Badminton is often compared to tennis, but the games are still quite different.

The rallies of each point tend to be much longer in badminton than in tennis, and the game can be physically more tiring than tennis because the time between shots can be much longer. Badminton requires a wide range of motions, from delicate flicks of your wrist and or pressing of fingers to full-body smashes and clears. Speed, reaction, and endurance are all important to being a successful badminton player. Badminton actually requires the same explosive starts as squash.
