Badminton rules and regulations for doubles entail that the players or teams will switch sides
on the court during the following times:

At the end of the first game

Ø At the end of the second game and if a third game is to be played
Ø During the third game if the first player/team scores a total of 11 points.

 Scoring system
If the serving side wins, they score a point and the same server serves again from the alternate
service court. If the receiving side wins, the receiving side scores a point. The receiving side
becomes the new serving side. To win the game of badminton, you must score points before your
opponent. Out of 3 sets of play you must win two. Every time there is a serve, there is a point
scored. According to badminton rules and regulations for doubles, the side of doubles that win a
rally adds a point to its score. When both sides reach 20 all, the side which gains a 2-point lead
first, wins that game. When both sides reach 29 all, the side scoring the 30th point, wins that
game.

 Faults
The shuttlecock which is either served or hit should land inside the service court. Any
shuttlecock which flew away from the white boundaries will not be counted and the opponent
will score. One side has only one attempt to retrieve the shuttle, either one of the players is going
to hit the shuttle. Even if the shuttle is accidentally touched by hand, it is still a fault. Also, an
important rule of badminton is that only the receiver can return the serve directed at them.
