Experts say that the origin of badminton is closely related to the game of shooting chickens.
There are rich cultural treasures buried among the ethnic minorities in Qiannan Buyi and Miao Autonomous Prefecture of Guizhou Province, and "Beating Chicken" is one of them. Experts believe that "chicken shooting" is obviously closely related to badminton.
Liu Shijie, director of the Literature and History Committee of the Political Consultative Conference of Qiannan Buyi and Miao Autonomous Prefecture, said that "playing chicken" is also called "playing badminton", and badminton is made of chicken feathers, cowhide or leaves wrapped in copper coins.
Handpaddle is directly hit by hand, and then gradually developed to some places using instruments and hitting with boards. The size and style of the board are somewhat similar to those of the table tennis bat, and the playing style is the same as that of badminton, except that there is no net in the middle.
Liu Shijie said that this sport is the source of modern badminton, or the original remains of badminton. The badminton entry in the sports dictionary says: "Badminton originated from a game similar to shuttlecock and is very popular in Asia and Europe. It is said that this game was introduced to Britain by retired British officers who came back from India in 1873. " As early as 18 12, British and French missionaries began to preach in Duyun and Fuquan in southern Guizhou.
Liu Shijie said that later, the sports association in Duyun found that this game method was simple, did not need special equipment, and was easy to popularize, so they took a pair of wooden clappers and a shuttlecock with them when they left, and formulated a new game rule based on this game method, named it "feather ball". This name is the same as that of badminton at that time, and it was changed to badminton. It can be said that from the form and content of the competition to the name of the competition, there is obviously a close inheritance relationship between "chicken shooting" and badminton.
