“…Results of these studies showed that the scaling of equipment and playing area improve the players’ match performance, engagement, enjoyment and the development of desirable movement patterns related to motor variability. However, in badminton, the research has focused to analyze the following aspects: technical and tactical [ 30 ], physiological [ 31 , 32 ] or performance analysis [ 33 , 34 , 35 , 36 ] in elite and junior elite players, and not so much in scaling the equipment and play space for junior players. Although, some associations and federations, such as the Spanish Badminton Federation [ 37 ], in a similar way to the tennis 10’s program developed by the International Tennis Federation, do structure badminton competitions for junior players, to manipulate key task constraints.…”

Scaling equipment and the playing space according to junior badminton players’ characteristics and needs is a key aspect to design optimal learning environments. The purpose of the study is to analyze the incidence of reducing the court size (from 13.40 m × 5.18 m to 11.88 m × 5.18 m) and net height (from 1.55 m to 1.30 m) for under-11 badminton players on the following technical and tactical variables: (a) service area; (b) stroke effectiveness; (c) kinds of technical strokes; (d) players’ hitting area; (e) shuttle landing area; (f) shuttle flight; and (g) rally length. Twenty-eight badminton players (mean age of players: 9.81 ± 0.93) were selected and played a badminton competition (B) with the current federative rules and a mini-badminton competition (MB) with the altered net height and court dimensions. The results showed that a lower net height and a shorter court would increase the frequency and variability of strokes and play patterns, introducing quantifiable changes considered beneficial for children in their first stages, both in training and competition.

“…Badminton matches are characterized by high intensity and intermittent efforts involving numerous repetitive actions and consecutive movements during rallies (Manrique and Gonzalez-Badillo, 2003;Abdullahi and Coetzee, 2017). Technical, physical, and temporal variables have been widely used in previous studies to interpret and quantify the match characteristics of badminton players, and the technical aspect has gained the most interest of the academic community, especially the singles modality (Phomsoupha and Laffaye, 2015;Chiminazzo et al, 2018;Gómez-Ruano et al, 2020a). Notational methodologies have previously been used to depict and assess the technical characteristics (serving patterns, stroke effectiveness, the effects of context-related variables, and the dynamics of scoring performance) (Phomsoupha and Laffaye, 2015;Barreira et al, 2016;Chiminazzo et al, 2018;Gómez-Ruano et al, 2020a).…”

The purpose of this study was to identify the effects of the technical and context-related variables of last strokes in rallies on the point outcomes of both men’s and women’s players in elite singles badminton matches. A total of 100 matches during the 2018 and 2019 seasons were analyzed, and the data of 4,080 men’s rallies and 4,339 women’s rallies were collected. The technical variables including strokes per rally, forehand strokes, overhead strokes, and defensive action, and the context-related variables including game status, result against serve, importance of rally, and importance of set, were modeled with Probit regression modeling as the predictor variables. The binary variables of “winner or not” and “error or not” were considered the response variables. The results showed that defensive actions had the greatest impacts on the winners and errors of both the men’s and women’s singles players, and the forehand and overhead strokes were negatively associated with the winners and errors of the women’s singles players and the winners of the men’s singles players. No significant effects were found for the strokes per rally on the winners and errors of the men’s singles players, while significant effects were found for the women’s singles players. The context-related variables appeared to have positive effects on the winners and negative effects on the errors of both sexes. These findings can provide important insights for coaches and players to evaluate their performances of last strokes in rallies and to improve training interventions and match tactics and strategies.

“…The serve is very important in a game as being the star of a point, and being able to enhance the game. According to several studies, good serve lets an opponent work harder, which increases player's opportunity to obtain the score [3][4][5][6][7].…”

“…The starting and landing areas divide services into types: a short serve, a long serve, and a flick serve [8]. The good service allows an opponent to have difficulty in receiving and turning back the shuttlecock, thereby augmenting the opportunity to get a score [3,5,6,8].…”
