I really like playing "Badminton" not "BEDminton"! lol... it's really a fun sport, you'll sweat a lot and drink a lot. It's quite expensive though at first since you need badminton equipment (racquet, shoes, etc..), shuttlecock during play time, place to play (taraflex or cement) and someone to play with -- but it's all about your "Choice of Sport" -- like a hobby for a distinctive comparison. It doesn't matter how expensive it is as long as you like it and it satisfy you! that's the term "SATISFACTION". LOL!
Is 40 to 50+ old a middle or old age? well, it's really fun playing with those people. Why? because they have "Stamina Burst"! haha... they have unlimited stamina, it's like they're not getting tired at playing. Crazy huh!? but it's the damn truth! Those people inspire me in playing badminton and I'll never forget them.
Badminton is a racquet sport played by either two opposing players (singles) or two opposing pairs (doubles), who take positions on opposite halves of a rectangular court that is divided by a net. 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. Each side may only strike the shuttlecock once before it passes over the net. A rally ends once the shuttlecock has struck the floor.
Badminton has long been played as a competitive sport many years ago. But right until now, there are still many people especially in places like USA or Canada who treat badminton as a backyard sports. A sport that is only for fun, enjoyment and not much effort is required.
But the fact is... Badminton is as competitive and as tough as any other sports. Badminton players are as fit if not fitter than tennis players, football players or any other sportsmen or women. Badminton is a game that demonstrates speed, stamina, agility, power and also delicate skills and touches. It is also a game of strategies, tactics and mental fitness. This game is also known as the physical chess game.
Badminton is also one of the most played sports in the World as it is a very popular sport in Asia as well as in some parts of Europe like Denmark and U.K. However the sad fact is Badminton is still trailing behind many other sports in terms of recognition, sponsorships and attention.
