Study Notes
Badminton Shots
- Drive Shot: Typically played from the back of the court to provide less time for the opponent and force them to react quickly.
- Clear Shot: Aims to send the shuttlecock high and deep towards the back of the opponent’s court, giving time to reposition.
- Drop Shot: A looping shot played close to the net, used for attacking purposes to catch the opponent off guard.
- Smash Shot: Powerful shot aimed at the opponent’s court, used to win points quickly, especially when the opponent is positioned at the back of the court.
- High Clear and Punch Clear: Similar in purpose (to send the shuttlecock high and deep) but the punch clear is a quicker lower-flying shot with less arc.
Serving
- Serve Execution: Serve the shuttlecock underhand with the racket head below the waist level.
- Backhand Low Serve: Adding wrist power to a backhand low serve will make the shuttlecock go higher.
- Serve Rules: All serves must be hit below waist level.
- Flick Serve: Aims to deceive the opponent by quickly changing the direction of the shuttlecock.
- Push Serve: Requires less wrist power, swinging distance, and follow-through compared to other serves.
