Para Badminton
Para Badminton is an indoor racket sport played either by two opposing players (singles) or two pairs (doubles) positioned on opposite halves of a court separated by a net. Players hit the shuttlecock back and forth over the net, aiming to score points by landing the shuttlecock in the opponents' half of the court. A point is scored on every serve, and to win, players must secure two games of 21 points each, with matches played in a best-of-three format. Court size and flooring is dependent upon disability classification.
