Badminton Court
Badminton is a racket, fast-paced sport where players hit a shuttlecock back and forth over the net. The game aims to prevent the shuttlecock from landing on your side of the court. A badminton court is a rectangular playing area used for badminton. It is divided into two halves by a net, each further divided into two singles or four double courts. Badminton courts can be found indoors or outdoors and are often used in schools, community centers, and private homes.

- Line Markings: A net divides the court into two halves, with each half further divided into two singles courts or four doubles courts.
- Net: The net is suspended between two posts at a specific height and tension.
- Surfacing: Badminton courts can be made of various surfaces, including grass, clay, hard court, and synthetic materials.
- Additional Features: Some badminton courts may include a windbreak, lighting, or spectator seating.
