FAQ
With laws of badminton dictating specific rules for service in badminton, the court has two service lines, the short service line, which is 1.98m (6.5 feet) from the net, and long service line 0.72m (2.36 feet) in from the baseline, specifically marked for this purpose.
The outermost lines form the doubles court. So in a doubles rally, the shuttle is allowed to land anywhere on the court. The singles court is slightly narrower than the doubles court. The singles side lines are not the outermost lines, but the next ones in.
On the line is in, meaning if any part of the shuttle touches the line (even if it's the edge of the feathers) the point is counted. The light red shaded area indicates the service area. The shuttle must land in the diagonally opposite side of the court. The blue box indicates the doubles court for during general play.
The outer sidelines are marked 5.18m (17.00ft) apart and run parallel to one another. Any shot that lands inside the doubles sideline is considered “in” or valid for doubles matches. If the shuttlecock lands outside the outer sideline in doubles, it is considered out of play.
Baseline: This indicates the boundary of the court lengthwise. When a player is serving, they must stand behind this line. Also, if a player hits a shot that lands past the baseline, it is considered “out,” and that player loses the point. Doubles Line: This line is only relevant during doubles matches.
In singles the court is thinner, with the wide, outside 'tramlines' out of bounds. In doubles the court is full width and these tramlines are now 'in'. During service in doubles, the court is short, with the rear 'tramlines'at the back of the court, being out of bounds until the serve is returned.
- A legal doubles serve would land in the area bounded by the center line, the doubles long service line, the doubles side line and the short service line (short and wide). - Once the serve is made in doubles, the court area is bounded by the doubles sideline and the back boundary line.
The length of a badminton court is 13.40 metres, as mentioned above. There are two sets of sidelines, one for singles and one for doubles. The singles' sidelines are 5.18 metres apart, while the doubles sidelines run wide until 6.10 metres.
