Racquet sports. Badminton.BADMINTONscotland is the national governing body for the sport of badminton in Scotland. There are two major tournaments - the Scottish National Badminton Championships and the Scottish Open. 
Statistics such as the smash speed, above, prompt badminton enthusiasts to make other comparisons that are more contentious. For example, it is often claimed that badminton is the fastest racquet sport. Although badminton holds the record for the fastest initial speed of a racket sports projectile, the shuttlecock decelerates substantially faster than other projectiles such as tennis balls. In turn, this qualification must be qualified by consideration of the distance over which the shuttlecock travels: a smashed shuttlecock travels a shorter distance than a tennis ball during a serve. Badminton's claim as the fastest racquet sport might also be based on reaction time requirements, but arguably table tennis requires even faster reaction times. While fans of badminton and tennis often claim that their sport is the more physically demanding, such comparisons are difficult to make objectively because of the differing demands of the games. No formal study currently exists evaluating the physical condition of the players or demands during game play.
Pickleball is a racquet sport which combines elements of badminton, tennis, and table tennis.  
Racquet sport. Badminton is also a popular sport in Bangladesh and is played mostly in the winter season throughout the country. The Bangladesh Badminton Federation (BBF), formed in 1972, is responsible for managing and developing the sport. Badminton was long neglected in Bangladesh but recently the federation got some responsible officials and also managed to acquire sponsors for the sport. BBF now regularly holds many national and international championships and also organizes some talent hunt programs across the country
