Introduction to the Sport
Badminton is played throughout the world from beginner to international
level by boys, girls, men and women. It is played by able-bodied and
disabled people. Provision is made for ethnic groups and for women-only
groups. It can be a simple game for beginners or a dynamic game for top
athletes.

The beginning stage of learning Badminton is the exploratory phase,
where the player is attempting to learn the correct sequence of
movements of all the basic skills e.g. serve, return of serve, overhead
shot. A number of errors may be made and players will need feedback
to recognise and correct these errors. Initially a player may find it
difficult to rally and have limited stroke range.

During the intermediate stage a player will be performing more
consistently and with more quality e.g. good length. Timing and
anticipation will improve although skills may break down under
pressure in a game situation.

At the advanced stage all the basic skills are performed with quality
and flair . Players are able to concentrate on more detailed aspects of
the skills and the tactics required, producing surprise elements if
needed.
