Relevant Background: “Simplified Rules of Badminton

The Laws of Badminton and Competition Regulations (linked here) in the BWF Statutes provide the

detail on every aspect of the game of badminton.

Below is a brief overview - simplified rules.

Scoring System

o A match consists of the best of 3 games of 21 points.

o Every time there is a serve – there is a point scored.

o The side winning a rally adds a point to its score.

o At 20 all, the side which gains a 2 point lead first, wins that game.

o At 29 all, the side scoring the 30th point, wins that game.

o The side winning a game serves first in the next game.

Interval and Change of Ends

o When the leading score reaches 11 points, players have a 60 second interval.

o A 2 minute interval between each game is allowed.

o In the third game, players change ends when the leading score reaches 11 points.

Singles

o At the beginning of the game (0-0) and when the server’s score is even, the server serves

from the right service court. When the server’s score is odd, the server serves from the left

service court.

o If the server wins a rally, the server scores a point and then serves again from the alternate

service court.

o If the receiver wins a rally, the receiver scores a point and becomes the new server. They

serve from the appropriate service court – left if their score is odd, and right if it is even.

Doubles

o A side has only one ‘service’.

o The service passes consecutively to the players as shown in the diagram.

o At the beginning of the game and when the score is even, the server serves from the right

service court. When it is odd, the server serves from the left court.

o If the serving side wins a rally, the serving side scores a point and the same server serves

again from the alternate service court.

o If the receiving side wins a rally, the receiving side scores a point. The receiving side

becomes the new serving side.

o The players do not change their respective service courts until they win a point when their

side is serving.

If players commit an error in the service court, the error is corrected when the mistake is discovered...” (https://system.bwfbadminton.com/documents/folder_1_81/Regulations/Simplified-Rules/Simplified%20Rules%20of%20Badminton%20-%20Dec%202015.pdf)

Teams alternate between   offense , when they attempt to score, and   defense , when they try to prevent the opposing side from scoring. A   field goal   is worth two points, unless made from behind the   three-point line , when it is worth three. After a foul, timed play stops and the player fouled or designated to shoot a   technical foul   is given one, two or three one-point   free throws . The team with the most points at the end of the game wins, but ...

It is played on a square  board  consisting of 64 squares arranged in an 8×8 grid. The players, referred to as  "White" and "Black" , each control sixteen  pieces : one  king , one  queen , two  rooks , two  bishops , two  knights , and eight  pawns , with each type of piece having a different pattern of movement. An enemy piece may be captured (removed from the board) by moving one's own piece onto the square it occupies. The object of the game is to " checkmate " (threaten with inescapable capture) the enemy king. There are also several ways a game can end in a  draw ... Chess sets   come in a wide variety of styles.
