1. HISTORY
Badminton is a racquet sport played using racquets to hit a shuttlecock
across a net. Although it may be played with larger teams, the most
common forms of the game are "singles" (with one player per side) and
"doubles" (with two players per side). Badminton is often played as a
casual outdoor activity in a yard or on a beach; formal games are
played on a rectangular indoor court. Points are scored by striking the
shuttlecock with the racquet and landing it within the opposing side's
half of the court.
Games employing shuttlecocks have been played for centuries across Eurasia, but
the modern game of badminton developed in the mid-19th century among the
British as a variant of the earlier game of battledore and shuttlecock. ("Battledore"
was an older term for "racquet".) Its exact origin remains obscure. The name derives
from the Duke of Beaufort's Badminton House in Gloucestershire, but why or when
remains unclear. As early as 1860, a London toy dealer named Isaac Spratt
published a booklet entitled Badminton Battledore – A New Game, but no copy is
known to have survived. An 1863 article in The Cornhill Magazine describes
badminton as "battledore and shuttlecock played with sides, across a string
suspended some five feet from the ground".
The game may have originally developed among expatriate officers in British India,
where it was very popular by the 1870s. Ball badminton, a form of the game played
with a wool ball instead of a shuttlecock, was being played in Thanjavur as early as
the 1850s and was at first played interchangeably with badminton by the British, the
woollen ball being preferred in windy or wet weather.

Early on, the game was also known as Poona or Poonah after the garrison town of
Poona, where it was particularly popular and where the first rules for the game were
drawn up in 1873. By 1875, officers returning home had started a badminton club in
Folkestone. Initially, the sport was played with sides ranging from 1 to 4 players, but
it was quickly established that games between two or four competitors worked the
best. The shuttlecocks were coated with India rubber and, in outdoor play,
sometimes weighted with lead. Although the depth of the net was of no
consequence, it was preferred that it should reach the ground.
The sport was played under the Pune rules until 1887, when J. H. E. Hart of the
Bath Badminton Club drew up revised regulations. In 1890, Hart and Bagnel Wild
again revised the rules. The Badminton Association of England (BAE) published
these rules in 1893 and officially launched the sport at a house called "Dunbar" in
Portsmouth on 13 September. The BAE started the first badminton competition, the
All England Open Badminton Championships for gentlemen's doubles, ladies'
doubles, and mixed doubles, in 1899. Singles competitions were added in 1900 and
an England–Ireland championship match appeared in 1904.
England, Scotland, Wales, Canada, Denmark, France, Ireland, the Netherlands, and
New Zealand were the founding members of the International Badminton Federation
in 1934, now known as the Badminton World Federation. India joined as an affiliate
in 1936. The BWF now governs international badminton. Although initiated in
England, competitive men's badminton has traditionally been dominated in Europe
by Denmark. Worldwide, Asian nations have become dominant in international
competition. China, Denmark, Indonesia, Malaysia, India, South Korea, Taiwan (as
Chinese Taipei) and Japan are the nations which have consistently produced world-
class players in the past few decades, with China being the greatest force in men's
and women's competition recently.
The game has also become a popular backyard sport in the United States.
