Badminton All Day, All Night
“Indian Tennis”, my little brother will call it. He used to love the game of tennis but switched to tennis because what he calls the “sheer finesse” it is played with. Personally, I think he really just admired the game for its lightweight equipment since he found tennis rackets quite heavy.  He could play this game without mum having worry about him hurting himself. Kind of makes you aware just how much a person’s desire for a sport can be determined. Which brings us to our discussion today:The Badminton racquet.
Tumblr media
Parts of A Badminton Racquet
It is no secret that this is the key feature to this racquet sport besides the shuttlecock. The objective of a fixture in badminton is to hit a little object that takes after an elastic ball with a ring of plumes connected to it, called a shuttlecock (Alias shuttle or birdie), forward and backward over a raised net utilizing a racket. The badminton racket is lightweight yet solid. Way back when the racquets were made of wood, however, these rackets are presently made of innovative materials. Their parts, however, stayed the same over the transition. Let’s take a look at their defining characteristics
Material Composition
As I may have said earlier, customarily, badminton outlines have been made out of wood. Albeit still accessible, wood racquets have generally been surrendered because of the accessibility of lighter, more sturdy engineered materials. The modern-day badminton racquet may come in carbon fibre, lightweight metal alloys (like aluminium for instance) and earthenware productions (ceramics and the like). These are utilized as a part of most present-day badminton rackets.
Casing
The body of the racket itself is known as the casing (some too call it frame or outline). It comprises five key parts; the head, the stringed range, the throat, the shaft and the handle. As per BWF laws, the length of the casing ought to be no longer than 680 millimeters or more extensive than 230 millimeters. The heaviness of a completely hung casing ought to be inside 80 and 100 grams. Casings can come in different shapes, with bigger or littler sweet spots, and can be pretty much adaptable. This is contingent upon the materials utilized and their manufacture. There is a wide assortment of racquet outlines, in spite of the fact that as far as possible the racquet size and shape. Distinctive racquets have playing attributes that are of interest to various players. The customary oval head shape is as yet accessible, yet an isometric head shape is progressively regular in new racquets.
Head
The leader of the raquet is the ring of material that holds the strings set up. It can be oval or adjusted to be more circular depending on personal preference. It has openings in its edge right round through which the strings are fastened.
Stringed Area
The stringed territory is comprised of nylon or carbon fiber string that is entwined around the head of the racquet. Its measurements, as indicated by BWF rules, must not surpass 280 millimeters long or 220 millimeters in width. Thicker strings are tougher, however, numerous players lean toward the vibe of slenderer strings. String pressure is typically in the scope of 80 to 160 N (18 to 36 lbf). Recreational players for the most part string at bringing down pressures than experts, commonly in the vicinity of 80 and 110 N (18 and 25 lbf). Experts string between around 110 and 160 N (25 and 36 lbf). Some string manufacturers measure the thickness of their strings undergoing pressure so they are actually denser than designated when slack. Ash away Micro power is really 0.7 mm yet Yonex BG-66 is around 0.72 mm. It is regularly contended that high string pressures enhance control, though low string strains force an increment power. The views on this for, the most part, depend on unrefined mechanical thinking. It’s is like saying that a lower pressure string bed is bouncier and subsequently gives more power. This is in truth mistaken, for a higher string strain can make the shuttle slide off the racquet and consequently make it harder to hit a shot precisely. An alternative view proposes that the ideal strain for control relies upon the player; i.e. the pacier the player all the more precisely a player can swing their racquet, the higher the pressure for most extreme power. Neither one of the views have been subjected to a thorough mechanical investigation, nor is there clear proof for either. The best route for a player to locate a decent string pressure is to try one for himself or herself.
Throat
The throat interfaces the make a beeline for the shaft. It might be a different triangular piece at the base of the head, or may really be incorporated into the head itself. While not as important some racquets do feature it
Shaft
The shaft is the long pole between the throat and handle. As one made of its composite material, for example, graphite, the shaft can be stiffer or more adaptable in view of the necessities of the player.
Handle
Moving to the tail end of the equipment we have the handle. The handle interfaces with the shaft and is utilized to hold the racket. The handle is secured with a material called the grip. The decision of grasp enables a player to expand the thickness of a racquet handle and pick an agreeable surface to hold. There are two sorts of grips: towel holds are useful for engrossing dampness, however, may be changed habitually; synthetic grips, however, are less spongy yet more solid. Players may pick between an assortment of hold materials. The most well-known decisions are PU engineered grips or toweling holds. Grip decision involves individual inclination. Players regularly find that sweat turns into an issue; for this situation, a drying operator might be connected to the hold or hands, sweatbands might be utilized, the player may pick another grasp material or change his/her hold all the more as often as possible.
The Rules Governing the Badminton racquet
The Badminton World Federation (BWF) creates the laws that decide the parts, frame, shape, and weight of badminton rackets for rivalry utilize.
Racquets
·         Badminton racquets must be lightweight, with top quality racquets weighing in the vicinity of 70 and 95 grams (2.5 and 3.4 ounces) excluding grip or strings.
·         The prescribed material to be used ranges from carbon fibre alloy (graphite fortified plastic) to strong steel, which might be enlarged by an assortment of materials. Carbon fiber is recommended for its incredible quality to weight proportion, durability, and phenomenal dynamic vitality exchange.
Strings
·         Badminton strings must be thin, high-performing strings with thicknesses running from around 0.62 to 0.73 mm.
Grip
·         A player may be allowed to develop the handle with one or a few holds before applying the last layer.
·         There are two primary sorts of grips certified by the WBF. This is the substitution holds and over grips. Substitution grasps are thicker and are regularly used to expand the measure of the handle. Overgrips are slenderer (under 1 mm), and are regularly utilized as the last layer. Numerous players, notwithstanding, want to utilize substitution holds as the last layer. Toweling holds are dependably substitution holds. Substitution grasps have a glue backing, though over grips have just a little fix of glue toward the begin of the tape and should be connected under pressure; overgrips are more advantageous for players who change holds regularly, on the grounds that they might be evacuated all the more quickly without harming the basic material.
 Badminton Racquet Care
The hassle-free nature and playing techniques can easy make you underestimate the care for the gear of this sport. As a badminton game lover and promoter/activist, I truly adore just about every one of the types of gear in this sport, particularly the racquet, which frequently I regarded as my own particular sword on the court, and this high-cost hardware merits a decent care to draw out its life and keep up its execution.
·         Maintain a strategic distance from an immediate or aberrant contact to high temperature, for instance leaving your racquet inside a car. A car under the daylight over an hour may raise up to 70 degrees Celsius, this may enact the atom on the carbon made racquet to deform or de-shape the racquet outline considering the high tension it was strung with.
·         Instead continuously kept it on some place cool, dry and weight free. The greater part of us tends to leave the racquet inside our pack when we are not utilizing it or subsequent to playing. Dampness, sweat, microorganisms, and some weight may have gotten on the racquet inside the pack. Best place is, hold tight to the wall.
·         For recently strung racket, do whatever it takes not to amplify it utilization, similar to full power smash, drive, or baseline log. Continuously warm up the new string before you walk into the competition.
·         Continuously mind the string that hung on the racquet. Rewire the string if you notice any "going to break" signs. Try not to hold onto it until the point when the string breaks mid-game. As and when any indications of breaking are noticed, which means the pressure is not "balanced" on the edge This can abbreviate life of the casing.
·         Make sure to cut the string quickly after it broke on the diversion, as unbalance in pressure on the edge may prompt de-shaping of the outline.
·         Continuously attempt to utilize both sides of the string amid amusement, to drag out pressure and string life.
·         Most ideal approach to string your racquet on 4 ties, as on this technique, vertical and flat pressure are pulled in independent time. Additionally, one side of the string pressure does not influence on the other amid breaking of the string during game time.
·         To boost and keep up the shaft stiffness, don't generally twist the racquet when testing the flexibility.
These are the strategies by and large will prolong racquet life. With info like this,you’re game, set and matched to take on the world of badminton.

SCIENCE BEHIND SPORTS EQUIPMENT
Tumblr media
There’s a lot of things connected to science. Even at the simple things, it is applied and is being observed. When you try to look on the deepest side of an equipment or invented machines there are materials and substances that science has a big role to make it possible to work on its own. Now, we’ll talk about sports equipment in relationship with Science.
 Sports is an activity involving physical exertion and skill in which an individual or team competes against another or others for entertainment. But the activities on sports can’t be done without equipments. And those are invented with the materials that includes some of the elements from the periodic table.
Many athletes have happily embraced such technologies, utilizing sensors and chips to aid them in evaluating their performance. They have welcomed scientifically designed sports gear to assure their movements are as efficient as possible, consequently increasing their chances of winning medals and trophies.
 So how have new technologies improved sporting performance?
For Creating Smart Sports Equipment
Significant sports technologies, such as ‘smart’ sports gear, are immensely popular amongst athletes to analyze their performance. Such equipment includes sensors and computers as part of their training regime. Examples of ‘smart’ equipment technologies comprises of devices to measure reaction time and frequency of movements.
Important technology trends are taking the sports world by storm. From helping millions of people improve their fitness efforts to transforming professional and collegiate programs into powerhouses, technology is here to stay
Ex:
Injury Prevention Technology
As salaries and contract costs continue to rise across the board in professional sports, team administrators and owners eagerly seek out ways to keep their athletes healthy and in top performance condition. One fast-growing trend in 2016 will surface in the form of utilizing technology to help prevent injuries. Sports science companies including Kinduct Technologies, Kitman Labs, and CoachMePlus are delivering results by collecting data, optimizing workout plans, and focusing on in-depth assessments of individual athletes and the ways they move and perform.
These types of tools and more (including tools like wearable microchips embedded in clothing that monitor muscle fibers, heart rates, blood flow, and minute movement patterns) are quickly becoming standard issue for professional and college sports teams.
Sports and physical activities have been part of the natural endeavors of humans in earth. The primeval records of sports activities date back to the First Olympics Games in 776 B.C. in Greece. Since then, the human yearning for participating in sports activities and this activity has pushed civilizations to create more structure to more sports games.
Worldwide events such as the Olympic Games and the World Cup are manifestations of the global participation of humans in sports activities. Large countries and small countries around the world compete against each other for recognition for physical talent and achievement in sports. The competitiveness in sports pushes the individual athletes as well as teams of athletes to constantly enhance their performance in their activity or game.
Over the past 100 years the materials used in sports equipment have evolved from raw materials such as wood, twine, gut, and rubber to high-technology metals, polymers, ceramics, and synthetic hybrid materials like composites and cellular concepts.The design of sports equipment must rely on the knowledge of materials science, engineering, physics, physiology, and biomechanics and must consider various possible characteristics.
 Many types of sports equipment rely heavily on chemistry to help athletes reach peak performance and provide critical safety and protective functions along the way. Whether it’s a stadium infrastructure materials tennis ball or baseball bat, elite athletes from around the world depend on the products of chemistry. Stadium is a place or venue for sports, concerts, or other events and consists of a field or stage either partly or completely surrounded by a structure designed to allow spectators to stand or sit and view the event. There is chemistry or chemicals involved in stadium infrastructure. Following are the few chemicals used in stadium equipments, chairs, roofs, turfs.
Polyolefins – These are used in modern day stadium turfs
Polycarbonate – These materials are using for stadium roofing purpose
PVC – All most all parts of the stadiums are made up PVC material
Polyurethanes
 Polyurethanes, a kind of plastic, will play an important role this summer as they are frequently found in running and other athletic shoes, making them more resilient. In addition, polyurethane is found in a wide variety of popular sporting equipment, such as soccer balls, binders on running tracks and judo mats. A number of styles of sport flooring and pour-in-place track surfaces use polyurethanes, as well. These equipment necessities alongside such items as surfboard, roller blades, bowling balls and spandex apparel are all made possible in part due to polyurethane innovations.
Polycarbonate
 Polycarbonate, a strong, shatter-resistant plastic, can also be found in protective sports equipment. Polycarbonate is often used in riding and biking helmets, helping protect riders competing in equestrian and cycling competitions. Polycarbonate sunglasses and protective visors, which provide optical clarity as well as shatter-resistance, are worn by runners and rowers, just to name a few. Polycarbonate lenses can also be found in swim goggles.
 There are some examples of sports equipments that is made of materials connected to science. Archery is the art, practice, or skill of propelling arrows with the use of a bow. Badminton is a racquet sport played by either two opposing players (singles) or two opposing pairs (doubles), who take positions on opposite halves of a rectangular court that is divided by a net. It was not until the 1940s that acrylic courts were used in official tournaments. Now, the Australian Open and US Open are both played on acrylic courts. Vectran is a manufactured fiber, spun from a liquid crystal polymer (LCP). It is aromatic polyester produced by the polycondensation of 4-hydroxybenzoic acid and 6-hydroxynaphthalene-2-carboxylic acid.Vectran fiber is used in manufacturing badminton strings such as Yonex BG-85 and BG-80. Golf clubs have been developed and the shafts are now made of steel, titanium, carbon fiber, or other types of metals. The 1970 ball was made of leather but by 1974 the football had a "Durlast" polyurethane coating that provided waterproofing as well as protection from damage such as scuffs and tears.
Football contains; Outer layer – it is made of leather or plastic material; Internal layer – It is made of latex or butyl
Squash balls, being made of a rubber compound, are of fairly low resilience. When a squash ball hits the racket strings and the wall and floor of the court, some of this energy is transformed into heat in the strings, wall, floor, and surrounding air and some into sound, but most of it becomes heat in the ball itself.
This has two effects: the air inside the ball effectively becomes ‘pressurized’, and the rubber compound from which the ball is made becomes more resilient.
 These examples are the proof that there is a big relationship with Sports equipment and Science. Altogether, their materials have different roles just to make an equipment work and to be effective.

How to buy Badminton Racket String and keep it Strong?
Just as a car needs enough fuel to run, your badminton racket needs quality string to win you points. Ignore the fuel and your car will break down halfway. Similarly, ignoring broken racket strings can lead to you missing out on important shots and essential points. If you want to buy the best strings for your rackets, you may have the following questions in your mind:
1. How to choose a Badminton Racket String?
Even though natural gut strings were quite popular in the past, most professional players choose multi-filament synthetic strings for their badminton rackets. Many badminton racket strings are available in the market. And the sheer number of options can confuse a beginner. However, you can make a purchase depending on your goal. Are you looking for:
Durability
If you break strings on a regular basis, you need badminton strings that are slightly thicker than the average. By choosing a string model with a higher gauge, you will be able to enjoy extra durability. Any player who requires an all-around performance can opt for thicker racket strings such as Yonex BG 65 string (0.70 mm gauge) or Yonex Nanogy 95 badminton string (0.69 mm gauge).   The models are also great for beginners and intermediate players who may mishit the shuttlecock at the top and bottom of the racket frame.
Repulsion
If you want to enjoy a nice blend of durability and control, opt for racket strings that are slightly less thick than 0.70 mm. You may find that Yonex BG 80 Power string has 0.68 mm thickness but it can give you a slightly different feel and control. If you are looking for a significant difference, choose Yonex BG66 Ultimax racket string with 0.65 mm thickness. The ultra-thin gauge helps in delivering incredible repulsion combined with hard-hitting sounds. Alternatively, buy Yonex Nanogy 98 string (0.66 mm) for greater repulsion while playing defensive shots.
Control
Thinner racket strings allow you to play controlled shots easily. They make shots such as cut smashes and hairpins easier to play. However, ultra-thin string with thickness close to 0.60 mm means it will break more frequently. To solve the problem, an intermediate player/advanced player can opt for Yonex Aerobite racket string that includes a hybrid string combo of 0.61 mm (cross string) and 0.67 mm string (main string). It offers better hitting sound, higher repulsion power, improved control and higher durability because of the innovative combo.
Another option is the Yonex Nanogy 99 string that makes hairpin net shots and cuts easy. Ideal for control players, the string is slightly thick (0.69 mm). However, with Yonex’s original braided fibre and special coating of nylon, it offers incredible control over the shuttlecock.
2. What is the Ideal String Tension for you?
It is a common myth that the string tension of your badminton racket should be as high as possible. Check the recommended tension-level available on your racket. The available range will give you an idea of stringing the racket.
Remember that the ideal string tension depends on your skills and comfort. As a beginner, you do not have enough strength to play powerful shots in quick succession. During your initial playing days, lower string tension (16-24 lbs.) is useful as it leads to a bigger sweet spot and increased flexibility.
For an advanced player, a higher string tension (24-30 lbs.) is ideal because it delivers higher control and better hitting feel. If you are comfortable with advanced badminton shots and have developed a solid hitting technique, higher tension will benefit you in controlling your shots.
3. How to make Racket Strings last longer?
When you spend time researching the best racket string and the ideal string tension, you definitely want the racket strings to last long. Let’s learn how to keep the integrity of badminton racket strings intact.
Extremely High String Tension
Stringing the racket at a very high tension can affect the durability of the strings. So, you must always check the recommended string tension of the racket before making any changes. Another essential tip to follow while stringing the racket is to choose a professional restringing service. Having someone with years of stringing experience at your beck and call will ensure that your racket remains in top shape.
Ultra-Thin String
Badminton players understand that ultra-thin string offers a great playing experience but its durability is questionable. If you choose an extra-thin string from a generic manufacturer, chances are that the string won’t last for long. To avoid the problem, buy quality badminton racket strings from a well-known brand.
Wrong Hitting Technique
If you hit the racket with extreme power, there are chances of the badminton strings getting damaged in the process. If you play hard-hitting shots on a regular basis, the strings are bound to break. Make sure that you hit the shuttlecock with adequate power and avoid slicing the shuttlecock (hitting the feather or the upper part of the cork). It will prolong the life of the strings.
Damaged Grommets
Grommets are useful in increasing the life of the racket. If any of the grommets are missing, the frame may cut the string. And, if you string the racket very tightly, the frame may get damaged as well. So, it is essential that you check for broken grommets regularly. Keep a new grommet strip with you. It doesn’t cost much and will save you from stringing your racket every now and then.
Unsuitable Storage Technique
One of the worst things that you can do to damage the strings is to leave it in the car. Always store your badminton racket at room temperature where it is unlikely to be affected by extreme weather conditions. In cold climates such as the USA and Europe, racket strings can contract and become brittle. So, it is better to use a thermal badminton racket bag for travelling and storage purposes.
Badminton Racket Strings: Research, Decide and Win!
Buying a badminton racket doesn’t mean your game will improve. You need quality racket strings to ensure consistent shots every time. So, next time you are in the market for buying badminton strings, do not forget the tips mentioned in the guide. Spend time finding the ideal racket string and take precautionary measures to keep it strong.
Happy playing! Happy winning!

String it Strong: Tips for Restringing your Badminton Racket
Do you feel that your shots are losing control? Are you unable to hit the shuttlecock like you used to do in the past? Well, the problem may not be your skill but the strings. As a badminton player, you need to make peace with the phenomenon of reduced string tension. If you are playing regularly, you may need to restring your racket every three months or less.
What are the Reasons for Restringing the Racket?
Broken strings are not the only logic behind restringing your badminton racket. There are many reasons that can compel you to restring the racket.
a. Take care of loose strings that make your shots clumsy. b. Customize the feel of the racket depending on your improved playing skills. c. Restringing the racket results in a smaller sweet spot. For intermediate and advanced players, a smaller spot allows them to control shots and play the game with better control.
Essential Badminton Restringing Tips to follow!
1. Inspect your Racket
Whether you choose to restring the racket or hire a professional to do the job for you, racket inspection cannot be ignored. If any part of the frame is damaged or collapsed, it is best to buy a new racket. Many players get caught in the dilemma of whether or not to buy a new racket. Avoid the confusion of choosing between restringing the racket and replacing it by understanding your needs. If your skills have evolved, buy a new racket.
2. What kind of String do you want?
In the olden days, it was common to use natural string made from the gut of animals. However, for ethical reasons and convenience, today’s players prefer synthetic strings. You will find a wide range of badminton racket strings with different features to satisfy your needs.
The basic three type of strings depend on the core material. It is the key load-bearing element that determines the power of the string. It is covered by a jacket that builds texture and offers a protective surface.
Monofilament – It comes with a single core made up of heavy fiber.  The string is usually stiff and offers better control. As it is built with the same gauge, it does not break easily but can become loose over time.
Multifilament – When several fibers are twisted, it is called a multifilament string. It offers more flexibility and power to the player. If you play regularly and break the string constantly, choose this option.
Microfilament – Its core is made up of different fibers but they are even slimmer than multifilament string. It has great stretch-ability. The thinner string results in reduced wind resistance. It means you can hit the shots faster.  
Nowadays, multifilament strings are the most common. They offer a balance of power, control, comfort and durability. You can find a wide range of multifilament racket strings from world-leader Yonex. For example, Yonex BG-80 Power string is built with nylon multifilament and it delivers a solid, powerful feel. If you are more of a control player, Yonex Nanogy 99 badminton string will let you maneuver shots in a better way.
3. Decide on the String Tension
We now know that it is not always better to opt for higher string tension. Most beginners and intermediate players can perform well with a string tension lower than 24lbs. If you need a larger sweet spot, go for lower tension. If you want more control over the shuttlecock, higher string tension is recommended.
When it comes to determining the ideal string type and string tension, it all depends on your preference and level of skill. So, consider different rackets and then chose one that delivers the best shots.
Pro or on your Own: What should you choose?
Now, you can restring the racket on your own. It doesn’t require a large number of tools. A pair of pliers and scissors are enough for the job. But you need to know whether you want to go for a single piece of string or two. Usually, it doesn’t lead to much difference in performance although if you have a preference, it is better to string the racket according to your choice. Also, check whether the grommets are broken.
If you want to avoid the task and seek an expert, you will find many online badminton restringing services near you. Professional stringers use electronic stringing machine to give you a perfect finish and better performance on the court.
