Badminton

Badminton is a racquet sport played by either two opposing players (singles) or two opposing pairs (doubles).Players score points by striking a shuttlecock with their racquet so that it passes over the net and lands in their opponents' half of the court.A rally ends once the shuttlecock has struck the floor, or if a fault has been called by either the umpire or service judge or, in their absence, the offending player, at any time during the rally.

Since 1992, badminton has been an Olympic sport with five events: men's and women's singles, men's and women's doubles, and mixed doubles, in which each pair consists of a man and a woman

The International Badminton Federation was established in 1934 with Canada, Denmark, England, France, the Netherlands, Ireland, New Zealand, Scotland, and Wale, And there are many countries that joined later.
