Although badminton can be considered both an indoor and outdoor game, competitive badminton is normally played indoor due to the fact that the course of the shuttlecock can be easily altered by the wind*. This particular sport involves hitting the shuttlecock back and forth across the net to prevent it from coming into contact with the floor inside a court*. Shuttlecock is known as a “bird” or a “birdie”*. In the early 1900, badminton was known as a game of Poona in Malaysia which was set to gain immense popularity after a Malaysian named Lee Chong Wei won a silver medal by participating in this sport held at the Olympic Games in 2008*.
