Students work individually and in teams to develop the key concepts that underpin badminton tactics and strategies. Through a series of structured physical activities, students develop badminton tactics and strategies and implement them in the game situation. Students devise and use a variety of creative thinking strategies and graphic organisers to analyse game situations, solve problems and make tactical and strategic decisions. Suggested duration: 4 – 5 100 minute sessions. For further information see the Teaching, learning and assessment activities section. Assessment This unit provides opportunities for students to demonstrate achievement of elements of Level 5 standards in Health and Physical Education and Thinking Processes. Students are assessed on their ability to: • develop strategic thinking and tactical knowledge to improve individual and team performance • apply creative thinking strategies to explore possibilities and generate multiple options • complete activities focusing on problem solving and decision making which involve an increasing number of variables and solutions. For further information see the Assessment section. Acknowledgment The VCAA acknowledges teachers from Sacred Heart College Geelong, Geelong High School, Sacre Coeur and St Johns Regional College Dandenong and coaches from Badminton Victoria who contributed ideas or materials that helped shape this unit. Badminton tactics and strategies – Victorian Essential Learning Standards – Level 5 Sample Unit © VCAA 2009 Page 3 Victorian Essential Learning Standards Badminton tactics and strategies provides opportunities to assess students against elements of Level 5 as detailed below: Strand Domain Dimension Element of standard Physical, Personal and Social Learning Health and Physical Education Movement and physical activity … combine motor skills, strategic thinking and tactical knowledge to improve individual and team performance. Interdisciplinary Learning Thinking Processes Reasoning, processing and inquiry … complete activities focusing on problem solving and decision making which involve an increasing number of variables and solutions. For further information see the Assessment section. Badminton tactics and strategies – Victorian Essential Learning Standards – Level 5 Sample Unit © VCAA 2009 Page 4 Teaching, Learning and Assessment Activities This unit provides students with the opportunity to develop appropriate badminton strategies and tactics and then implement them within the game situation. Students are also required to use creative strategies and thinking tools to explore possibilities and complete problem solving activities. They will reflect upon changes that occur in their ideas, badminton performance and evaluate their use of thinking tools and strategies. Prior learning - Health and Physical Education Prior to undertaking this task students should have developed a basic understanding of the knowledge and motor skills required to participate in badminton including: • confident application of motor skills; specifically serving, forehand strokes (underhand and overhead clear, drop shot and smash), net strokes and some backhand strokes • basic footwork and court positioning • current badminton rules and scoring • safety considerations. Prior learning - Thinking Processes Prior to undertaking this task student should have developed: • the ability to implement and evaluate the effectiveness of various creative strategies, thinking processes and tools (for example, questioning, brainstorming, mind mapping) • the ability to use information collected to develop concepts, solve problems or inform decision making. The activities include: • Activity 1: Badminton – What do I know and what to learn? • Activity 2: Badminton – What are the tactics and strategies? • Activity 3: Warm up – Shuttle runs • Activity 4: Developing a doubles service strategy • Activity 5: Attacking and defensive positioning during play • Activity 6: Minor game – Rob the nest • Activity 7: Badminton circuit • Activity 8: Selecting an appropriate tactic or strategy • Activity 9: Case study analysis • Activity 10: Round robin tournament • Activity 11: Final reflection Activity 1: Badminton – What do I know and want to learn? Activities Supporting the activities Assessment Provide students with an overview of the unit. Ask students to individually complete the know and want sections of the KWLH Organiser to determine level of prior knowledge. Facilitate a brief discussion about what students know and want to learn. KWHL (see Unit resources page 21). More information about KWLH organiser can be found in the Teaching and learning resource. (Students will complete the learnt and how sections, in addition to the final reflection questions at the conclusion of the unit.) Badminton tactics and strategies – Victorian Essential Learning Standards – Level 5 Sample Unit © VCAA 2009 Page 5 Activity 2: Badminton – What are the tactics and strategies? Activities Supporting the activities Show students a video or actual game of badminton doubles (5-10 minutes). Ask students to observe tactics and strategies employed by participants. Suitable footage can be found on Youtube by doing a search on badminton. Facilitate a discussion relating to tactics and strategies used in the footage. Possible questions to promote discussion: • Where did players hit the shuttle? • What types of stroke did they use? • What position on the court did they adopt? • How did they vary their strokes? • Why are tactics and strategies important to a players’ performance? Assessment For more information about tactics and strategies see – Badminton strategies and tactics (see Unit resources page 18). As a class ask the students to identify some simple badminton tactics and strategies they could use to improve both personal and team performance. Use an appropriate brainstorming tool to record possible ideas. Depending on time constraints, teachers could model or students could develop their own thinking tool to assist with brainstorming and recording tactics and strategies. Suggested brainstorming activities include: • Sunshine wheel. • Mind map. • Making a list. More information about brainstorming activities can be found in the Teaching and learning resource. Badminton tactics and strategies – Victorian Essential Learning Standards – Level 5 Sample Unit © VCAA 2009 Page 6 Guide students to decide on several basic badminton strategies that they will focus on to improve their badminton performance. Encourage students to explain when and how the strategy or tactic would be effective. Suggested strategies include: • Attacking and defensive positioning during service and game play. • Varying the use of strokes, also known as ‘mixing shots up’. • Varying placement of strokes to look for gaps in opposition side and front of court. • Returning to base, also known as recovering from a movement. Activity 3: Warm up – Shuttle runs Activities Supporting the activities Provide students with one or more shuttle runs to complete as a warm up. Shuttle runs should focus on revision of court markings, promoting use of space and returning to base / recovery position. Assessment Possible questions to encourage students to think about the above: • Identify the court markings for a doubles game? • How can effective footwork lead to improvements in your performance? Student resource – Shuttle run (see Unit resources page 22). Additional suggestions available at Badminton Victoria Inc, Badminton in schools program, pg 11. Badminton tactics and strategies – Victorian Essential Learning Standards – Level 5 Sample Unit © VCAA 2009 Page 7 Activity 4: Developing a doubles service strategy Activities Supporting the activities Ask two students to demonstrate on court where they would stand to serve. Use student demonstration to explain both attacking and defensive formations as service strategy. Assessment In doubles play, the tactic is to serve low so that the serving side would not be placed in a defensive position. The server positions themselves in the front mid-court area and their partner shall then cover the back court. This is known as the Attacking formation. If using the flick serve to prevent your opponent from rushing to the net, then it is advised to take up the side by side position, known as the Defensive formation. Ask students to practise each serving strategy. Students are to provide each other with feedback relating to the effectiveness of service, depth and angle. Students focus on service strategy and aim for targets. Set up targets on the court. Ensure the placement of targets encourages students to vary the angle and depth of their serve. Students play a minor game. Ask students to reflect on their thinking in their research log. Assume doubles position on the court. Each player has the service for 5 points despite winning or losing a rally. After 5 points have been played the service rotates to the next player, and so on. Focus of play is on the serve and not game play. Teacher observation of students‘ ability to appropriately apply double service strategy during the game situation could be used to assess Health and Physical Education – Movement and physical activity. See Assessment rubric (see Assessment page 13). Badminton tactics and strategies – Victorian Essential Learning Standards – Level 5 Sample Unit © VCAA 2009 Page 8 Activity 5: Attacking and defensive positioning during play Activities Supporting the activities Select students to play some demonstration points. It is important to explain to students that it is important to change position throughout the point. Assessment The defensive formation should be used when the shuttle is lifted down the opposition end. The attacking formation should be used when the team appears to be in control. That is when hitting the shuttle down using a push, smash or drop shot. Revise with students the current scoring system. In pairs students play a series of 5 minute doubles games. After each game, all players rotate one court to the right. This means that all students will change courts, however one pair on each end will rotate to the other side of the same court. Each court should focus on their serving strategy and when to use an attacking or defensive positioning. Teacher observation of students‘ ability to appropriately apply attacking and defensive positioning during the game situation could be used to assess Health and Physical Education – Movement and physical activity. See Assessment rubric (see Assessment page 13). Activity 6: Minor game – Rob the nest Activities Supporting the activities Ask students to consider the importance of developing an effective team strategy. Students play a modified game of Rob the nest. Assessment Explain the aim and rules of the game, being careful not to provide strategic insights. Rob the nest (see Unit resources page 17) teacher information. After the first game, students’ Rob the nest, Think, pair, share use Think Pair Share strategy (see Unit resources page 23) to reflect on what they learned worksheet. and to develop a strategy to improve their team’s performance. Badminton tactics and strategies – Victorian Essential Learning Standards – Level 5 Sample Unit © VCAA 2009 Page 9 Put strategy into place Reflect on usefulness of strategy. Completion of the student Think, Pair, Share can be used to assess Thinking Processes This activity could be used as a Reasoning, processing and warm up game at the beginning inquiry and Health and Physical Education – of the lesson. Depending on the duration of the lesson, Movement and physical activity. See Assessment students could complete the Think, Pair, Share student rubric (see Assessment page activity sheet in writing or 13). verbally as a class discussion. Refer to questions on the student activity sheet. This game could also be played during one lesson, before asking students to develop a strategy for homework. The next lesson students undertake the Think, Pair Share strategy before revisiting the game. Activity 7: Badminton circuit Activities Supporting the activities Provide students with Badminton circuit student activity sheet. Student activity sheet: Badminton Circuit (see Unit resources page 25). In groups of 4 or 5, ask students to complete the practical activities that focus on developing their strategic knowledge and tactical awareness. One group is allocated to each court. Allocate equal time to each activity. Provide students with the opportunity to reflect and evaluate their performance and consider areas of improvement. Explain and demonstrate each activity before commencing the circuit. You may wish to make diagrams to place next to each court as a reminder. Assessment Teacher observation of student performance during the circuit can be used to assess Health and Physical Activity Movement and physical activity. See Assessment rubric (see Assessment page 13). Badminton tactics and strategies – Victorian Essential Learning Standards – Level 5 Sample Unit © VCAA 2009 Page 10 Activity 8: Selecting an appropriate tactic or strategy Activities Supporting the activities Ask students to consider appropriate strategies and corresponding tactics. Sample answers to introductory questions: 1. With a drop shot. 2. Defensive formation / sideby-side. 3. Mixing up the shots and faking out the opposition by speed of the swing and direction of the eyes and body/hips. Possible questions to consider: 1. How do you attack the front part of the opposition’s court? 2. What position works best for you to defend the opposition’s shots? 3. How do you keep the opposition from knowing where you are going to hit the shuttle? 4. How do you select the right stroke or strategy for a given situation? Assessment Many options exist however need to READ the play, the speed and direction of the shuttle, the position of the opposing team. Activity 9: Case study analysis Activities Supporting the activities Assessment Teacher information may be Outline the benefits of using a presented on an overhead or graphic organiser to explore and evaluate your options prior as a written student sample. to making a decision on a tactic or strategy. Introduce students to the P.O.O.CH graphic organiser. The P.O.O.C.H. graphic organiser provides one way in which students can consider their options in a game situation. Provide a samples case study to each student. Case study analysis (see Unit resources page 27) worksheet. Ask students to consider alternative options of tactics or strategies and make a final choice with justifications for the choices. See Assessment rubric (see Assessment page 13). Ask students to complete the worksheet with their responses. Completion of this activity can be used to assess Thinking Processes - Reasoning, processing and inquiry. See Assessment rubric (see Assessment page 13). Badminton tactics and strategies – Victorian Essential Learning Standards – Level 5 Sample Unit © VCAA 2009 Page 11 Students compare their responses with one other person and complete the questions. You may wish to assign pairs or students may choose their own partner. At the end of the activity, students reflect on thinking processes and the application of tactics and strategies in the game situation. Visual learners may benefit from demonstrating the scenario on a badminton court. Remind students to consider a range of thinking strategies that would assist in generating multiple options. Similarly you may encourage students to generate their own graphic organiser or relevant questions as this is an important component of achieving an assessment ‘beyond the standard’ for Level 5 in Thinking Processes. Activity 10: Round robin tournament Activities Supporting the activities Assessment Sample Round Robin (see Unit resources page 19). Completion of this activity can be used to assess Health and Physical Education Movement and physical activity. See Assessment rubric (see Assessment page 13). Tell students that they will be participating in a badminton tournament and peer evaluation task. Provide students with the peer assessment criteria to use in evaluating effective implementation of tactics and strategies to improve performance. Explain to students that you will also be using this time to observe their motor skills and the implementation of their tactics and strategies. As such, they are responsible for the organisation, umpiring and scoring of the tournament. A student will be designated timer to ensure all games are played to time. Peer assessment criteria (see Unit resources page 31) Note: This assessment focuses on peer evaluation and it relies on students objectively assessing one another while displaying a sense of respect for the individual. Optional activity: Ask students to contribute to a class discussion that is directed toward the formulation of a peer assessment criteria sheet. Badminton tactics and strategies – Victorian Essential Learning Standards – Level 5 Sample Unit © VCAA 2009 Page 12 Activity 11: Final reflection Activities Supporting the activities Assessment Ask students to revisit and complete their KWLH graphic organizer; specifically the Learnt and How sections. KWLH organiser. Completion of this activity can be used to assess Thinking Processes - Reasoning, processing and inquiry. See Assessment rubric (see Assessment page 13). Ask students to complete the final reflection questions and consider the improvements they have made to their badminton performance, strategic thinking and tactical knowledge. More information about the KWLH organiser and question matrix can be found in the Teaching and learning resource. Ask students to also reflect on the effectiveness and importance of using creating thinking strategies and graphic organisers. Extension activity: Explain to students that an alternative to using the final reflection questions on the KWLH student activity sheet is to use a question generating tool such as a Question Matrix. Badminton tactics and strategies – Victorian Essential Learning Standards – Level 5 Sample Unit © VCAA 2009 Page 13 Assessment The Victorian Essential Learning Standards support a combination of assessment practices: • Assessment of learning (summative) • Assessment for learning (formative) • Assessment as learning (formative). The assessment tasks in this unit focus on collection of evidence of student learning for summative purposes. Some components could also be used to support assessment for learning and assessment as learning. Assessment guide When assessing student achievement, assessment criteria can be developed from relevant standards and associated tasks or activities. The table below shows the assessment criteria related to the assessment task/s and relevant standards and the expected evidence to be used as the basis for assessment. The table can also be used to assist teachers to make judgments about whether students are working at the standard (achieved the standard), progressing towards the standard (have not met expectations of the standard) or progressing beyond the standard (have exceeded expectations of the standard) for specific assessment criteria. It is provided as a guide only and may be adapted or modified to suit particular classrooms and/or students reporting. See the Assessment Resource for advice on developing rubrics.

Each game requires four teams of approximately 3-4 members. Instructions: Using half a badminton court, one team makes a nest in each corner. A racquet placed on the floor could be used as a nest. Place 8 shuttles in the middle of the court. Players line up behind their nest facing the middle. On “Go”, one player at a time runs out and collects a shuttle to bring back to their nest. They must tag the next runner before they can leave. The aim is to bring 3 shuttles back to their nest to win the game. Players may also choose to take shuttles from the middle or from other nests. Badminton tactics and strategies – Victorian Essential Learning Standards – Level 5 Sample Unit © VCAA 2009 Page 17 Badminton strategies and tactics Some ideas to support teacher knowledge Singles Badminton Strategies One simple badminton strategy often used in singles is to serve long and high to your opponent's back court. This will force your opponent to move back to the baseline and open up his forecourt. Throw in some disguised low serves occasionally and you might just catch your opponent off guard and win a point outright. Nowadays in professional men's singles, you seldom see them use the long serve. This is because the professional players are extremely athletic and possess great techniques. They can jump really high and smash powerfully even from the baseline. It all depends who you are playing with. If the high serve turns out to be your opponent’s favourite and puts you under pressure, use the low serve. Always try to hit the shuttle away from your opponent and make your opponent move around the court. One exception to this rule is that when you encounter a tall opponent, you might want to smash straight to his body to gain an advantage. Observe your opponent's strength, weakness, favourite shots and pattern of play. Use it to your advantage. Your aim is to make your opponent play a weak return, such as a weak backhand shot from the back court. If your plan works and forces a mistake or a poor return which you can make a 'kill', use it again. If it is not working then have the courage to make changes. The key is to be flexible. If you are in a difficult situation in the game and your opponent is not, you need to make time for yourself to get back to a favourable position. Do this by hitting the shuttle high towards the back of the court, preferably near the middle of the baseline. Your opponent will find it difficult to catch you out with acute angled returns from there. Remember always to get back to your base position in the midcourt area after making each shot. This is a position where you can possibly reach any of your opponent's shots. Doubles Badminton Strategies In doubles play, the tactic is to serve low so that the serving side would not be placed in a defensive position. If you are serving low, take position on the front and part of the midcourt area immediately. Your partner shall then cover the back court. This is known as the Attacking Formation (Front-Back). Badminton tactics and strategies – Victorian Essential Learning Standards – Level 5 Sample Unit © VCAA 2009 Page 18 Badminton Round Robin Teacher Support Information This round robin format is a guide only and may need to be modified to suit your class size and lesson duration. This round robin requires an 80 -100 minute lesson. This round robin tournament is based on 6 students per court. Each student will play a minimum of four, ten minute games. Each player will observe another player twice and will be observed twice. Draw Game Observer Observer 1+2 v 5+6 3 observes 1 4 observes 5 6+3 v 5+4 1 observes 6 2 observes 4 5+2 v 3+4 1 observes 2 6 observes 3 1+6 v 3+2 5 observes 1 4 observes 2 1+5 v 4+6 3 observes 5 2 observes 6 1+4 v 3+5 2 observes 4 6 observes 3 2+6 v 4+3 5 observes 2, 6, 4 or 3 Note: Observers are not responsible for umpiring or scoring. The server of each point should call out the score and all players are responsible for demonstrating good sportspersonship when umpiring. Scoring You may use a table such as the one below to record game scores, however it is the performance that is considered important and not the result of the game. The following points will be allocated to each person: • Win = 2 points • Draw = 1 point • Loss = 0 points Player 1 2 3 4 5 6 Game 1 Game 2 Game 3 Game 4 Total Player Score Peer Evaluation and Assessment Criteria Ideally, you would facilitate the class formulating a set of criteria that assesses the effectiveness of a strategy or tactic during a game situation. Similarly the production of a peer assessment sheet would be most effective if developed by the students themselves. A sample peer assessment sheet is attached for you to consider. The assessment You may use the below sample as a starting point. This assessment sheet focuses on the use of a tick and rating system to assess tactical play during the game situation. Badminton tactics and strategies – Victorian Essential Learning Standards – Level 5 Sample Unit © VCAA 2009 Page 19 Student instructions are as follows: During each of the 15 points, place a tick in the appropriate box each time the player being observed effectively uses a stroke or strategy. If the stroke or strategy is ineffective, then the observer places a cross in the box. At the conclusion of the game tally the ticks and crosses. The use of the tick and total sheet provides you with simple way to assess play. There is space for any comments you wish to record. Based on your observations you are then required to select the appropriate standard that reflects the player’s performance in this task. Finally complete the assessment summary questions. Badminton tactics and strategies – Victorian Essential Learning Standards – Level 5 Sample Unit © VCAA 2009 Page 20 KWLH badminton graphics organiser Complete the following KWLH graphic organiser. It will ask you to consider your previous knowledge relating to badminton and also what you would like to know and learn. What We Know What do you know about badminton? What We Want to Find Out What do you want to learn about? What We Learned Complete this section after the unit. When reflecting on badminton, what have you learned? How did We Learn It Complete this section after the unit. How did you learn during this unit? What tools, activities and processes assisted you in learning during this unit? Badminton skills and rules Badminton tactics and strategies: Ways to improve your performance Thinking tools to assist with problem solving and decision making in badminton Final Reflection: Which tactics and strategies were you able to implement most consistently during the unit? Provide some examples of situations where this occurred. In which tactics and strategies do you require further improvement in the future? How might you achieve improvements in these areas? Can you suggest other sporting situations where the tactics and strategies may apply? Identify the thinking tools (eg: KWLH organiser) that you used during the badminton unit. How effective were each of the tools in organising your thinking and ideas? How did they change your thinking? How did they assist you in making decisions about which badminton strategies and tactics to implement? The best thing I learned during this unit was…… Badminton tactics and strategies – Victorian Essential Learning Standards – Level 5 Sample Unit © VCAA 2009 Page 21 Shuttle Run Diagrams Divide class evenly into 8 groups (if you have three courts, use 6 teams and so on). During each run it is important that students carry their racquets and face the net, therefore causing forwards, backwards, sideways movements. (X denotes team members) Court run 1 When first member touches the net, the next can commence run. Court Run 3 Each student should have three shuttles. Two team members can run at a time. Court run 2 Each student requires three shuttles. Place one shuttle out at a time. Create your own Create your own your shuttle run to reflect court movements used in a game.

Court 1 Varying strokes 4 1 2 3 4 players on court Commence rally with a high serve. Players hit 6 consecutive underhand or overhead clears (forehand or backhand) and then include a drop shot. Variation: Commence with a serve. Players hit 6 consecutive underhand or overhead clears (forehand or backhand) and then include a smash. Court 2 Return to base / Recover from movement X = Feeder Feeder hits 4 shuttles to each player. Each shuttle is hit to a different area on the court. In between returning each shuttle, the receiver must return to the centre of the court. Player then picks up shuttles and returns them to feeder. Court 3 Vary placement of strokes X = Feeder Feeder hits 4 shuttles to the midcourt where receiver uses any stroke to hit shuttle to a target. Each stroke must be hit to a different target. Player then picks up shuttles and returns them to feeder. Variation: Feeder may call out a set pattern of targets to aim for. Badminton tactics and strategies – Victorian Essential Learning Standards – Level 5 Sample Unit © VCAA 2009 Page 25 Badminton Circuit Court 4 Vary type and placement of strokes Half Court Singles: Divide court into half and play singles. Server will need to serve within the same half. Players aim to first score 5 points and then rotate players. Court 5 Students form pairs and play doubles. During play each pair must actively try to vary their strokes and use correct positioning at all times. Players aim to first score 5 points and then rotate players. Badminton tactics and strategies – Victorian Essential Learning Standards – Level 5 Sample Unit © VCAA 2009 Page 26 Case study analysis – Badminton tactics and strategies Teacher Information Sample: Use the following graphic organiser to assist with organising your thinking as you consider a range of possible options (shots, tactics and strategies), in order to make an informed decision. The following tool is commonly known as P.O.O.C.H. (VCAA, 2008), it has been adapted to suit decision making in badminton. Problem You serve the shuttle low and toward the side line. Your opposition returns the shuttle with a forehand underhand clear over the head of your partner. They move into an attacking position. Assuming you can get to the shuttle, what are your options? Options Consider possible strokes or strategies. You may wish to brainstorm to generate multiple options. Hit drop shot over net into forehand court Outcomes CHoice What is your final decision? Why did you select this option over other ideas? Consider the positive and negative outcomes of this option? How might the opposition respond? Too slow to get shuttle Hit shuttle upward, so we can smash shuttle for winner Risky shot, may hit net and lose point Backhand clear to backhand court over head of player near net. Forces them to swap sides, may cause confusion. A high deep shot will give us extra time to assume defensive formation Opens up the forehand sideline of our court, must cover it Backhand clear to backhand court over head of player near net. Risky shot, would need to clear front player. If effective, they would find it hard to catch us out with acute angled returns Gives them lots of time to intercept and hit a winner. We need to assume defensive position. Badminton tactics and strategies – Victorian Essential Learning Standards – Level 5 Sample Unit © VCAA 2009 I chose to hit a backhand clear to the head of the net player. It is a shot that I am good at and by hitting it deep, it gives us more time to swap positions and assume defensive positioning – side by side. My partner must cover the forehand sideline as it will be open. The drop shot is not one of my strengths and therefore it was not selected. I did not choose the backhand clear to the middle of the baseline because it could have been intercepted Page 27 Case study analysis Problem Your opponent hits ah igh deep serve to the midcourt on your forehand side. What are your options? Options Consider possible strokes or strategies. You may wish to brainstorm to generate multiple options. Outcomes CHoice What is your final decision? Why did you select this option over other ideas? Consider the positive and negative outcomes of this option? How might the opposition respond? Badminton tactics and strategies – Victorian Essential Learning Standards – Level 5 Sample Unit © VCAA 2009 Page 28 Compare your decision with one other member of the class Do you agree or disagree with regard to the appropriate response to the serve?
