I'm on the Badminton team at my school.
It's an extremely fast sport, when played competively. Someone on the team last year got a pretty nasty bruise where the cork tipped birdy was smashed into his arm. A cork tipped birdy. As you can imagine it was going pretty darn fast. Image
So, has anyone here ever played?

Not competitively, only with friends, and even then I'm not any good.

Nope. Never had an urge to be that gay.

I'll admit it was pretty fun, it is also a most excellent sport to play in a team of girls for other reasons than sport Image

When I was younger we had a badminton net in my back yard. I was never very good so we just played to see who could spike the the farthest/highest. Image

Oh dreaded -BRUISE- on your ARM from a badminton shuttle! Simply dreadful!

I'm glad I don't play such a physical sport. Savages.
