This is how it is played
The court will be of 5.5X5.5 metres boxes (2) separated by a distance of 12.80 metres. There is no net.
Speeder or the Shuttle
Speeder is smaller and heavier, thereby more wind resistant which allows for long distance play.
Night Speeder
You can play at night too with this Night Speeder, which has a clear cap that illuminates in the dark.
The Raquet
This the raquet used for Speed Badminton. It is available in aluminum, graphite and kevlar (synthetic fibre).
