 HISTORY
The First games of Badminton were played in
China as early as the 12th century.
The British Military brought back a version of
badminton from India that was called “poona.”
The first game of badminton as we know it was
played inside on a rainy day in the Estate of
Badminton in England in 1873.
In 1893 the official rules of Badminton were
written and the game was officially born.
