ETYM From the name of the seat of the Duke of Beaufort in England.
A game played on a court with light long-handled rackets used to volley a shuttlecock over a net.
Racket game similar to lawn tennis but played on a smaller court and with a shuttlecock instead of a ball. The object of the game is to prevent the opponent from being able to return the shuttlecock.
Badminton is played by two or four players. The court measures 6.1 m/20 ft by 13.4 m/44 ft. A net, 0.8 m/2.5 ft deep, is stretched across the middle of the court and at a height of 1.52 m/5 ft above the ground to the top of the net. The shuttlecock must be volleyed.
Only the server can win points. The sport is named for Badminton House, the seat of the duke of Beaufort, where the game was played in the 19th century. The major tournaments are held on indoor courts; they include the Thomas Cup, an international team championship for men, first held in 1949, and the Uber Cup a women’s international team competition, first held in 1957.
