Setting Up a Badminton Court

Badminton has its own nets and posts; the net is much lower than for volleyball. Sometimes a sports centre will set up the court with a slack volleyball net instead, because the staff don’t know anything about badminton. Ask for proper badminton posts and a badminton net. If you need to set up the court yourself, then check three things: The net covers the whole width of the court. The net is pulled tight, not slack. The net is in the middle, so that both court halves are the same size. Often it can be hard to see the badminton court lines, because lines for other sports are also painted on the floor. The badminton court lines should all be in one colour, so try to focus on that.
