Cleo, badminton is, well, let's see... tennis with a high net but with a (I love this name, I want to make a porn site out of it) shuttlecock instead of a ball. Think of tennis with faster reactions and less sore elbows.

Most likely to be played well by asian people, as it seems to suit their physical abilities best. most of my asian friend who play have fun beating on the white guy when we play. Making the old guy run is fun (most of the people I play "hard" games with are 20-25 years old... so at 40, I am pretty much a dead duck!).

If you can find a video of olympic badminton (singles or doubles) you will be surprised and amazed how hard and how darn fast the game can get.

It's my only real exercise (besides the obvoius, typing).

Alex
