Introduction of Shuttlecock

The shuttlecock, a traditional sport, has significant differences between the northern and southern schools. South shuttlecock and north shuttlecock, from the construction of the shuttlecock to the playing method have their own distinctive styles. According to the introduction of shuttlecock seniors, the southern shuttlecock was originally invented by a group of eight banners of the court in the Qing Dynasty.

They made important improvements to the northern shuttlecock by replacing the soft feathers with harder feathers such as eagle feathers or goose feathers; at the same time, they also removed the hard bottom of the shuttlecock with copper coins, and replaced it with softer and more flexible materials such as snakeskin or pig and sheepskin as the bottom of the shuttlecock. These improvements significantly improved the elasticity of the shuttlecock, making it crispier and more pleasing to the ear.

Therefore, according to the characteristics of the shuttlecock, the southern shuttlecock gradually formed a four or five people a round of kicking (also known as round shuttlecock), mainly to kick the main, each person a foot, free play.
