Shuttlecock kicking is not only of great fun, but also provides vigorous physical exercise.
Shuttlecock kicking, Ti Jian Zi, is another traditional
popular folk game. Some records date its origin as far back as the Han Dynasty
(206BC-220AD). This game prevailed during the Tang Dynasty (618-907), when
shops specializing in shuttlecocks business appeared. In the Ming Dynasty
(1368-1644), formal competition of shuttlecock kicking was held. In the Qing
Dynasty (1644-1911), shuttlecock kicking reached its climax in terms of both
making technics and the kicking skills.Besides, it’s convenient
to play, for only a very small area is needed to kick the shuttlecock, and
it can be practiced just about anywhere and anytime. The challenge of the
increasingly difficult levels of shuttlecock kicking has made it a popular
and timeless game among the Chinese. Financial crisis hits Shuttlecock | Posted on 15th of April 2009 | 7:42 am
