BADMINTON History, background, rules and regulations, equipment.pptx

Badminton originated from ancient games played in Greece, China, and India and was developed into its modern form in British India during the 19th century. British army officers introduced a version with a net to England, where it was refined and named after the Duke of Beaufort's estate, Badminton House. The International Badminton Federation was established in 1934, and the sport became an official Olympic event in 1992.
