What outfit to play badminton?
The golden rule in badminton is to wear loose, breathable clothing. Indeed, badminton is an invigorating sport in which you must be free to move. Badminton generally takes place in a room sheltered from the vagaries of the weather, so a classic outfit is sufficient. For the top, a T-shirt or polo shirt is perfect and for the bottom, several solutions are possible: shorts, elastane pants or skirt with shorty integrated for greater comfort. Opting for a track jacket is essential to stay warm and not get cold during breaks or at the end of a session. All these clothes are available

Another important point of the outfit: the shoes. You need a model that is both lightweight, with good ankle support and sufficiently reinforced to absorb shocks caused by jumping. Socks should also be comfortable and thick so as not to hurt the foot.
Which racket and shuttlecock to play badminton?
The racket must be adapted to your body type and your level. Depending on the model, in fact, the weight of the racket will vary. If you are new to this sport, it is better to have a racket that is not too heavy. The length of the racket must also be taken into account, it must suit the size of your arms. You also need to take an interest in the racket’s head or string. It will determine the power and precision of the game. For novices, a soft racket is ideal for gentle learning.
Then comes the choice of steering wheel. Here again, the range of choices is adapted to the level of the player and also to the frequency of play. A beginner doing a single session per week will go for a slow shuttlecock, recognizable by its green ring. After some progress, the steering wheel can be changed to a faster one.
What other essential accessories are there for badistas?
The grip is an accessory that can be very useful. This is a self-adhesive strip that you will wrap around the handle of the racket so that it best adapts to the shape of your hand. With the racket firmly in hand, your game will be more precise.
Don’t forget to invest in a suitable bag to transport all your equipment. The capacity can be up to 9 rackets, with a central pocket and two practical pockets on the side to store keys, shuttlecocks, water bottles, etc.
