To play badminton well, you need to master grip, serve, footwork, stance, and strokes.

• Grip: The forehand grip is like shaking hands with the racket handle. The backhand grip places your thumb against the handle for extra push.
• Serve: A legal serve must strike the shuttle below waist height. Short serves skim the net; long serves arc high toward the baseline.
• Footwork: Good footwork means moving fast while staying centred. The split step helps you react in any direction after each stroke.
• Stance: A balanced stance means you can push off quickly. Stay square to the net with your racket at chest height.
• Strokes: Clears, drops, smashes, and net shots form your attacking toolkit. Adjusting racket face and speed creates different shot trajectories.

Practising these five techniques builds a solid foundation for competitive play.

Badminton lessons in Norwich typically cost about £30/h per hour.

This rate varies based on several factors:

• The student's level (newcomer, club player, or competitive)
• The coach's experience and qualifications (club coach, performance coach, or ex-professional)
• How long and how often you train (single sessions, weekly blocks, or intensive courses)
• Where you train (private coaching, group sessions, or remote technique review)

Committing to a course usually works out cheaper per session.

Some tutors include a free trial lesson so you can check the fit before committing.

Five fundamental rules shape every badminton match: how you score, serve, play rallies, commit faults, and stay in bounds.

• Scoring: Games are played to 21 points using rally scoring. A two-point lead is needed, but 30 is the ceiling.
• Serving: The serve must travel diagonally into the opposite service box. Keep your feet planted and contact the shuttle beneath midsection.
• One hit per side: You get one touch per side to send it over.
• Faults: A fault occurs if the shuttle lands out, hits the net on a serve, or touches your body. If you brush the net while the shuttle is live, you lose the point.
• Boundaries: Singles use the inner sidelines, doubles use the outer ones. Service in doubles has a shorter back boundary than the rally.

Knowing these rules means you are ready for your first real game.
