The scoring system in badminton for Single & Doubles

Scoring System

 The best of three 21-point games makes up a match.

 Every time someone serves, a point is scored.
 A successful side gains a point for the rally.
 When the score reaches 20, the team that takes a 2-point advantage first wins the match.
 When the score is 29, the team scoring the 30th point wins the match.
 In the next game, the victorious team gets to serve first.

Interval and Change of Ends

 Players take a 60-second break when the top score reaches 11 points.
 There might be a 2-minute break between each game.
 Player’s switch ends when the leading score hits 11 points in the third game.

Singles

 The server serves from the appropriate service court at the start of the match (0-0) and when their score
is level. The server serves from the left service court when their score is odd.
 After scoring a point, if the server prevails in the rally, the server then serves again from the secondary
service court.
 The winner of a rally earns a point and takes over as the new server. If their score is odd, they serve
from the left service court; if it is even, they serve from the right service court. These are some
badminton singles service rules of scoring.

Doubles

 A side only has one "set."

 The service is sent to the players in a straight line, as seen in the diagram.
 The server serves from the right service court at the start of the game and when the score is tied. The
server serves from the left court when anything is strange.
 The serving side earns a point if it prevails in a rally, and the same server then serves from the
alternative service court.
 A point is awarded to the receiving side after a winning rally—the serving side changes to the receiving
side.
 Until their side wins a point when their side is serving, the players do not switch to their respective
service courts.

Undue Delay of a Serve

  When undue delays occur the service judge will swing their right arm to the left to indicate that a player
has been penalized for undue delay.

Foot on the Service Line or off the Ground.

 The server and the player receiving the serve should stand in the diagonally opposite service courts and
must not tread on the service court boundary line. The serve must have both feet in contact with the
ground.
 The service judge will stretch out their right leg and signal a fault with their right hand because a
player’s feet were off the ground or they were on the boundary line.

Serve fails to hit the bottom of the shuttle

 If a player fails to hit the bottom of the shuttlecock when serving, the line judge will open their right
hand and lightly touch the palm with their left hand to indicate a service fault.

Serve too high

 When the server’s racket hits the shuttlecock, the entire racket should be below waist-height therefore,
if the racket is too high when the serve is made, the service judge will place their right hand
horizontally across their ribs.

Racket Handle should Face Up

 When a serve is made the racket handle must be facing down at the moment the shuttlecock is hit. If the
racket handle is facing up when the shuttlecock is hit the service judge will lift up their open hand with
palm facing out to indicate a fault due to the racket handle facing up.

Double Movement of the Racket

 If the player serving has moved the racket to the shuttle but not attempted to hit it, it is a fault. The
serve judge shouts “fault” and holds out their right hand in front and moves it back and forward

Shuttle Lands Outside the Line

 If the shuttlecock lands out of bounds the line judge must loudly and quickly shout “Out” so that both
players and spectators hear, and will stretch their arms out to the side level with each other while
looking at the umpire with a fixed stare to ensure the umpire is clear about the decision.

Shuttle Lands Inside the Line

 If the shuttlecock lands inside the line, no announcement is needed, the line judge will just point their
right hand at the line.

If the Line Judge Does Not See

 If the line judge can’t see the shuttlecock clearly (because their view is blocked by a player’s body or
other unavoidable situation), as they were unable to see whether the shuttlecock landed in or out, they
should cover the eyes with their hands to let the umpire know.

Misconduct

 Umpire must raise their right hand above their head with a yellow card for the first infringement. If the
player proceeded again with misconduct, the umpire would raise a red card. Both responses require the
umpire to say “come here”

Disqualification
  The Referee decides to disqualify a player. The umpire says “come here” and raises their right hand
with a black card

Challenge for Review

 When a player wants to challenge a call, the umpire raises their left arm and at the same time they state
the “players name challenges, then followed by whether it was called in or out” at the time.

Indicating the Serve

 Umpire announces score after each point. When a side loses a rally and thereby the right to continue
serving, the umpire has to call: “Service over” followed by the score in favor of the new serving side; if
necessary, the umpire has to at the same time point the appropriate hand towards the new server and the
correct service court. Left hand for serve on the left and right hand for server on the right.
