How To Score In Badminton? - PE

               Badminton, How Scoring Works.

This week in P.E we have been playing Badminton. Do you know how to score? If not, let me tell you!

You are able to play Badminton, by yourself or in pairs. (you can do more) There are smaller lines for a single match and wider/deeper ones for double matches!

If you hit the shuttlecock over to the side of the opposition, and they don't hit it but it lands within the lines you will score a point! 

If the server is unsuccessful in hitting the shuttlecock over the net, or the serve doesn't go diagonal, it's a point to the other team and they get the next serve.

If you hit the shuttlecock out of the lines/court, it's a point to the other team. 

If you don't hit the shuttlecock, or you don't hit it back over the net, and it falls to the ground on your side of the court, its a point to the opposition side. 

The first team to get 21 points wins the game! There are usually 3 games played, so you might win 3-0 2-1 or 2-0.

If the teams are both on 20 points in the game, the winner must get two points ahead to win, e.g. 22-20 

It may seem complicated but it gets easier as you play more!
