Have you ever played shuttlecock?it's interesing...

hi, I'm a little bit confused here, are you referring to badminton as most already mentioned and uses a shuttlecock? What I mean is are you referring to the game that is played with rackets similar to tennis but uses a shuttlecock instead of a ball? By your description, using coins and feathers and played by Asians and played in many different ways, you might be referring to what we call in the Philippines as "sipa" or kick, cause it is literally kicked and no rackets are used. Badminton shuttlecocks is made of feathers and rubber and has no metal in it, kindly clarify please

Hi Dear zhpshql! Do you mean shuttlecock badminton? We here in India use shuttlecock made up of feathers and pith bark / cork is used to play badminton! I have played shuttlecock badminton and India is having great players in this game who have got the Calibre of international standards ans they are good seeded players too! Thanks !

The official name for the game is Badminton. The shuttlecock is made of cork with feathers (or flights) arranged in a crown around the top. It is usually played indoors (because of the lightness of the shuttlecock) on a court with a net across the middle, something like a tennis court, and, like, tennis, can be played as a two player game (singles) or as a four player game (doubles). The game was developed by British officers in India in the 18th Century and eventually became called Badminton after the name of the house of the Duke of Beaufort, Badminton House, where the game was first formalised in 1872. The older English name for the game was 'shuttlecock and battledore' and the 'battledore' was a double-sided, skin covered bat. These days it is played with a racquet strung like a tennis racquet but lighter and with a longer handle.

Well I have played it before but I am not good at playing it. I think the international team for this one is sepak takraw but im guessing im wrong with this one.

I don't know how widely it's been played,but I really play shuttlecock sometimes,yet I'm not good at playing it.I think you it needs your ability of running and acting at speed.

Hi, we play badminton in England, but the shuttlecocks are made of plastic and rubber nowadays. Using a smaller racquet than in tennis, but a taller net :)

Every second house where I live will have a couple of bats and a box full of shuttlecocks. In the evenings I watch kids in the neighbourhood playing this game which we call badminton. A puppy here and a puppy there will chase the shuttlecock which is more interesting to watch! A Shuttlecock is also called Birdie.

Are you talking about badminton, because as far as I know, shuttlecocks are used in badminton. Badminton, actually, is one of my favorite sports. Lately, I have not been playing, since I still have a lot to do in school.
