Badminton

This is a racquet sport played by either two opposing players (singles) or two opposing pairs (doubles), who take positions on opposite halves of a rectangular court that is divided by a net. Players score points by striking a shuttlecock with their racquet so that it passes over the net and lands in their opponents' half of the court. A rally ends once the shuttlecock has struck the ground. The shuttlecock may only be struck once by each side before it passes over the net

**Table Tennis

also known as ping pong, is a sport in which two or four players hit a lightweight, hollow ball back and forth with paddles. The game takes place on a hard table divided by a net. Players must allow a ball played toward them only one bounce on their side of the table and must return it so that it bounces on the opposite side. Points are scored when a player fails to return the ball within the rules. Play is fast and demands quick reactions.

Students are taught ground strokes, volleys and serves. Also, students work on improving specific strokes and match play.
