    Badminton Strokes

    and Shots
    Overhead Forehand Stroke
    • is very common and is used most often in badminton.
    If you’re a beginner, learn how to perform this stroke
    first before proceeding to learn other types of badminton
    shots.
    In badminton, this stroke generates the most power.
     The power of a badminton forehand stroke comes from
    correct technique, NOT how much strength you exert
    into a swing. The larger the swing motion, the more
    momentum generated. Hence, more power.
    Overhead Backhand Stroke
    • The correct technique to perform a badminton
    backhand stroke is more complicated than a
    tennis backhand. The correct backhand
    technique is about generating power. Similar to
    the forehand, you make a complete backhand
    swing to generate the power to hit strong
    backhand shots.
    Underarm Forehand Stroke

    • The badminton underarm forehand stroke


    is performed when you take a shuttle in
    front of you (normally when your opponent
    hits a drop shot to you). It's fairly easy to
    inject power into underarm strokes
    (compared to overhead strokes).
    Underarm Backhand Stroke

    • This stroke is usually performed when your


    opponent hits a badminton drop shot to your
    backhand area at the front of the court. You don't
    need to swing too hard for an underarm stroke. A gentle
    underarm swing is sufficient to send the shuttle right to
    the back of the court.
    •Overhead forehand – the most common we see, the
    first to learn
    •Overhead backhand – many people’s main
    weakness
    •Underarm forehand – a low shot on the forehand
    side
    •Underarm backhand – a low shot on the backhand
    side
    Basic Shots in Badminton

    1.Clear
    2.Drop
    3.Drive
    4.Smash
    5.Lift
    6.Net Kill
    Clear Shot

    Clear is a defensive stroke in


    Badminton and played from the
    backcourt to backcourt. When you
    are not in your base position, you
    need time to gain your position.
    Drop Shot
    Drop is a semi-offensive shot in badminton.
    This shot is played from the mid or
    backcourt to the forecourt of your
    opponent’s court. An effective drop shot
    should be low over the net. The swing of
    your racket will be in the downward
    direction. A drop shot is played when your
    opponent is in the backcourt.
    Smash Shot
    Smash is the most powerful and killer shot
    in badminton. Here the swing of your
    racket will be downward as well as forward.
    You should hit the shuttle at the highest
    point possible. Whenever there is an
    opportunity, a good smash often brings
    points for you.
    Lift Shot
    • Lift is the most defensive shot in
    badminton. In the case of lift stroke, the
    swing of your racket is upward. So the
    trajectory of the birdie is higher even more
    than clear shot. When both you and your
    opponent are in front of the net exchanging
    the shuttle, a lift shot pushes your opponent
    on the backcourt. 
    Net Kill Shot
    • Net kill is an offensive shot, the
    purpose of which is to end the rally. This
    stroke is taken very close to the net to hit
    the shuttle downwards on the opponent’s
    side. This is a useful shot when you will get
    a weak, high net shot.
    Drive Shot
    The drive may be a defensive or
    offensive stroke. It is a flat hit, with
    the straight head of the racket, over
    the net pointing towards the mid or
    backcourt.
