“The Double Game in Badminton” is a comprehensive guide to playing badminton “doubles”. Badminton is a racket sport whereby a shuttlecock is hit back and forth across a net. Although larger teams are possible, it is most commonly played in "singles" (with one player per side) and "doubles" (with two players per side). This volume contains all the information needed to learn how to play badminton in pairs, and as such it is highly recommended for new doubles players. Contents include: “Side by Side Formation”, “Back and Front Formation”, “Doubles, or the Four Handed Game”, “Combination”, “Double Teamwork”, and “Badminton”. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on the history of rugby.
