Game and Badminton
hgchgvcjTheir studies provide them with varied knowledge, and games give them the necessary exercise to keep them physically healthy, alert and active. Games also inculcate in the children certain qualities of head and heart which they carry forward in their lives, from the games field.

There are two kinds of games, outdoor games that are played on vast fields, and indoor games that are played in the four walls of the home or classroom.

I have tried my hands on several games, both indoor and outdoor. In school I play football, volley ball, table tennis and badminton. However, in the passage of some time, after playing all these games, I have developed a special liking for badminton. By now, this game of badminton has become my favourite game.

Badminton has become my favourite game especially because it does not involve a large team. It can be managed more easily than the games with large teams in which adjustment of time becomes a problem quite often. If one player of the large team is absent from the school we cannot play.

This one snag makes me feel that, since collection of the team is a problem, that game becomes a bore instead of a pleasure. Moreover, in the process of time I have noticed to my dismay that, when large teams are involved, there also crop up jealousies, favouritism and politics in the game.

This is another reason I do not like any game that means a large team. This is because as soon as politics comes in the game the very spirit of the game is lost.

In badminton also I prefer singles to doubles. This is because, it is in singles that I really get very good exercise, and if I lose the game, I have no one to blame except myself.

This is one reason why in badminton I feel I keep on improving my game as; I just cannot blame anyone for my defeat in a game. In turn, since I blame myself, I keep on improving the game and thus can aspire to become a really good player at some stage of my career in badminton.

    According to (Pica, R. 2009), It is important to offer developmentally appropriate games to young children to increase self-confidence, teach problem solving, cooperation and trust as well as improving their motor skills. No child likes to be the odd one out or be labeled the looser, therefore providing developmentally appropriate games will eliminate these feelings and provide opportunities for all students to fairly participate. NAEYC suggests that “play allow children to stretch their boundaries to the fullest in their imagination, language, interaction and self regulation skills” as cited in Pica, (2009. p.66).…

    I would like to start off with a light introduction to the sport of Badminton. Badminton is a sport that isn’t too popular in the United States; some people would even say that it shouldn’t even be called a “sport”. The majority see badminton from a “back-yard sport” point of view, part of this is due to the lack of actual badminton court facilities in America, also because it’s a bit expensive to play. Badminton is not like basketball or football, in terms of being able to just pick up a ball and go outside and throw a ball around or go to a court in the park, a real game of badminton can’t even be played outside because of the wind. On top of needing to pay to be able to play inside an actual facility, for badminton you would have to pay for “shuttlecocks” as well, the shuttlecock or “birdie” is what you hit back and forth over the net. If you want to be able to play more “comfortably” you would have to consider even more expenses, because you would have to invest in a good badminton racket, which can range from $100 - $250 depending how light/flexible/etc. you would want your racket to be.…

    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. A rally ends once the shuttlecock has struck the ground, and the shuttlecock may only be struck once by each side before it passes over the net.The shuttlecock (or shuttle) is a feathered projectile whose unique aerodynamic properties cause it to fly differently from the balls used in most racquet sports; in particular, the feathers create much higher drag, causing the shuttlecock to decelerate more rapidly than a ball. Shuttlecocks have a much higher top speed, when compared to other racquet sports. Because shuttlecock flight is stubbornly affected by wind, competitive badminton is always played indoors. Badminton is also played outdoors as a casual recreational activity, often as a garden or beach game.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 is a man and a woman. At high levels of play, the sport demands excellent fitness: players require aerobic stamina, agility, strength, speed, and precision. It is also a technical sport, requiring good motor coordination and the development of…
