How to Start

Getting to know Speedminton® - Anywhere, Anytime

With your Speedminton® equipment, you can play anywhere and anytime! All you need is two rackets, a Speeder™ and there you go. The Speeder™ is specially designed for outdoor play, wind resistant up to wind force 4 and a stable flight path up to 100 feet. Play with no limits; in the park, on the street or in the backyard - fun is guaranteed. You don't need a net and with the NIGHT Speeder™ and Speedlights, you can even play in the dark.

To play a match, use the Easy Court, or mark out two squares of 18 feet (the playing court), at a distance of 42 feet.

Claudia Paul, P.E. Teacher;
“I love the game. It is quick, fun and flexible. It does not need the gym facilities for success. Also, I love that it is a new family game to be introduced at family get togethers. Anything is better than television and computers.”

Speedminton® Quick Start

  1. Start hitting the FUN Speeder™ (red coat, yellow cap)
  2. Have a distance of about 15 feet between you and your partner.
  3. The serve has to be made at waist level.
  4. When you get used to the Speeder™, increase the distance to your partner up to 30 feet.
  5. Now switch over to the MATCH Speeder™ (yellow coat, red cap). The is distance to your partner should be about 40-50 feet.
  6. When in strong wind, use a wind ring over the Speeder™ cap.
  7. Wanna play at night? Use the NIGHT Speeder™ (yellow coat, transparent cap) and insert a Speedlight. "Bend" the Speedlight and push it firmly into the cap and you are ready. Fun from dusk 'til dawn!
