Shuttlecock Sport

Basic Explanation of Shuttlecock Sport Rules

R U L E 1 : COURT 
Court dimensions:
The court is rectangular with 6.10 m in width and 11.88 m in length. No obstacles should be in the 2 meter space around the court and the 6 meter space above the ground.

Boundary lines:

The boundary lines must be clearly drawn. The width of them is 4 cm and are included in the area of the court. The two long lines are called "Sidelines", and the two short lines are called "Endlines".

The line connecting the middle points of the two sidelines is called the "Centerline" which divides the court into two equal halves. On each side of the center line a restricting line is drawn parallel to it.

The restricting line is included in the restricted area. The distance between the center line and the restricting line is 2 m.

Serving area:

Stretching outside of the court, a short vertical line of 20 cm is drawn on each side of the middle point of each endline at a distance of one meter from the middle point. The two short lines are called serving area lines which are not included in the serving area. The area formed by the two serving area lines and their endless extension lines is called the serving area.
