Most people who casually play badminton hit their shuttlecocks for sheer enjoyment and often don’t stop until exhaustion is required. But badminton is a sport with spectators. And in order to prevent it from going on forever, there is an expectation that the length of the matchstick will be kept down.
A typical modern badminton match lasts 40-50 minutes. Variations in game duration are primarily due to:
Differences in skill levels between players, how many games are played, and how much rest players take between rallies. Other reasons are the frequency of shuttlecock changes, sweat drying, or water breaks. The shortest badminton match ever recorded he lasted 6 minutes. The longest badminton record is 2 hours and 41 minutes.
Despite all its speed and technical demands, badminton is definitely a fast-paced game. However, things can be unpredictable when it comes to how long the game lasts. There are no hard and fast rules regarding game duration. Maybe that’s the beauty of the game.
What Takes Place In A Badminton Match?
- Coin toss
In badminton, he has three rounds and the player who scores the most points in two rounds is the winner. The tournament begins with a coin toss to determine who will serve first. Whoever wins the toss throws the shuttlecock up and passes it to the other side.
- Points in the game
Every time you win a rally, you earn points. The player who first he scores 21 points wins the game. In a badminton club tournament, you have to select players for the next match. On the other hand, in a regular league, it’s a match, so it’s the best of the three. A player wins a game only if he wins two games. So the game lasts 2-3 games.
If a player wins the rally, that player gets the next serve. So if your opponent served in the last rally, that serve suits you. If we serve you in the game, we will continue to serve you.
- Two-point lead
In a badminton match, it is important that he wins by at least two points. If the score is 20-20 he has 21 points far less to win the game. In a row, he must collect 2 points. If the score is between 30 and 29, you win the game. The game cap is 30 points.
- Say Server First Score
Before each rally, you must say your opponent’s score. It can be said that it is easy to lose sight of points and can prevent conflicts between rallies. If a 10-point player gives his 15-point service to an opponent, that player’s score is he is 10-15.
- Select the provider
There are two service courts. Right and Left. If a server’s score is even, the server may serve from the correct serving court or vice versa. The right service court is called the even service court and the left service court is called the odd service court.
If you win a rally, you serve from a different side every time. Since zero is an even number, the game always starts with the player serving from the right service court.
- Receiver location
The server’s score determines the receiver’s position. The receiver is located diagonally opposite the server in the service box. Both badminton players are standing on either the even service court or the odd service court.
- Doubles tournament points
In doubles, each pair gets a point. The even-odd law is the same in this case as well. If the server has an odd score, he serves from left field or vice versa. The receiver positions his field diagonally to serve.
If the serving side wins the rally, the same person serves again from his court for another service. Only one person continues to serve until the opponent wins the rally and gets a serve.
- Each player has a service court
In double scoring, each player has a service field each time. If your partner has one serving dish, you have another serving dish.If your partner does not serve or receive service, your partner does not stay in any of her boxes. He can be anywhere on the pitch.
- Serve to win the rally
Serve and your side wins the rally. The next rally must be served from the other side. You and your partner should be in different courts. Server partners can play wherever they want but must remember where they serve for future rallies. A bankruptcy trustee, on the other hand, cannot change his place of work. You can change the serving location by earning points when serving.
- Get the rally and win
If the other side wins the rally, the service is passed to the opponent. Serving locations will remain unchanged from previous rallies. If the result is an odd number, the player serves on the left service court or vice versa.
- Interval
Between each game, he has a one-minute rest. In the third game, the badminton player can change sides if he is 11 points behind.
What Is the Longest Badminton Match in History?
The longest badminton match recorded in the record books was almost ten years apart. These games were in his 2016 and 1997.
The reason I separated them was not that they were the same length (which they weren’t), but because the fields of badminton played were different. The 1997 match between China and Denmark was played in men’s singles.
Kurumi Yoneo & Naoko Fukumitsu vs Gracia Polly & Nitya Krisinda Maheswari: 2 hours 41 minutes
The epic semi-final matches between Japan’s Yonao and Fukuman and Indonesia’s Polly and Krisinda were memorable. Her heart-pounding 2:41 Asian Championship semi-final remains the longest in history.
Peter Rasmussen vs. Sun Jun – 2 hours 4 minutes
Nine years before Japan’s semi-final victory in 2016, the men’s singles final by Denmark’s Peter He Rasmussen and China’s Sun Jun was the longest. In 1997 Glasgow hosted the World Badminton Championships, the longest singles match ever held.
In the first game, Jun battled Rasmussen exhaustively and emerged victorious. The two faced off in a thrilling match that China won 16-17. Rasmussen regained momentum in the second game, beating his opponent by three points (18-15). He later won the final match, giving Denmark the championship.
What Is The Shortest Length Of A Badminton Match?
Badminton is not necessarily a game of endurance. With his speed and cunning, sometimes matches can be over in just a few minutes, and he’s six to be exact.
That’s right – 6 minutes! This was the shortest match in badminton history, held at the Uber Cup in Hong Kong on May 19, 1996.
The historic match was between South Korea’s Ra Kyung-min and England’s veteran Shuttle his player, Julia Mann. Two players met and competed in a match that ended quickly. In two games, the talented South Korean Ra Kyung-min shot at Mann and she went missing. If they win, South Korea will be able to win easily. La Kyung-min won the first game 11-2 and the second game 11-1. In a landslide win, the South Korean Shuttle players didn’t have to prepare their rackets for the third game. At the time, it was enough to reach a maximum of 11 points in the women’s singles. Whether the consequences were due to one player’s skill or the other’s stupidity, the history books tell. The match between La Kyungmin and Julia Mann has been recognized by Guinness World Records as the shortest match in badminton history.
