badminton shuttle

Kids just love playing a game of badminton with their friends and family. An important component of badminton is the shuttlecock, also known as the shuttle. The shuttle is a small object, whether made of feathers or plastic, that players hit back and forth across the net with rackets. In Lesson 4 we found out more about the shuttlecock and how it is used in badminton.

The shuttlecock has been around in badminton for a long time. Feathers from birds like geese or ducks were initially used. They were fixed on a small cork body which gave to the shuttle the necessary shape and weight. As badminton became more widely known, people began making shuttlecocks out of plastic, rather than feathers. Plastic shuttlecocks are stronger and more flighty, favorite for players at all levels.

Choosing the right shuttle for optimal performance

In the case of the game of badminton, it is essential to choose the right shuttlecock according to your skill level and the place where you are playing. As a beginner, you can use a plastic shuttle and is reliable and controllable. An older player may prefer a shuttlecock made from feathers because it travels faster and has better aim. You should also consider things such as the weather: temperature and humidity, which can alter the commotion caused by the shuttlecock in the air.
