Sport presentation
A racket sport contested on a court by either two individual players (singles) or two pairs (doubles) from opposing sides of a net. Players score points by hitting a shuttle with a racket so that it falls on the opposing side of the court. The rally ends when the shuttle touches the floor or if there is a fault. The shuttle is a projectile with unique aerodynamic characteristics that give it a much different flight trajectory than balls used in the majority of racket sports. The player or team that scores the most points wins the match.
Sport Association
