BADMINTON VS PADDLE

The objective of badminton and paddle is to pass the shuttlecock above the network by tapping it with the racket to get falling on the floor of the opposite field whenever you get it, you score a point. You can´t hit the shuttlecock or paddle ball twice consecutive or touch it with your body.

Matches are disputed of three types: singles doubles, and mixed doubles. It is played in two fields of 13.30m x 5,18m separated by a network of 2.28m of height. The network cannot touch. While, in paddle, the matches are disputes of two types: singles or doubles. The paddle court is 20m x 10m. In both sports, if the shuttlecock or the paddle ball falls on the ground outside the exterior lines of the field, or touch the roof or side walls, the last player commits a lack.

 In badminton, if the player has an even score of (0-2-4 - 6 points...) effected the throw-in from the right to the area diagonally. If the score is odd (1 3 5 7 points...) it gets out of the left side. All the kickoffs are made from the lower part of the body. Nevertheless, in paddle, the kickoffs are made from different places depending from the points (when you score one point you change the position) and it is carry on by the two or more players. Also, it’s made in diagonal.
